It's mostly Japan's fault that Wii U numbers are so low

Uhm PS4 is ahead of PS2 in the US, unless the numbers in my head are outdated. So the only thing that has happened is that MS has become a lot more competent compared to their first generation.

Don't even bother. Next thing you know, it's going to be "It doesn't have nearly as many [genre games] as ps2", "it isn't as profitable", etc etc. Let them have their little victories.

Instead of slighting Sony he should be praising MS and being humbled

Heres a thought. Nintendo shifted nearly 750 thousand consoles this week based on vgc. Over 2 million wii games and over 2 million wii u games bet most off which where 1st party. Pokemon,smash and even mk8 dominating charts compared to sony and xbox. Yep sales could be much better for wii u but damn nintendo must be laughing all way to bank.

plus amiib

must have sold 2 million amiibo by now so theres like over 10 million in profit there XD

Things don´t look good for Vita...... at that pace it will be surpassed even by the WiiU

Post black friday numbers are decent but I think that US Xbox one and PS4 numbers are low. On a side note, the gaming crash is still going full steam ahead...

That last part was sarcasm right? Surely you wouldn't say something so blasphemous.

The adjustments for Black Friday zaps away any excitement that the numbers are right for this week. Overall, it is good to still see the Wii U lagging far behind the bone and the PS4.

I doubt they are laughing all the way to the bank...the 3DS numbers worry me as well Japan loves it though! And ummmm aren't most of NIN games 1st party to begin with? And why didn't you mention the game sales of XB or PS games? PS4 shifted what well over 2 million games as well(and that is only counting the top 20 games) more than likely closer to 3 or over. And how are Pokemon, Smash and Mk8 dominating the charts compared to Sony and Xbox? There are FAR more SOny and XBOX games in the top 20 than NIN games? Your post doesn't make sense to me.

But it is a good thought I guess.....

Ummm i only saw driveclub and lbp3 for sony and didnt notice much for microsoft soooo.....yeah.Software sales on ps4 is amazing for one week but  i didnt mention them cos not sure how many are 1st party. Not sure why half a million sales off 3ds would worry you though? wiiu needs to be better though.



Ninsect on 19 December 2014

Sales for LBp3 looking good. The PS4 version is keeping up with LBP1 and when PS3 and 4 are combined they match LBP2.
