Vita is not as dead as everyone is thinking. Europe is ok and Japan is good. Just North America is dead. :(


No it's not ok in Europe and Japan just better then usa numbers



PS4 - over 100 millions let's say 120m
Xbox One - 70m
Wii U - 25m

Vita - 15m if it will not get Final Fantasy Kingdoms Heart and Monster Hunter 20m otherwise
3DS - 80m

You forgot that Mario Kart 8 released last year too, and that one is likely to remain the biggest title to ever release on the Wii U. Do you honestly believe Yoshi and Kirby compare to MK8 in terms of sales and influence?


MK8 came out after E3

When I said YoY I meant from January to E3, since I was talking about when it will hit 10m

25k in Europe is not that bad.

Nope. MK8 came out May 30. E3 is in June.

Wanna know about something that we can probably all agree is actually overtracked this week? Ninja Gaiden 3 on Wii U in the US!

Seriously just look at this, what the hell is supposed to be the reason for that?

Have you ever heard the word ''firesale''?

Lol, yeah sure. A 2 year old game sells more in 1 week than it sold in its first full year because of a "firesale".

Oh my mistake, for some reason I thought E3 was in May

But I still it can hit 10m before E3

Say what you like, 92k in one of the biggest weeks of the year is absolutely appalling

Far from it. WiiU sold less than 1m from the equivalent week last year to the beginning of June.

It needs 1.2m this year (pending adjustments). In other words, it will have to be up 20%, which I don't see happening.


I think it can rise 20% YoY

Only game that released from January to E3 was DK:TF

Yoshi, Kirby, Mario Maker, and Mario Party 10 are all confirmed for 1st half 2015

there was also mario kart last 8 year. and splatoon is also releasing first half 2015, so is xenoblade x(at least in japan).

So Sony announces 18.5M PS4s shipped after the holiday season, and we now have PS4 at 18.1M as of December 27. That means PS4 is still over-tracked here, despite adjustments.


Sigh...we've only discussed this a million times. I know other people have already called you out for this post, but I just don't understand why you would post this after it's been clarified by everyone in many places around the internet that it's sold through.


Probably because I never read that. I don't read every thread on this site. I remembered a while back people were talking about how most times companies only report shipped numbers. I assumed this was the same case. Sorry. Chill daddy. 


I know. But it's been discussed in a lot of places. All I'm saying is it would be weird to post something without knowing the facts (in any scenario). And I'm not your dad.



I bet the Wii U would sell more than 15M LTD by the end of 2015. He bet it would sell less. I lost.
