Forums - Sales - Excluding Japan, The PS4 has already passed the WiiU

How about new FF, KH, MGS, Soccer, baseball, and a lot of other games that WiiU can't give to the customers in japan?

its insane that PS4 is only 1mil behind Wii U...madness



Not sure why people think the PS4 won't be able to beat the Wii U in Japan. Nintendo basically relying on its 1st party, while Sony has 3rd party support, too. What system do you think Japan will be playing Final Fantasy, Kingdom Hearts, Yakuza, MLB, FIFA, and COD on? PS4. And PS4 has had 3 preorder allotments since it was announced and all 3 sold out within 24 hrs of being available. I think launch is going to be pretty big. Probably ~400k-500k.



If we only count 13 countries where X1 launched, did X1 already surpass Wii U by the end of 2013?

Probably not past Wii U, but closer.  Maybe add +10% to XB1 sales.

Good, maybe the Sony fans can stop talking about this now?

No, that'll never happen. Who am I kidding.


Werent you incredibly smug to 'Sony Fans' back in the days of Wii domination in these forums?

Karma is a bitch, isnt she?

Then we'll just go back to discussing when the PS3 will pass the Wii (see sig).


That's a good point. Perhaps I should consider leaving this site sooner rather than later.. I'm about at wits end with this Sony fan superiority complex and sales boasting.

We went through the same thing with the 3DS and Vita. Every fan group does it.

PS4 wont beat WiiU in Japan so easily, I wouldn't be surprised if it didn't manage to beat it in Japan at all.


It will take longer, but I think the PS4 will pass the WiiU in Japan.  But Japan is definitely the WiiU's strongest market.



Wii U's sold the most in US though.

By like 40k currently from the charts. It definitely has already passed it.



Congratulations to Sony, so far it has been an impressive launch. Curious to see the next few months.
