Well this is getting akward
I have to say it just because it's fun to remind all the Wii-U fans who were claiming doom and gloom for 8th gen, just because Wii-U failed... These aren't even aligned launches. PS4 is decimating this badly, despite having launched 1 year later. I can't wait until PS4 passes up the Wii, just to ruin the day of those guys too lol
It looks like Wii ruined your fun.
