I'm Italian.
Wii U how much sold?

Sounds probable but how is it Ubisoft's place to make these predictions?



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

Wii U is not next gen. Now be grateful for Nintendo's biggest partner for Wii U third party software.

On topic: Less than a 4:1 advantage for the PS4 by the end of the year is a very generous estimate for Microsoft.

Wii U is not nex gen, really.

Even PS4.

Is CURRENT gen...

8 gen is now, not between much year, the nex gen is a 9 gen.

That sounds really quite low compared to other European countries


Indeed. This damn crisis is keeping every Italian market low. Real estate and cars are doing even worse.

Title seems wrong.

We can't say even say that because we don't know what XB1 sales in Italy are currently, all we know is that PS4 is 210k now, and that Ubisoft predict that the PS4 will have 550k vs 150k by the end of the year. Given the respective game line-ups coming up for both consoles, I can't see a reason why Ubisoft would expect the PS4/XB1 ratio to grow over the remainder of the year, so it is likely the current ratio is around 4:1
