from what you told, it didn't outsell wii u. and that certainly doesn't relate to the quality of the software.

Of course my original 10M prediction won't happen, i even told you that quite a while ago. when i made that prediction I also said 9M was a worse case scenario. and recently, on the 10 week countdown, my prediction would put wii u at around 9.3M by the end of the year.

the big point is, are you ready to take responsability for your words when your super pessimistic 7M prediction is less accurate than mine?

It's a 'few thousand off' MS will announce they've overtaken in a matter of weeks. Good as.

7m? Haha, that's not even my prediction, the ceiling is 6m. WiiU is just not selling 700k+ in US in Nov and then Dec, no way no how. Fact you think it's going to start selling 800k a week is laughable.

So, you have oficially lowered your prediction to 6M?

you said 7M here: http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=5763068

6 - 6.5m yeah.

October showed consumers aren't interested in the WiiU after the price cut, zelda and bundles, as sales dropped to 12.5k weekly from 19.5k in September. I don't see Mario 3D World pushing WiiU above and beyond expectations. That and US will be more than 50% of sales this holiday for WiiU, heck even 60%, Japan clearly isn't interested and Europe is by far the weakest of the 3 for WiiU, everybody knows that.

Don't have a good argument? Just act arrogant, typical for you.

Read again what I wrote and then try too refute it. Just a little hint the Wii U is 25% cheaper than the PS4 while probably being around 4 times weaker, do you see what's wrong with that? Also sure, the Wii U has more games at the moment, but once again how long until this changes, maybe a year? If you seriously believe that the Wii U will for the rest of its life have more games than the PS4 (better is subjective anyway) then you are just delusional, like I said the Wii U is good for Nintendo games but if you don't like those then you have close to no reason at all to buy one.

bolded: nope.

and wich part of "it's cheaper, has more and better games" isn't a good argument?

Wow, "nope", great argument, got any sources to back that up? Cause all I can find on the net basically supports my point (am on my phone so posting a link is a pain, maybe someone else will), but don't worry, if you can't find a source I will just file this under "bullshit Zero pulls out of his ass to make the Wii U look better".

Also, read what I said and don't come back until you have a good argument, all you've said in your last post has already been adressed by me in my last post.


It's actually 9x more powerful then wiiu. Trine 2 already shows a 5 x by running 60fps 1080p with 3d support.

He obviously genuinely believes there are more unsold WiiU's out there than sold.

Have you ever heard such a thing? Retailers ordering more stock over the next 6 weeks than they've EVER sold since its launch.

you sure he didnt mean 9.3 by the end of 2014?

by the end of december there should be at least 5 to 6 million wii u sold. i dindt really expect to much sales in japan for a mario game since their culture prefer other types of games, we have to wait for the sales on eua and europe

it's actually 9x more powerful, trine 2 already runs double the amount of pixels 2 times faster with 3d support and better graphics that game alone shows 5-6 x jump
