January 2013 is a five week month (leap year for NPD), so Wii U will probably be around 300k in January. 

2013 is going to be another shitty year for HW, like 2012 (only 18.5m units of hw sold this year, down from 34-35m in 2008-2009).

I think 2013 will go like this, but it would at least be up a bit on 2012:

Wii U - 4.5m (I figure price cut in October, 200k a month for 9 months, 500k Oct, 1m Nov, 1.2m Dec)

3DS - 4.5m (250k for 10 months, 700k Nov, 1.3m Dec)

X360 - 3.5m (200k for 10 months, 500k Nov, 1m Dec, hurt by 720 launch)

PS3 - 2.5m (170k for 10 months, 300k Nov, 500k Dec)

Vita - 1.5m (100k for 10 months, 200k Nov, 300k Dec)

PS4 - 1.0m (400k / 600k)

Wii - 1.0m (65k for 10 months, 150k in Nov, 200k Dec)

X720 - 1.0m (500k / 500k)

DS - 0.5m (30k for 10 months, 100k in Nov, 100k Dec)

I think you're wrong on those 3DS numbers... Animal Crossing and Pokemon is coming this year. That alone will push more HW...
