I thought that as a community we had it clear that NPD as a source is the most reliable one for the US, even then, I see a lot of new users trying to discredit them


There are some old members contesting it aswell in favor of wiiu and x1. I will discredit it in the name of psvita.

Makes you wonder where the baseline will be for Wii U sales after the Donkey Kong bump wares off.

Its gonna be a long, long drought for Wii U games between DK and MK. Nintendo are in trouble. Gonna be a bloodbath in Europe especially.

It's not like the others are fine either. people conveniently forget the others only have thief untill the end of march, where they will get titanfall/ infamous. then there's a drought untill watch dogs releases, wich could even be in june. and after that, the next big release is in september, destiny.

Huh?

January - Tomb Raider DE

February - Thief, Rayman Legends, Garden Warfare

March - Infamous Second Son/Titanfall, MGSV Ground Zeroes, Dynasty Warriors 8 

April - Final Fantasy XIV, Kinect Sports Rivals

May - MLB 15

June - The Elder Scrolls Online

What drought?

Added a couple!

Yeah and that's not even counting Watch Dogs and Driveclub which don't have release dates yet. I'm really not seeing any game droughts for either system. 

I'd say April/May are weak, probably January too, but that's kinda to be expected. I think PS4/X1 will rev up after June though and never look back, whereas with Nintendo they're always going to have droughts.

I'm thinking Watch Dogs will release in May, then we'll get some last gen ports like GTAV or The Last of Us in order to fill out the summer. 



Sigs are dumb. And so are you!

How can XBO be down YOY if it wasn't even out last January?
