Forums - Gaming Discussion - When Will Xbox One Outsell Wii U?

Might never happen. Might happen pretty soon. I'd guess this holiday.

It is near the end of the end....

The Xbox One still needs to launch in the rest of the world. Then it will catch up.

Please Watch/Share this video so it gets shown in Hollywood.

maybe in 6 months!!



Wii U will sell more than One this year i think, Halo 2 remake wont be enough, there is no huge system seller, just 2 good potential system seller with Titanfall and Halo 2 remake on One .

against SSB, MK8, both are huge system seller + X a good potential system seller and maybe Bayonetta 2 and Yoshi.



Predictions for end of 2014 HW sales:

 PS4: 17m   XB1: 10m    WiiU: 10m   Vita: 10m

Honestly it might not be until fall this year...



I think the Xbox one will eventually pass the Wii U.But Mario Kart and SSM Bros may slow its momentum.

with the next halo, titanfall, sunset overdrive, quantum break, and the next call of duty to hit in the holidays, I'd imagine around then. Or before if ms does a price cut at e3. Or earlier if titanfall has a drastic, drastic domino effect on x1 sales.


With the next Zelda, Bayonetta 2, Mario Kart and the next call of duty to hit in the holidays, I'd imagine Wii U stays second. Especially if Ninty does a pricecut at E3. Or earlier if Donkey Kong tropical freeze has a drastic, domino effect on Wii U sales.

See? I can basically say the same.

 You may say that COD sells better on xbox family, but still Wii U will get it. that's what Treyarch is for :)

I'm just going by what the majority of people are saying about the x1 online.  

Tons of people are waiting for halo, call of duty has more impact on the x1 than the wii-u (significantly more impact), and titanfall has been praised heavily by virutally all media outlets (as pretty much everyone who has played the beta- that's a perfect storm for a game to perform well and push hardware sales).  If the just-released mario on wii-u didn't have much impact on pushing wii u sales, what makes you think that donkey kong tf will?  Does donkey kong have a magically huge audience compared to mario's audience?  And judging from previous years, call of duy just has no weight with nintendo hardware- most people familiarize that brand with the xbox or ps.
