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.

I can see Halo and Gears of War having a bigger impact than Titanfall.  Those are real exclusives.  Titanfall isn't.  I finally broke down and bought Titanfall...for my PC.  No XBone required.

1st week of October? You where too optimistic Seece! Don't worry though, the Xbox One will outsell the Wii U... eventually!

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

That's quite a good question !

The current situation is selling less and having a 2 millions disadvantage.

WiiU got a nice bump from MK, but they have no major system sellers for the holiday. Xbox One will see a decent bump from COD, Halo, the white Xbox One, and not to mention the Halo 5 beta launches Dec 29. That's going to a huge opportunity to push Xbox One to "play Halo 5" this holiday season.

I think Super Smash Bros for Wii U count as a major system seller, unless it gets delayed (which I doubt), that can push the console even more.



Hopefully NEVVERERRRRRRRR.


But it can mid 2015.

MID 2015 the earliest. NO WAY it will outsell it the moment Destiny comes out.....lol.

when Halo 5 is out, late 2015 i guess



Well this topic failed. With the way things are going, the winds have very clearly shifted. Even without Kinect included, PS4 is now selling 3:1 over The Bone. Since they are such similar systems, there won't be as many people buying both this generation, and since everyone is going for PS4 now, it seals the fate of The Bone.

Meanwhile, Wii U is offering a very different product. Mario Kart gave it a huge boost and Smash Bros. will do even more business for it. When Zelda is released next Fall, it will probably beat or at least match the sales Xbone does for Halo 5. If that holds true, then Wii U will stay above Xbone for its full life.
