Third place is inevitable. All that remains to be seen is how much of a fight the Wii U puts up on its way there.


What do the DS, Wii and 3DS have in common?  Answer: People saying it won't win.

What do the PS3, PSP Go and Vita have in common?  Answer:

DS, Wii, and 3DS were all in the lead right out the gate. They sold much faster at launch than their competitors.

This is a simple thing to determine. Nintendo will continue to support the Wii U for a few more years, until 2017-2018 at the absolute latest. Sony and Microsoft will still be supporting their consoles past 2020. They will outlast the Wii U no matter what it does in its lifetime.

i dont see microsoft and sony going strong with these consoles past 2020. honestly, i wouldnt be suprised at all to see a new console from at leat one of them in 2018. im sure they will be on the market in 2020, but support will be dying fast. 2020 for the ps4/x1 would probably be the state the 360 is in at this point.

The Wii U has eDRAM and the PS4 has GDDR5.

GDDR5 = 176GB a second

eDRAM = 1TB or 1000GB a second

The Wii U just might outshine the other consoles. I know you don't know what I'm talking, but you can look it up.

Are you suggesting that Nintendo will support the Wii U longer than Sony and Microsoft will support their respective platforms?

I mean, it only sounds like you're suggesting that the Wii U is six times more powerful than the PS4, but I don't see how that is related to my claim that Nintendo will drop support for the system in 3-4 years.


You must be a physic.  Clearly you know more then me.

It's already confirmed, not sure how anyone can argue otherwise.

Fair enough, look up "John Carmack" Gamelab video.  You don't need to believe me, just believe him.

Lol, whatever.  It's up to you to prove your argument not others to verify your facts.
