PS4 because I wanna be different.

Hipster! Maybe if (No trolling intended, It's a joke) Sony goes bankrupt!


You must also be a Hipster ;P

Everyone is hipster, it only matters how hipster you are.

I am less hipster, which is better to non-hipsters, but worse to hipsters.  Hipstering in the console wars is so hipster...

But this is seriously off subject... We should not continue our hipster talk, fellow hipster!

Almost positive the order is PS4 > Xbox one > wiiU.

Ps4 > xbox one > wii U
Denying it with all the stats you want is just burying your head in lies.

You're saying statistics actually makes prediction's worse?

I think Wii U might just do it considering how really really REALLY bad Xbox One is doing in Europe. US alone just can't possibly make up for Europe and Japan, as I'm pretty sure that X1 will bomb in Nippon too. I mean, even harder than Wii U and PS4. =P


wii u isnt even doing a thing europe.

they dont even sell consoles after 2013.

xbox one still doing fine not good as ps4 for but fine

you guys are heck lol

1. Look at Week Ending May 24th for Europe only. Xbox One is doing just as bad in Europe.

2. They sold more than 1 unit since 2014 started.

3. No, it isn't. It sold 37k in a week, which is barely better than what Wii U was doing before MK8.

4. Well, even if XBO's ahead at the same time frame, Wii U is still ahead. Xbox One would have to catch Wii U before Wii U has any chances of catching Xbox One.

It was the the 180k to 84k decline that I was reffering to. Because most thought that the Wii U would easily be number one either the week MK8 released even with only 2 days OR that it would FOR SURE be number 1 the following week with a full 7 days of sales. Yet it did worse with more days. So MK8 while it definitely boosted sales they dropped off kind of quickly. But yeah hopefully they can only go up.

It was adjusted down to 140k, the decline was about 60k.


Well shoot that is not what I expected so that means the MK8 boost was even lower than I thought...well that sucks

Yeah. Still a great boost, though. Hopefully the baseline will grow!

I understand, but its the pre-launch to post-launch comparisons we need to be going by. If the numbers regress below the pre-launch 30k, then I'd agree that the system is in a decline. Sure, it's easy to go by how little they fell off from launch week onward, but its not a good litmus test. There's always a steady dropoff. Didn't the PS4 drop by something around 90k units difference from the launch of Watch Dogs to the week after? I doubt it spells doom or decline for the PS4. =)


Yeah but the PS4 is also doing a lot better and is much healthier than the Wii u as well so of course it doesn't spell doom lol. I am not even saying the  Wii U is doomed I am just stating that I can't see how they can possibly turn the situation around to take 2nd place this gen. Not doomed just can't see it taking 2nd place. We can't blame the sales on games(exclusives anyway), not competition(during launch cause it had none) or even price because it is the cheapest. So that's my view anyway on why I can't see them taking number 2 for the gen. could it happen? Sure it could but how is the question.
