I don't know. I just wanna say, nice avatar.

Its going to struggle against the 3DS and PS4 this year , wonder if Nintendo have a plan.



Don’t follow the hype, follow the games

Here a little quote I want for those to keep memorize in your head for this coming next gen.                            

 By: Suke

Ill say an optimistic 5 Million units.



                            

How original. A NintenDoom thread. By toastboy.

There is literally no chance in hell (que McMahon theme music) that Nintendo sells LESS than 4 million units, more likely 5-6 million at least, in 2014. Why? Because MK8 and the superior Smash Bros. game all but guarantee that. Games like X and Bayonetta 2 certainly help. And I still think the new Zelda has a chance to release by Dec. 2014.

Either way, there are also other games Nintendo will obviously announce that will release in 2014 that we don't yet know about, and Wii U is set up to have a pretty strong year, REGARDLESS of all the variables you tried to bring up. Cheers.

Last year the Wii U sold approx. 3 million for the year. Will it sell below 3 million this year? Here's the facts:

1.) The console is tracking below it's 2013 sales despite price cut and more games out

2.) Playstation 4 will eat away at Wii U sales in Japan

3.) Increased competition

4.) Gamepad still not catching on

5.) PS4 and soon Xbox One the dominate forces in America

6.) 3DS sales peaked and so it will recieve even less cross platform boost

7.) CLOUD

8.) Little to no 3rd party support

What do you think? Any Wii U predictions for the year? I myself think the Wii U will squeeze out 3.5 - 4 million units for the year due to major releases releasing.

 

Wii U = 


It would do well to hit the smae figure as it did this years, thus 2 years and not even 10 m. That overall is poor as you rightly point out, it has a lot to face against now.

Your analysis that the Wii U equals Magikarp is completely ludicrous. Don't bring Magikarp down to that level.



My predictions by Dec 2014

Without price cut = 4-5 millions

With price cut  = 6-7 millions



This thread is now about Pop Tarts.

So what is your guys favorite flavor? I personally have a strange appeal for the non-frosted cherry. For the more sugary variety, I really enjoy the smores as well as the brown sugar.



Prediction...Wii U will at least sell 5 million this year, and there will be at least 6 million toastboy Wii U doom threads telling us otherwise.



"Du du". Honestly, you are too young to be on this forum.
