PS4 is solid first. The question is by how much, and in what regions. Wii U has a reasonable chance in Japan of beating PS4. XBO has a reasonable chance of competing with PS4 in US and UK, though at this rate I feel like it'll end in a statistical tie at best. I still think there's a small chance of Wii U competing with XBO, though it's certainly looking like it's a matter of just how much it will lose by at this point. Really, I'm just glad that Wii U made enough of a comeback to have a normal Nintendo console lifespan, and it's surprising enough that XBO has competed with PS4 for this long.

That said, generations never seem to turn out quite like anyone expects. Let's just wait until something interesting happens, because it will, even if it changes nothing in the rankings in the end.

Don't care, have Smash.

People who comment that they don't care, usually care more than anyone else.

Your boast of a single game does not impress me.

How about Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze, Super Mario 3D World, The Legend of Zelda: the Wind Waker HD, Pikmin 3, Mario Kart 8, Bayonetta 2 and Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker? I'm not including Rayman Legends because that game is also on the XBONE.

XBONE has a very poor line-up so far. Most multiplats are better on the PS4 or you can also play on the 7th gen consoles. It's highest rated game on Metacritic is Minecraft! The only interesting exclusive game on the XBONE currently is Sunset Overdrive. The Halo remake is just a broken mess. Can't believe it got such a high metacritic score, thank god it's not over 90% though. XBONE basically had to cut its price by almost 50% to stay relevant.

Do I care? Yep, because Wii U deserves better sales. Though I'd rather play good games than just look at some statistics online. ;)

You realize there's only a single game that breaks from the traditional Nintendo fold. If people aren't crazy about Nintendo's games, then the Wii U still has very little for them.

I don't think it's 'set it stone' quite yet, but it's certainly the most probable outcome right now.

You think the WiiU can outsell the Xbox One?

Nah, the chances of that happening are laughably small. Without 3rd party support the WiiU won't find proper momentum in the core market, and the casuals don't seem to care much either. There's always a chance, but i can't think of anything Nintendo could do to achieve it.

I meant more that i think the X1 has a chance at 1st place (or at least being close). I can't personally see it happening, especially since (assuming VGC numbers are correct) the PS4 is still outselling the X1 WW despite every promotion, price cut and bundle MS throw at them, but i still think it has a small chance.

Why does that matter? I didn't even list Hyrule Warriors because I do not deem it good enough. How many games does XBONE have that break the traditional mold of that console? You're better off with a PS4 because the multiplats perform better on it. Exclusive wise the XBONE is looking very bleak.
