Yes you did, with the "Don't trust VGC figures" gibe. I already said about the 60k on shelves but it seems it's even less. So why would I (or anyone else believe them)?? I use and believe VGC figures when they make sense.

Shipped they will pretty much be on par by end of September (XB1 6.5m - 7.2m vs WiiU's 7.1m - 7.4m).

I am still betting on XB1 technically (shipment wise, so official) overtaking by end of September. Depends how September goes.

So what makes you think Nintendo won't just ship more, or already have????

What are you talking about?

New shipments from July/Aug-Sept......

Ship more? Of course they're going to ship more. I already factored that in. They shipped 510k last Q with MK bundles and reached 6.68m LTD. I predict anywhere from 420k - 720k shipped.

MS shipped 500k~ XB1's on the back of their Kinectless bundle.

I don't understand why people think the XB1 is going to sell like crazy this holiday. It had a nice launch but sales have been abysmal since then, even after Titanfall and a 25% price cut. There just isn't much consumer interest in it outside of NA, a market it is losing.

Nobody thinks it's going to sell like crazy, just better than WiiU. Which by comparison has done awful pretty much all its life. Even the MK boost (which is a far far bigger property than Titanfall) did naff all for sales.

That and not all is as seems here.

XB1 has outshipped WiiU every Q it's been out, and will continue to so going forward.

okay!but you dont know xbone shippments per quarter, because ms combine them with  the xbo360's

Why exactly won't they ship more?

Besides, you also have to consider that Nov/Dec sales of Wii U will at the very least double from last year, which it was 1.6m with Mario 3D world as the biggesest seller and NO bundle.

Yet another one of these threads that is going to look super silly in a matter of weeks.

WiiU won't be ahead ever again come this holiday.

This.  I'm really getting tired of this kind of threads.  Next month cannot come soon enough.

Why next month? September is clearly going to look like this : Ps4>x1>U

While Oct could be U>X1. Could.

No.
I'm willing to put my VGC account on the line.
If Wii U's global sales are higher than Xbox One's global sales come 1/1/2017, I'll request a permaban to my account.

S.T.A.G.E. on 02 September 2014

These guys keep forgetting about exclusives like Halo and Gears. Halo at least sells 8 million copies for main franchise games. Xbox Ones will be selling like hotcakes compared to Nintendo once that game comes out plus COD coming out in november will boost PS4 and Xbox One sales.
