Look, 2015 could be horrible for the Wii U, but the games we are getting on wii u in the second half of this year are going to make the wii u epic in 2014 and the sales are gonna boost like crazy. Does Vita or Xbox one have as many heavy hitters coming in 2014 as the Wii U does? I'm seriously asking those that are informed about xbox/vita games are the 2014 games comparable in terms of impact to the 2014 wii u games that are coming?

Well, the Wii U has 2 heavy hitters this year that we know of with Smash/MK. X1 only has Halo, but it also has a bunch of medium games like Quantum Break, Sunset Overdrive, and Fable Legends. There are also supposedly a few unannounced exclusives coming in 2014 IIRC. That plus good third party support should easily allow the X1 to outpace the Wii U, but whether it passes it before the end of 2014 is stil debatable. Vita is just getting a ton of Japanese support, and has had a higher baseline than the Wii U so far this year because of it. The Wii U has to sell 2m more than the Vita this year to outsell it, which is possible but probably not very likely. Even if Western support and numbers don't improve, the vita is doing well enough in Japan that MK and smash probably won't be enough to put the Wii U ahead.
