So much talk about the one needing help, it will do fine with its big games like halo and gears come out as well as a pricecut. Also percentage one the xbox brand generally gets a bigger boost in the holidays then the playstation brand due to NA galore.


But PS4 is outselling it in NA so PS4 should have a bigger holiday boost...

PS4 with 61% marketshare this week...without Japan

japan won't be very relevant in that percentage for more than 2 weeks.

Haha, want to bet? PS4 should sell more in its third week in Japan than WiiU WW that week, barring complete sellouts and lack of stock.

You will regret it. it may even be hard for ps4's japan 3rd week to compete with wii u's japanese sales for the same week.

Alright. Conditions?

sounds straight forward. I win if ps4 week 3 in japan < Wii U WW numbers for the same week.

you win if I win if ps4 week 3 in japan > Wii U WW numbers for the same week.


I agree with zero, the ps4 won't lght Japan on fire. The ps3 sold like 1.5 million a year there? Wow that's massive.....


So whatever happened last gen automatically locks in the trends of the new gen?    Great logic you have there..


I'm sorry if my "opinion" doesn't match up to yours! But if you look at the last gen, the wii sold pretty well and didn't set Japan on fire either. PS3 sold pretty slow too. I'm not saying the ps4 won't sell pretty well, but I think that Japan has shown they aren't as "into" consoles as other countries are. Now you acting like just because it's the ps4, it will suddenly change that. Now THATS even greater logic you have there..

edit: even Sony sees Japan as the #3 market, why else would they wait until February to release it in their homeland? Consoles just aren't that huge there anymore. It's just a reality.

When did I say that?  Just after a ban and already making false accusations.  Your going to be a real treat here.  :)

PS4 is on a freaking roll. After the Japan launch we should see 250K or more every week. Looks like they will have well over 500k consoles for launch in Japan.

Will be interesting to see how things go once Live TV, VOD, PPV, and PSNow hit the US in the summer. Add on E3, Gamescom, and TGS which should be packed with game announcements, and PlayStation looks like it has a massive amount of content to push this gap even further.


I really doubt PS4 will sell more than 20K weekly in Japan. 

Even if the PS4 doesn't sell that much in Japan, sales will still rise more because right now they're saving stock for Japan launch, after it they will have more to sell WW.

3DS is on top! But I guess no one really cares right? Fuck handheld consoles.

Pshh, they don't count you know! 'Cos they don't have real games. Or graphics. Well if Vita was outselling 3DS then yes, obviously it would count, but it's not so we're ignoring the handhelds! You should too! PS4 has RAMZ, arrg!

A $100 handheld outselling a $400 console? WOAH. Stop the presses. 



Sigs are dumb. And so are you!

I don't think it's the price. It's just that people hate big screens. Sony should release a PS4 with an attached 5" screen. They'll sell billions.
