I cant see the Wii having sold more than Wii U by the years end. Wii U is now comfortably outselling its predecessor.


This thread is about the US.

This past week, the Wii U sold 21k to the Wii's 19k

The Comeback begins now!

Embarassing for Nintendo. Not to Sony.

You are comparing handhelds to consoles. Thus the comparison to Vita is invalid. But comparison to Wii U is valid, so shame on Nintendo and Wii U.


LOL figures you say something like this. I would expect handhelds to sell more than home consoles, you trying to push vita away just shows your true colors. Vita cant barely do even half which is by far more embarrassing so yeahhh...

If you want to post pls dont be so biased

Vita is not a handheld. It is a hybrid console and handheld thus you can't compare it with anything. It is unique, a never seen before in history of gaming.


...

Vita is a fucking handheld.

VitaTV is a console. Pretty sure you can't play it on the go.

Now what? Vita is both.

Then judge it twice? LOL!!

Vita doesn't count because it's different? Wii is much more different compared to it's predecessors than Vita is to PSP.

You know what is embarrassing for Sony.   Sony sold 296,146 Vitas in the USA from Jan 1, 2013-Oct 26, 2013.  In the same time frame, Nintendo sold 502,528 DS systems (a system that is as dead or more than the Wii) in the USA.  Spin that... Does that mean shame on Sony?!?


PS Vita is a hybrid, not a handheld. Can't compare it to DS or 3DS, so no. Not embarassing.

I own a Vita, there's nothing "hybrid" about it...it's a handheld.  Keep spinning.



Stop hating and start playing.

I'm waiting for...You cant compare anything to the Vita because it's a slightly different shade of Black :)))

No, haven´t you heard ? The Vita is neither a handheld nor a console, scientists were unable to find out what species it belongs to.

Hilarious!

This says a lot more about the lack of momentum in the Vita and Wii U than it does about any remaining momentum in the Wii.

As of May 23, 2013 the Wii has a list of 1222 games. For only 99$ there still plenty of reason to pick up a Wii. It's still a great starter system for young children that just starting to play video games.

Beside there was some great title like Rhythm Heaven Fever, Last Story & Xenoblade Chronicles that release in 2012 and were missed by many gamers.

You know you're wrong when 100% of people on both sides disagree with you.  

If you want to say the PS Vita is a hybrid, then by the argument you're making the PS Vita SHOULD be selling more since it is SUPPOSED to have its hand in both markets.  That means it's twice as embarrassing.

Amazing, I didn't know that DS is still moving such numbers!
