At the low sales level both have, everything can change a lot in this snails race. Hard to say, but the gap seems to big.

The Wii U was never going to catch up this year.

And why exactly is that? "Never" really?

Maybe there should be some 3DS connectivity? Even though the Wii U has a gamepad....

Playing 3DS games on the big screen would be a start.


CrossBuy for legacy games (NES, SNES, GBA, DS) would be great. Buy them once in the eShop, play them on WiiU and on the 3DS.

Beyond a shadow of a doubt. I'll see your Vita's Killzone 2.9m and Borderlands 2 1.5m and raise it to the Wii U's Wind Waker HD's 4m, Donkey Kong's 5m, Wii Party's 7m, Mario & Sonic's 8m, Super Mario 3D Land's 8m+, Wii Fit's 20m. The Vita's gonna fold. Price cut or not. Especially when the Wii U is outselling it in Japan where the price cut already happened.

Is there even any point comparing the wii U and the Vita?

The vita isnt doing great but I think the wii U is doing worse.
I cant see MH4 selling as many Wii U's as opposed to 3DS.

What?

As for the rest of it, did you even read my other post to you in the other thread?


It already had a price cut, and nope.

the price cut just happened, and vita already outsells wiiu every month. its not impossible but i dont think it is likely.
we dont even have numebrs after the price cut yet. who knows. iwata has his head up his ass too far for a price cut on the wiiu so no i dont think it will happen based on that alone.
