I would hope the Wii would win U.K. but it looks like it will be 360. Nintendo needs to do more in U.K. region to counter the Microsoft movement. Best case scenario is that a Wii U fever breaks out in the U.K. which probably wouldn't be enough to stunt 360s sales. However, I don't think the 360 will pass the Wii in North America. That would probably have been a better thread considering it is more up to chance and further behind.

Yeah I had to quote you when that happens =p...If you remember...   Glad you are not bailing out.

And we already had threads about Xbox 360 outselling the Wii in USA. (not sure that we have thread about NA though).

Yea I suppose you are right.  We probably did have a few of those threads (Wii vs 360 N.A.) in the past.  I'm still pretty optimistic about a $100 Wii in USA/Canada.  While sales will fall off a lot after this holiday season the Wii will still do decently this season.  You can hold me to that quote because I have over a 90% feeling that 360 can't overtake the Wii in N.A.  360 would have to be on the market in 2014/15 to pass the Wii in N.A. considering the Wii has ~4m lead right now.

Yeah but it are weeks like this where it outsells the Wii in NA with like 100K and possible a lot more.  That 4 million will be 3 million at the end of this year? 

On 7 January the lead for the Wii was 5,6 million...After around 44 weeks it closed that gap to 4 million...And the weeks where the X360 makes the biggest gain are coming up...So yeah the gap will be in january  around 3 million...2014 or even more early they will pass the Wii...   It all depends who get the pricecut first :)....
