Yes. Vita has numerous games coming that will help its sales to stay steady. WiiU has almost nothing and will collapse once Xmas shoppers are back home.

nothing from Wii U: Kirby, Splatoon, Xenoblade, MP10, Yoshi, Star Fox, Zelda and more


Not trying to put down the vita but ryuzaki comment just makes wiiu look better and/or vita look worse.

For a system that gets no games (wiiu) and vita which does indeed get many games especially from third party+indies and in japan gets 3-4x more games than the 3ds itself, you think wiiu would get killed by vita, yet its less than 2mil sales WW behind with almost a year less on the market.

Basically as Ryu says....

WiiU= No games, only holiday shoppers, nobody wants it.

Vita= Tons of games, great support.

Yet Sales by years end are going to be WiiU= 8.5mil-9mil  and Vita 9.4mil-10mil (extra year on the market).

 

IRONIC :P

No, there's no "more". It's basically all that WiiU has in 2015, and it's not as universal as MK or Smash, so WiiU is likely to struggle YoY. That's around 2 weeks of new Vita releases in Japan, 1 quarter in the West.

But let's call a truce for now. I wish a very happy Christmas to you guys =)

WiiU 2015 line up > 2014 line up. Just because the 2 biggest games came out in 1 year doesn't mean much because it had no price cut and only 2 semi big games to release (well 3 if HW counts).

Beside your point is flawed. Vita in japan is down YoY yet the support for 2014>>>2013. 

 

Edit: No, there's no "more"...... Are you serious? Mario Maker. That already disproves wat you said, now thee are games such as FE x SMT, Project Guard/Robot (watever this is), Rodea, etc. 

Also WTH, do you think Nintendo announced every game thats coming to WiiU in 2015, before 2015 even hits? How many 3ds/wiiu games didn't we know coming into 2014? Over 5, maybe over 10.



I feel like it has gotten to a point where I think you're posting for the sake of posting, no matter how dumb the idea is.

Maybe sony and nintendo should team and release a wiiu with a vita which is used as the controller lol



wii u will pass vita quite soon.



A simple no, I dont agree with your prediction.



Im not so sure about that. I think the WiiU will outsell vita by next year, it has a great lineup in 2015 and i presume a surge when any of their exclusives are released. I could be wrong since vita seems to be picking up quite a bit of recent
