bump. Again.

The most exciting thing going for X1 is actually Destiny -- but not sure that'll move HW the same way it will for PS4

Multiplats in general aren't contributing any sustained momentum to X1.

Wii u still blazing a comeback!



I predict NX launches in 2017 - not 2016

Not a shit show this year. And things will be slow too slow for early-mid next year, so I say later 2015 at the earliest, possibly never.

You have to imagine it'll do it in shipments during July - September Q.

The shipment gap is only 1.15m as it is. And Nintendo obviously don't expect huge sales going forward (3.6m for the next 12 months ...)

Oh how things change. Am I right?



How can XB1 overtake WiiU if it's selling less?

Ok, so I think it's time for an updated version of this thread (not that I can find the old one).

When do you think Xbox One (if at all!) will overtake the WiiU. With the news of a cheaper sku coming out June 9th, this may drastically change your former opinion.

I added a poll but it's no fun if you don't put your name to a date

Me? 1st week of October.


The Xbox One has about 7 weeks to sell 2 million units then. 



i whole heartedly believe that the X1 will struggle to surpass the WiiU in lifetime sales, the X1 sales seem to be slowing right now while the WiiU seems to be hitting a silver medal worthy stride.  week in and week out for the last 3 or more months the WiiU has outsold the X1 and thats without any major games past MK8 as of late.

 

The problem i forsee is the gamers who want the multiplat gamers are going to the ps4, and then you have the gamers who want nintendo games, this leaves the X1 out right now, while im sure games like Halo and Gears of War will bring thier own amount of players to the X1 i do believe as with Titanfall(but to a bigger extent) this will be short lived.  What i mean is Halo will bring players over for about 2 months IMO same with Gears after that 2 month period the gamers who want to play those will have or already had a X1.



Good choice peoples ( from the poll)
And its nearly october, and i dont think the xbox one past wii u since mk8 released?



Pocky Lover Boy!

There was one or two weeks I think when the Kniect less Xbox One came out on June 9th.



 

Halo 5 isn't coming out until Q4 2015. So I will say then or never.
