Just out of curiosity, what do u think Wii U lifetime sales will be by the end of the year?
When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.

Yes, handhelds are obviously stronger in Japan. But WiiU already showed potential in this direction with the people playing on train on the gamepad. Some japanese developers (namely Capcom) noticed that. So I don't think the WiiU can really beat handhelds, but with the other home-consoles launch later, the current line-up and the option for half-handheld it might do good on Japan. Although Japan also is not the big market anymore for home-consoles. |
You cannot play in the train with the Gamepad!

Incubi said: WiiU will have Japan all to itself this holiday and Europe always had a thing for Sonic for some reason, plus i'm sure families will prioritize Nintendo consoles this holiday. Knowing that, I expect Nintendo to ship 7mill worldwide by december, and it will completely sell out. Prediction January 1 2014: WiiU: 7 mill (I dont think its smart to underestimate Nintendo during fall holiday season) PS4: 2,5 mill (I doubt they'll be able to ship more than that) Xbone: 1 mill (I feel MS have had huge production issues with XBone) |
Playstation 3 has had japan to itself for a long time and they've shown they don't really care about home consoles. Its sales have rarely been above 20k for the past year or 2
Europe: yes
Japan: no
It seems like the Wii U's biggest competition in Japan this year will be... the 3DS. Somehow, I don't think Nintendo is complaining about that.
In Europe, Wii U is probably screwed. It'll have to compete with PS4, Xbone, PS3, and 360 -- all of which are getting FIFA, while Wii U is not -- plus the 3DS. Mario and Donkey Kong will help, but not enough.
"Playstation 3 has had japan to itself for a long time and they've shown they don't really care about home consoles. Its sales have rarely been above 20k for the past year or 2"
Playstation 3 never had japan all to itself.
It will be ok in Japan cause the PS4 isnt coming this year there. In EU who knows.
TheLastStarFighter said: While I think the intention was the opposite, this thread convinced me that Wii U will do very well in Japan this year. Europe is more of a challenge, but not because the games aren't excellent, but because the system isn't finding an audience there yet in general. |

So which consoles have the PS3 been competing with the last 2 years?
