"There’s a ton of PS4 games coming out around March. Exclusives like Infamous: Second Son, releasing on Mar. 21, and other highly anticipated titles like Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn, Thief, Basement Crawl and Planetside 2 will push those who are on the fence about buying a next-generation console. The Wii U, in comparison, has few titles coming out around that time. The only one which has any potential to bring gamers to the console is Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze."

omg, resorting to saying ff 14 and other cross gen are system sellers. also, donkey kong releases a good month BEFORE those ps4 saviors and there's a little known indie title called mario kart 8 releasing late march at the earliest.

he also seems to think wii u sales will be bellow 0 for the next months.

Ps4 isnt the Wii U. It doesn't need anything to save it. It is healthy and easily surpass the Wii U in short enough time. Just stop. Admit you were completely wrong withh Wii U able to reach 10m that you adjusted to 8mil that you missed by a huge amount anyway and you were wrong about X1 and Ps4 not going to be able to reach 2 mil

thank you for the useless thread derailment quote.

Once again, read what I wrote. I never said that the PS4 will outsell the Wii U in Spring (which btw wouldn't negate the PS4 being down in January since obviously the Wii U will be down as well).

That site shows where the PS4 is out of stock right now, which it is on Amazon as well btw. at least for a reasonable price, this clearly contradicts your comment that the PS4 is experiencing a sharp fall/crash right now, which you still haven't backed up as it seems that your only argument is that Wii U dropped like a rock in January so the PS4 has to experience the same fate. And sure the Wii U was sold out at launch, but it wasn't still sold out 6 weeks after launch.

Failure... PlayStation 4 is outselling Wii U because it launched recently and Sony saved up enough stocks to meet the demand as much as possible and that is why they delayed PlayStation 4 launch in Japan, you would be getting the same number if PlayStation 4 was also launched in Japan on the same date as the world wide launch...

Now Sony is going to starve other regions and focus on Japan and try battle Nintendo on their turf/fortress...

So did the Wii U and it was sold out before launch also and your assumption that Wii U never did that is fallacy.

If PlayStation 4 sales drastically drop and sales of some 3rd party games fail then don't be surprised if some 3rd party developers also abandon the ship... Don't say it is impossible, it is possible... Specially if games flop on it. More 3rd party support does not mean more people buying the console, exclusives should be in the first place. First party titles... If first party titles are not good then people will have less reasons to buy the system.

People that currently buy PlayStation 4 are the hardcore Sony fans like hardcore Nintendo fans bought Wii U at launch.

You guys realize pachter predicted that the WII and nintendo would look like the winners of last gen.. for the majority of the gen, and then they would fall off because of hardware spec/end of fad and lower priced competitors with better games and better visuals.. like the ps3 would rebound he said..

I am out of here... Too many ignorant people thinking about the present time rather look a bit farther than what is right now...

it will happen... in fact I personally wouldn;t doubt that sony is actually over 4 million right now, and not too far from 5 million already....

they will skip passed WII u when the console released in JAPAN in feb imo...

Its completely fair that he call you out on your terrible predictions like when you said that PS4/X1 won't sell because Wii U wasn't selling.

Pachter said these things when they were obvious, literally in your face.
