Vita has already gotten solid 3rd party support, and it hasn't helped at all. 


Not that I don't agree with the general sentiment of your post, but this sentence seems horrifically out of place.  What's the "solid" 3rd party support Vita has gotten?  

In the west, arguably Assassin's Creed, Call of Duty, Need for Speed plus Madden & FIFA.  All games which Wii-U has it in its launch window.  Yes, the Call of Duty & Assassin's Creed were original games, but are you really trying to say that Black Ops Declassified was an example of "solid" 3rd party support?

In Japan, I only really see Persona & Miku (possibly Gundam & Tales of Innocence as well).  None of them even remotely as big an IP as Dragon Quest which Wii-U is again getting in its launch window.

Other than that, it's pretty much just ports.  Which is simply a product of having been on the market for 1 year 2 months instead of just 2 months (i.e. I'm sure Wii-U will have similar levels of "solid 3rd party support" when it's been on the market for a year and two months).

Like I say, it's not that I don't agree with the general sentiment of your post - Wii-U will pick up steam once it gets proper first party titles, and I'm sure it'll overtake Vita at that point.  I just don't really see why you inserted that sentence I quoted.  3rd party support for Vita has been questionable at best and laughable at most, which is arguably the reason it's struggling at the moment.

Those Vita games you mentioned is still better 3rd party support than Nintendo has seen for years ^^ What I meant was that Vita doesn't lack block buster franchises on it; so my wording wasn't the best perhaps. And compare those with the PORTS Wii U has gotten; ports that can be found on PS360, which has an installbase of 140m..



I'm on Twitter @DanneSandin!

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.

You skipped over one very important thing.
The PSVita doesn't have Nintendo First Party games.

Gamecube had also Nintendo first party but it sold not well

Somebody already pointed that out to me.

No, NintendoPie, you will sit here, and you will listen to us tell you that Gamecube had Nintendo First Party games but did not sell well over and over as atonement for your post.  Capiche?

No. No capiche. Wii U will do better because of Nintendo's First Party. (Because we all know no matter how hard Nintendo may try, those third parties will stay the hell away from Nintendo.)

What dumb logic. The Wii U got ports of the real games, the PSV watered down versions (not all of them, but certainly true for AC and CoD).

What really speaks against the Vita is that it had a holiday season priced at $/€199 (including a game) and still didn't move many units. The Wii U is a long way off before it reaches such an attractive price point.

Why people will buy a Wii U and this port when he can play it in ps3 and xbox360.

COD is a bad game because it was made by a bad studios it's not a question of effort and i don"t know why you say AC is a waterered down versions'it's just because  the graphic are bad compared to homeconsole version?



PS4 - over 100 millions let's say 120m
Xbox One - 70m
Wii U - 25m

Vita - 15m if it will not get Final Fantasy Kingdoms Heart and Monster Hunter 20m otherwise
3DS - 80m

I feel like you are forgetting that Gamecube had Nintendo's first party but did not sell well.
