Forums - Gaming Discussion - Xbox still behind wii U this week again

 

Is this surprising?

no 386 81.95%
 
hell yeah 85 18.05%
 
Total:471

What do u think of this week?

Should xbox have passed wii u (units sold per week) or u think its reasonable for wii u to have the lead.

BTW Im happy about this




hope 4 majora remake :D

Yeah, I'm surprised it's still behind the wiiU. Looks like the price drop didn't have as huge of an effect as some people thought it would.



It needs gamezz damn it! Like one for summer and it has to be exclusive



                  

PC Specs: CPU: 7800X3D || GPU: Strix 4090 || RAM: 32GB DDR5 6000 || Main SSD: WD 2TB SN850

I'd consider it a tie for now. The WiiU/X1's sales for the last two weeks have both been so close that VGC's margin for error could still easily put one above the other by a significant amount (relative to their current sales anyway).



-Mario kart 8
- Wii u is available in more countries (I believe)
- lower price. Wii u is cheap
The Xbox one has been outselling the Wii u this year. The Wii u did better other times but the Wii u should have insane sales since its cheaper.

This Wii U vs Xbox One debate is annoying. It's like this:

"Wii U shall beat Xbox One! Wii U sold 59k and Xbox One sold 58k!!!!!!!!!!"

"But the Wii U will drop faster! It dropped 3k from week ending July 12th, and Xbox One dropped only 2k!!!!!"

"Smash Bros.!"

"Masterchief Collection!"

"Those are remakes!"

"Wii U has no Third Party support!"

"Third party games only sell on PS4!"

"No Kinect anymore!"

"$100 cheaper!"

"You have game droughts!"

"You have no exclusives!"

"Xbox One will last longer!"

"How the hell can you determine that?"

"Uh... because 360 lasted long!"

"But that console sold well, Xbox One isn't!"

"Wii sold well, Wii U isn't!"

"But It's different!"

"Explain why!"

"Mario Kart 8 moved consoles to over 100k and got an 89 on Metacritic!

"So did Titanfall, and that got an 86!"

"Mario Kart 8's effect lasted longer!"

"It's probably overtracked!"

"It isn't! Wii U outsold Xbox One in May, June, and currently July!"

"Xbox One outsold Wii U in January, February, March, and April!"

"But Wii U will win in August onwards thanks to Hyrule Warriors, Bayonetta 2, and Smash Bros.! So Wii U will outsell Xbox One in more months!!!!

"Wii U haz no gaemz!"

"Xbox One haz no gaemz!"

"FUCK YOU!"

"NO, FUCK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

I think this sums up the war perfectly xD



Current Consoles: Gaming PC, Wii U, 3DS

Don't forget the Xbone is likely over tracked by quite a bit here. I'd be kinda surprised if it was actually over 4.8 million.




8th gen predictions. (made early 2014)
PS4: 60-65m
WiiU: 30-35m
X1: 30-35m
3DS: 80-85m
PSV: 15-20m

I'd really like to know if this is true.

"It isn't! Wii U outsold Xbox One in May, June, and currently July!"

You forgot to say XBone will have Destiny and a bunch of 3rd party games on September onward. Looks like Wii U vs Xbone will be a great battle.

"FUCK YOU!"

"NO, FUCK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

That's a bit of a mean ending



Bet with bluedawgs: I say Switch will outsell PS4 in 2018, he says PS4 will outsell Switch. He's now permabanned, but the bet will remain in my sig.
