There are less 'PS Vita is doomed' threads here than 'Wii U is doomed' threads.

The Dreamcast would have kept going longer than it did if SEGA didn't run out of money.

There isn't a fixed userbase the systems need to have to be "safe". They just need to gather userbases purchasing enough software to make game releases viable.

No.

Vita had them about 12 months ago. Wii U is just catching up now. :)

Emphasis on "just".

Why are people comparing Vita to Wii U?

Vita already failed, when you look at the 3DS sells, so you can say Vita is "Doomed", not Sony but Vita.

On the other hand, Wii U is currently leading PS4 and XBoner, no way is X1 going to pass Wii U sells. Once Mario kart and Super Smash Bros is released...muahhahahahhahahahahah

Doubt... Wii sold 100M and is still doomed to a lot of users... it doesn't depend on the sales, but on the agenda.

I will not stop saying they are doomed.

Because I never started. I've always thought that the negativity within the gaming community is one of the biggest problems within the community. And when it comes to the Wii U, predicting its "doom" is just absurd, given that Nintendo has a massive pile of cash it sits on, plus a thriving handheld business, so it can absorb a few years of lacklustre sales, sell a comfortable 15-20 million in the worst case, and enter the next generation stronger. Nintendo has no motivation to kill the Wii U.

And the only real risk Vita comes with is Sony collapsing entirely... which is unlikely at worst. So long as Sony continues through the rest of the generation, Vita will continue with it.

People told me PS3 is a failure because it lost marketshare compared to the PS2. So if the Wii U sells 20 million that's like 20 % of its predecessor and has to be the biggest flop in history... Based on that logic at least.

I've been saving this one.
