Forums - Sales Discussion - When will the Wii U/X1 get their 10th retail million seller? Who will reach the goal first?

DerNebel on 21 August 2014

So the PS4 is only a couple weeks away from that milestone (I'd say 3), even before the release of Destiny both TLOU:R and NBA 2K14 should reach the 1 million barrier, giving the console 11 million sellers in less then a year.

Now that begs the question, when will the other two reach that number and what game will be the 10th for them? And who will get there first?

Just some startup information:

Smash Bros will certainly do it so probably 2015, maybe even early 2015 if they have a promo with SSB

Wii U mid-2015

Xbox One-Early 2015



MoHasanie on 21 August 2014

Smash Bros will easily cross 1 million. HW might take some time but could do it. I'll say mid 2015 for Wii U. 
For X1, the next million seller will obviously be Destiny and then Fifa and then COD, so probably around November.

Goes to show that software on all three consoles is doing just fine :).

I would say X1 this fall and WiiU early 2015.



DonFerrari on 21 August 2014

X1 will get there before WiiU. Destiny and then MCC, Ryse may hit 1M in between.

Both easily before Christmas, it's not going to be some hard achievement for either.

I suspect Smash to be WiiU's 10th after one of the others is the 9th, and the first big game after Destiny, which will be it's 9th, to be the XBox's 10th. It also has Halo coming. During Christmas a few of the games out already for both systems will also become million sellers, like Pikmin and Ryse. Maybe (probably) even Donkey Kong.

How do you copy-paste tabels?



DonFerrari on 21 August 2014

For the next on ps4 destiny, fifa, cod, gta, driveclub and lbp3. So we may see 15 million sellers this year already.
