Nope.

PS4 is for people who like third party games, high end hardware, very good exclusives and social features.

WiiU is for people who like First party amazing exclusives, who don't care about third party games, who don't care about hardware, and who like maps and inventories on their controller.

So basically sony fans should just buy a pc, which vastly outclasses sony in all 4 of your metrics? Got it.

To be honest, if you have the funds, yes.

im inclined to actually agree with this as i bought my wii u for nintendos first party games and those rare 3rd party games like monster hunter that come to the system most of everything else i get on PC.

PC's are more expensive. PC's don't have Sony first party games. PC's aren't standardised, they require more knowledge and effort to get games running. Those are enough reasons to buy PS4 over PC/

I've looked at the PS4 games rumored for release, and PS4 already has a better lineup than Wii-U, and its not even released yet. Sony is gonna own this generation, especially if MS blocks used games. The PS4 is going to be as dominating as the PS1 and PS2 was.

No, Nintendo isn't in competition with Sony or Microsoft. Ever since the Wii's runaway success, fanboys of other consoles have gotten their panties in such a tight twist that many have needed intensive medical attention and filed massive lawsuits against Nintendo. As such, Nintendo has declared that they will not be officially competing with other rival industries that produce the same type of hardware and software in an attempt to avoid future litigation.

Of course, that's merely semantic, as any groups that produce the same kind of product as another at the same time available to the same people is by definition in competition.

Who is Nintendo appealing to? Casuals? Most of that group has Wii systems sitting around collecting dust that they don't even play anymore.
