According to the NPD that is. 

Wii U LTD- 2,155,000

PS4 LTD- 2,272,000

So...

and?

[3Dude]

What? It really took this long? By this time the original wii closed a 10 million difference gap with the 360.

Wow, ps4 must not be doing that great. Bomba.

[Nollog]

lol, Sony failure continues.

So...

and?

I want to feed on your despair, I guess?

 

Nah, I just thought it would be relevant.

[Chaos]

I don't see the relevancy of this thread. Do people care about the PS4 that much? No, I don't believe they do.

Hey look, the "I'm sarcastic and emo, and secretly frustrated with the Wii U's success(or lack thereof)" group has shown up! Woe is us!

 

wtg Sony, amazing how focusing on games sells hardware. How did they ever figure that out?

What games? My friend has all three and playing his Wii U more since it has a rainbow ton of games and he loves the PS4 but it's not being touched. Nothing is even out yet. XBO. I think he wants to toss that thing in a fire. he Wiiin hates HATES HATES XBO. Console and MS are a flat mess. Also Not frustrated with sales. Not my problem that's Nintendo's problem. I play games I buy all the systems anyway always have always will but outside of bragging rights consumers should not care so damn much on sales. Does not diminish the enjoyment of the games. Sony can sell ketchup Popsicle to an Eskimo with white gloves but I rather have something to play than have the best selling. I like my Vita more than 3DS and liked the PSP over my DS. Still enjoy both. I would say I only worry about sales if something is doing dismal and I mean dismal sales. Wii U is not. It's slowly picking up and we all know MK8 will push it more and other games this year. Vita my precious on the other hand is dead weight.Sony has not given it much in games (tho some third parties have and Ys alone makes Vita for me) and they have zero marketing for it. So unless my console is about to be discontinued sales are not that important to me the consumer.  It's nice when they do sell but does not detract from the fun of the games and PS4 right now has quite honestly nothing. On a personal note I see nothing for me all this year . Still will get one for the promise of 3rd parties down the line that interest me.

I've currently got a Wii U, and plan on buying a PS4 closer to the time inFAMOUS: Second Son comes out. 

[NintendoReport]

I am getting a PS4 for the lower meta critic scores

[Abcdude]

I'll buy a PS4 next christmas, when it's discounted and has 5 games.

[Ledo Jaeger]

I'm intrigued by the PS4, and will almost certainly seek one around KH3 time

If this is for last yr then the ps4 blow the wii u out the water.

The wii u has been out longer and should of sold more,

But ah, the wii u does need to do better.

Its a great system just need to put it to work and market it.

Always keep in mind different audiences are seeking different types of games, and that quality is in the eye of the beholder. There is a bunch of different things Sony has done with the PS4 to appeal to developers and gamers alike. A lot of games available on the PS4 aren't available on other consoles. Nifty things like PS Plus complementing PS3 and Vita owners, and on that note, Sony makes those three pieces of hardware feel connected, a lot more than 3DS to the Wii U.

I know right, when I learned that the PS+ subscription extended to your PS3 and Vita I was baffled. AND you get monthly free games for each system. Makes me want to buy a PS3 and Vita.

I still stand by prediction that worldwide the PS4 will shift 20 million units in its first year. 

[DexterousGecko]

One thing I've noticed is that a lot of people seem to only look at exclusives when comparing consoles. It's the quality of third party games that appeal to me with Sony. I don't even like their first person titles, it's the system itself (OS), the services (ps+) and dedication to devs (good third party support) that appeal to me. When I'm living in Asia, I can buy a ps game and know that it will work, unlike xbox where I had to double check every game to see if they made a different version. People ask me to show 1 game, but there are tons! Don't limit yourself to only exclusive games! I guess I'm different, in that most exclusive games don't appeal to me (with a very few exceptions: xenogears, ff back in the day)
