Oh those malicious Sony baddies, clearly the MS and Nintendo fans on this forum are saints undeserving of such a lambasting from those horrible individuals. I bet they have everything to do with all those nasty articles as of late too. Oh dear, my tinfoil hat cut the circulation to my brain and with it my ability to come up with a rational thought again.



exactly.

OP - you must have selective memory with kowenicki... You guys must ignore evidence to the contrary all the time.

PS3 fans are celebrating end of gen victories. They no longer want to align launches, they dont want to compare lifetime with Wii and they have an easy target; The Wiiu. But never fear, it will be a shot phenomenon when they realise the PS3 sales are in rapid decline. They get very excited about any success and get a bit irrational in their predictions and celebrations for a little while. Some of them think the Ps3 sales will be up this year or flat. Its quite amusing really.


Not gonna lie..I'm in fact really enjoying your rants about ps3 which seems to be appearing all over the forums these past few days :D what's up kowen

Most people do realize it's going to be down yoy...so not sure why you are generalizing so much. Are ps3 fans enjoying the sales? sure, they have been great. Are we enjoying the fact that we get so much great high quality software at the end of the gen? Most definitely. I think only one person told you something along the lines of being up yoy (or flat was it) right? You take that and generalize and run with it..very amusing indeed

oh and for the record wiiu should be compared to the wii :) and as for Life time sales ps3 will end up doing rather well I reckon..much closer to overall wii numbers than you may think

Rants? simply responding to over excited ps3 fans posting nonsense all over the place.

Sales are great? Did worse than the 360 in the same aligned year (thought I'd use a PS3 fan classic).  Not that great.  Quite a few people have said flat is a posibility actually.

How close to wii numbers?

you see it's like this..the more ps3 fans 'celebrate' as you say..the more you 'talk' lol 

Yeah sales are great 0_o the gen is ending and it's showing some really fine sales despite not having any heavy hitters or a price cut last year. Surely your superior analytical mind took into consideration all factors :P and the align year stuff really seems to have bugged you all these years, it's good to let it all out. Go right ahead, tell me how you really feel

as for how close to wii numbers...I'm guessing 10-15mill close to it. Something not many would have guessed the way the gen was going earlier

I don't see the problem, as long as the PS3 is doing good and the Wiiu is doing bad, then it's not biased at all, it's just the truth.

The WiiU isnt doing bad.


Constant doom threads across the internet, lackluster sales and the lack of 3rd party support make's me believe that.

For a next generation console the wiiu isn't doing that bad at all, but for it's price, it is doing quite bad.

Bolded: at which number it isn't doing bad? And are you willing to apply the same number to judge sales of PS4, Nextbox, 3DS and PSV?

I agree..it should be compared to the wii


So when we compare the WiiU to the Wii, the WiiU would be a "failure".

But when we compare PS3 to the PS2..is the PS3 a "failure" too?

 

Imo it would be really stupid to call the WiiU and the PS3 failures because they sold (or will sell) less than their predecessors.

@bolded: yep sadly that's how quite a few approach the ps3 situation. Not saying I agree (I don't)

Yup, just watch how quickly those who talked about Ps3 losing market share will change their tones. The Ps3 was suppose to match the Ps2 in sales so I expect the same for the Wii u

Wow, dude, you have put too much thought into this . Your the first to over generalize in every thread and you wonder why people criticize you so much!?!?! Not only you of  course, but you seem like the most chronic analyzer of the Sony fanbase as of late. 

OT: I rarely criticize Nintendo anymore, as I see it as pointless. When I do it is because I always felt the are they are deserving of third place in terms of overall appeal to me. That is all.

Here it is well known that arguments constantly change when it suits ones agenda.

PS3 I have heard will be a loser bcause compared to last gen Sony lost marketshare. We must now apply this rule moving forward.

Just about anyone who has visited those guys in the Vita thread will tell you that they are probably the nicest bunch here on VGC. They know the system doesn't sell great, but they don't care. They have fun, they see a bunch of games being released or announced. They know that as long as the games come, the sales are secondary to them. It's a great community over there and there is a reason why it has grown to become so large. In fact it is larger than anything that has come before it on VGC. Very upbeat attitude in there. No gloom, no frustration.

Yeah they have a few guys who get a bit worked up, but the vast majority are not full of this pent up frustration you are alluding to.

 

In fact, in the last week we had a thread  to complain about how mean the mods are to MS fans. Now we have a thread about how mean Sony fans are. How irrational they are. How they this and how they that. You name it, they've probably been labeled it.

You know what I haven't seen? A thread to complain about MS fans. A thread to complain about Nintendo fans. A thread to complain about how the mods are SO unfair against the Sony fans.

Know what I did see though? A thread by a Sony fan to complain about a select few Sony fans who make those predictions you are generalizing the entire Sony fanbase for making.

 

As for the OP and others thinking that all these Sony fans think the WiiU is a failure or a flop. Check Jay520's thread. It is a widely accepted belief that Sony fans are the majority on this site right?

http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=152293&page=1

His poll was 49 Yes, 41 No it's a MAJOR flop and 170 voting other because they obviously didn't believe it was a flop.

 

Which means that everyone should quit generalizing and move on. Grow thicker skin. Of course we will always have a select few in each camp who blow things out of proportion or enjoy getting under other people's skin, but those people are on all sides and it is in everyones best interest to just ignore it.

This place is nothing compared to N4G when it comes to pro-Sony bias.
