Forums - Sales Discussion - Prediction: Wii U to dominate & PS4 to fall behind - Jan. 2013

People can't seem to understand that most of wii sales came from people that are not gamers and could'nt   care less about the wii u, most people that bought the wii were just amazed by the wii mote, now its over with, its not like ps, ps2, ps3 where it has its core audience that will keep on coming back, if sony luanched at 299-399 with out blue ray and better graphics it would have destroyed 360 in sales and this is coming from a 360 only owner but now sony opened up the market for microsoft and will have to share it with them for a long time but sony will out sell them by 10 million cause of japan and europe.

Wii U is getting destroyed by Ps3 in sales now, what on earth makes you think it even stands a chance against PS4?



PS4 will destroy the wii u in capabilities and sales.

Wiiu is being outsold by the vita in many area's, and you actually think it will dominate?



im only seeing europe as a full territory that the vita is winning in sales regularly.

in the 6 weeks of sales the wii u has already sold around half of what the vita has done in nearly a year.

realistically though, i believe the vita is not a good indicator of the success of sony's next platform.

The only prediction I feel someone confident in right now is that the 720 will not "win" next generation. I only say that because, in the present, Xbox is the weakest brand in Europe, Japan, and most of the rest of the world. In addition to that, Kinect (and probably Kinect 2.0) seems to have a lot less appeal outside of North America. I think that will be a trend that continues in the future.



Nice Prediction, but we have to consider that Sony and Microsoft still have not commented as much as Nintendo about the next Gen, so...Probably Nintendo will be predominant at this one, probably...

Anyway, even though PS4 games are still unknown, I think it'll will be a failure at this time, only PS4 not 720. Let's wait to see it.

720 has a much better chance then the wii u, where its a huge failure in the uk and will probably be a failure in the usa.



You had me until this:

"In the U.S, I see it being a battle between Wii U & 720. The Wii U will sell slightly better IMO with the 720 in a very close 2nd. Sony is losing presence in the U.S."

No chance.

Anyway, I agree about the Wii U dominating the PS4 in Japan. 720 will sell more than both the Wii U and PS4 in the US, and Europe is anyone's guess between the 720 and PS4.

That's how is going to end.

Nice one!
