Gamecube and N64 both had Mario, Kart, and Zelda, yet they all sold pretty poorly compare to their competitor; with the Wii Fad advantage gone, I do not see WiiU succeeding

The Wii U will likely sell around 7 million units this year. You believe the PSV will sell 14 million, in other words have a YoY sales increase of 400% and sell the same as the 3DS did last year? I don't see it. |
Maybe it's just me, but going 30k a week isn't really a pace to reach 7 million, unless this is going to be a veeeery long year. Like 240 weeks long ;) So far there is not a single game announced (by announced I mean with a release date or just so that it's 100% certain to come in 2013) that can cause a sudden improvement in the sales. On the other hand Vita does have a few heavy hitters coming and keeps getting more and more announcements of Japanese games, which can keep on turning things around in its favour in Japan.
Wii U is a GCN 2 - I called it months before the release!
My Vita to-buy list: The Walking Dead, Persona 4 Golden, Need for Speed: Most Wanted, TearAway, Ys: Memories of Celceta, Muramasa: The Demon Blade, History: Legends of War, FIFA 13, Final Fantasy HD X, X-2, Worms Revolution Extreme, The Amazing Spiderman, Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate - too many no-gaemz :/
My consoles: PS2 Slim, PS3 Slim 320 GB, PSV 32 GB, Wii, DSi.

the difference between Vita and WiiU

This is a sweet form of cherrypicking :) You are aware that if you align the launch of both consoles, Vita was doing 50% better than Wii U is doing at this point? But I guess that such a fair comparison wouldn't support your argument... Tells much about it :P
This is going to be a great competition between these two platforms, but Vita has the upper hand so far, because Vita games actually ARE COMING, while Wii U games MAY COME OR NOT in 2013.

Vita for sure, I can't see the WiiU picking up for a while.
Yeah its got some good games coming out but I think the Ps4 launch will hold it back from thumping the vita.

I can assure you that Pikmin 3 will likely be bigger and sell more than any Vita "heavy hitter" to say no Vita game has hit a million yet.
If you don't count that, then Wind Waker HD is really going to do good for the system and will eclipse the big guns for Vita easily. And if either 3D Mario or Mario Kart launch, as well as whatever we don't yet know about...well I don't see how these aren't heavy hitters yet Tearaway, a game which will likely sell 500k tops, is.
