I didn't even think about it until now, but the PS4 has overtaken the Wii U's lifetime in Europe, "Rest of the World" and now North America!

Party time! Woot!!

Next stop, Japan!

I wonder if it will take Japan before April.

Since when was the PS4 overtaking the Wii U in Japan an "if"-question?

I thought it happened last week... How long should it be for it to overtake Japan? 2 weeks? 1st week!?

Bet with bluedawgs: I say Switch will outsell PS4 in 2018, he says PS4 will outsell Switch. He's now permabanned, but the bet will remain in my sig.

Not suprising. The WiiU is nearly the Sega Saturn 2.

PS4 will blast the poor thing to smithereens.

The Wii U is at nearly 1.2 million in Japan right now and will be over that by the time the PS4 launches, so as funny (or sad?) as that would be, it's definitely going to take awhile before it can surpass.

I know a lot of people are actually thinking it could go as high as selling out a 500k shipment first week, but personally I see more 280k-ish.
