Should be good. I'll be very happy if Xbox One > Wii U.

Xbox One is probably going to win..............by 1 or 2 units!


A win is a win

If Xbox does win it will probably be like the GC and the Xbox

24m and 22m

But in the end PS dominates

Increasing 5 fold and becoming comparable to WiiU and XBO (3DS too if we're pushing it) isn't exactly a "tad". It's still by no means great, I never said it was, but it's unbelievably better than the month before.

What's with the pessimism and bitterness? Would you rather the Vita be doing worse?

No no, the "tad" comment was about raising your standards. Like, say, selling at least 15k per week in the largest market during the fourth year of release. But if that's enough to be "not dead" for you, then... meh.

Vita. Was it really sub 4k last month? What pushed it up?

WiiU is disappointing. Mario Kart pushed it less than whatever pushed Vita


Borderlands 2


A shitty inferior late port of a home console game



PS4 - over 100 millions let's say 120m
Xbox One - 70m
Wii U - 25m

Vita - 15m if it will not get Final Fantasy Kingdoms Heart and Monster Hunter 20m otherwise
3DS - 80m

Vita is not in its fourth year in the US, is it? I thought it came out in 2012

I say let people be happy. Both WiiU and Vita increased to almost decent numbers. It goes to show that neither of them is truly dead (or that both of them have become zombies).

I stand corrected: I was thinking of its Japanese release (although that was barely 2011). So it's in its third year now, i.e. its prime.

As for letting folks be happy, I suppose. Neither system is doing at all well, though. The Wii U seems to be pinnings its hopes on 2015 releases, while the Vita is banking on indie games. I don't expect either to amount to anything. And the specious reasoning used to support either system right now demonstrates the truism that there are lies, damn lies, and statistics. But I'll stop being a Debbie Downer.

For now.

Hmm.. What specious reasoning?

Yoshi's New Island was quite a bit under tracked here on the charts.

No, definitely not BL2. It was new SKU and a much better one. Also very low stock for the past 2months!

Minecraft [PS3] is over tracked. 360 version is ahead on the top10 chart.



Won bet with t3mporary_126 - I correctly predicted that the Wii U's LTD at the end of 2014 would be closer to 9 million than 10 million. http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=6673287

Yeah. I get it.
