The boost given isn't neccessarily going to have the same shape, its the longer term that actually matters. For what its worth, I think wiiU will settle above Vita before too long. Hm. Considering your comments on vita since it came out, I don't see how your analysis is more trustworthy than Turskish's. Well he predicted slow/bad sales for the Vita since it came out... and the Vita saw slow/bad/terrible sales since it came out... I'd say his analysis is pretty good thus far.

Someone didn't read the "Kowen vs Vita LTD" thread

I did. That still doesn't make him wrong.

I think it could do it in a single week. 222k isn't a lot in December, and the Vita was doing around 200k a week in the holidays. If it does 150k this year, and we consider the fact Nintendo consoles perform better in the holidays, it's not unreasonable to assume that the Wii U could sell 400k in the week of Super Mario 3D Worlds launch (if not higher), removing the Vita advantage (I doubt the Vita will get more than, say, 50k extra advantage on the Wii U from here, if it increases of course.).

It really doesn't matter. Most games launch at the end of the week anyways.

Vita isn't dead in Japan ! And if  you consider it dead then isnt the WiiU just as dead?!

Pikmin 3 did quite well. Over 100k had been nice (well, Famitsu has it at 100k+) but it's better than I had expected. Decent boost for Wii U.

kowenicki said: naruball said: kowenicki said: Turkish said: Thats not bias. we are talking about how you reacted to this news and how you reacted to almost identical Vita news. Its biased. "Its over Nintendo" versus "Vita is a potential goldmine"   Being biased is absolutely fine. We all are to an extent. Calling someone out for being biased, when your post history on every single vita related thread has been solely negative, is not (as far as I'm concerned). being negative about Vita sales is biased?  or is it realistic and common sense?

There's nothing realistic about being all the time negative about a single company no matter the week's sales. When it was doing terrible, you said it was terrible, when it improved you either didn't comment or decided to spin it as something which wouldn't last long. As Rol also pointed out, making an unrealistic prediction and then going all "told you, guys" is still biased. Feel free to continue being biased, but don't call out people about the exact same thing you do. The way Tuskish reacted about wiiu is exactly the same you've been reacting since vita came out. This is not about numbers, but reaction, as you said yourself.

I'm done here and don't wanna derail the thread, so do whatever you want, but don't expect us not to call you out, when you call Turkish out.

I'd say they're both on life support.

Pikmin is being made for 3 years...
i spected a little more.

Pikmin 3 FW sales are pretty good, but the game mostly sold to the current install base. It didn't move many systems.

Toukedon is selling pretty well for a Vita title.
