Pocky Lover Boy! 

The Wii U is 1.3m behind the Vita and has outsold it by 750k this year, with a probable decline next year. Looking at their sales curve, it's not guaranteed Wii U will ever outsell Vita (yellow is Wii U):

It might outsell it, but it's gonna take a looooooong time.

Wii U will definitely pass Vita, but if you count only Japan then that's possible. Since you were talking about COMG, which does have a lot of Vita games present. However, worldwide it's probably tough for Vita to stay ahead.



Nah, Vita is selling too low in Americas and Europe for Japan to make up the deficit.

WiiU will outsell Vita by a good margin this December.



 

ok...

I would like to add facts to this.

1. Zelda is a HUGE title. You stated it was not. Which, in terms of sales, Zelda is more popular than Assassin's Creed. (Highest selling game is just under 5m for Assassin's Creed I think, while Zelda's is 7.60m I think)



Nope. Assassin's Creed III sold Over 13m not including digital and PC.   In terms of selling power Zelda would rival games like mainline Fable games, uncharted, and other exclusive titles similar to those.  But Assassin's Creed, whether you like it or not is one of the most popular gaming figures today, more so than Halo, Zelda, and Uncharted.

As for the OP, sometimes i feel like Spurge just makes threads for comments.  Personally I think Vita is a better console but the WiiU will outsell it unless the Vita picks up majorly
