PS4 needs to four million sales in two months to surpass the Wii U this year while the Wii U continues to sell like it has been. The Wii U will probably keep selling as badly as it has been, but I'm going to say the PS4 won't sell more than three million by the end of the year.


U dont think sales will pick up do to price cut, games and holidays? Thats unlikey

Just a generalization.  What does increase in sales, I don't think it's going to make much of a difference.  Like Pikmin 3.  Sales increased 10,000 for two weeks.  Wii U already had one version selling at $300, so a $50 price drop down to $300 of the deluxe version with a digital version of an HD rerelease isn't going to move too many systems.  

The PS3 and 360 are still out there, and they're still $200, so who's really going to buy the Wii U other than Nintendo fans?  If they already own a PS360, they would probably hold out for the PS4/Xbox One.  PS4 is only $100 more for actual next gen. 

Well u said PS4 needs to sell 4 million this year in order to outsell total Wii U numbers. Wii U is at 3.5million so u think it will do 500k maximum in the final 4 months of the year. It sold 500k in the last 4 months with Pikmin 3 as the only big exclusive. The next 4 months have a $50 price cut, new bundle, and games like 3D Mario, DKC, Sonic, Wind Waker HD, Wii Party, Wii Fit, M&S Olympics which are all bigger series than Pikmin plus the added benefit of the holidays coming up which always boosts hardware. So based off that 500k from now til the end of the year is a rediculous prediction. 

Vita was able to sell I think 1.8 million in the last 4 months of 2012 and Wii U has alot more going for it this holiday than Vita did last year so id say Wii U will be over 6 million by the end of the year.



When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.

So the PS4 is confirmed not to be coming to Japan this year. That should affect its chances negatively in comparisons like this. I think at least a few people in this thread were speculating under the assumption that the PS4 would see a Japanese launch in 2013.

Anybody want to change their vote now? Or is Japan an irrelevant market in the home console race?



Here is my prediction:
Wii U will outsell PS4 in december!

OT: there is absolutely no chance that PS4 total 2013 will outsell WiiU total 2013!
