It is not fact. There is absolutely no real basis for your claims. You're claiming them because you think you understand the market. The market is not a simple blob of people buying on a whim + core gamers who always buy. There are a large variety of factors, and one very large factor are the games. Another one is marketing. Simply being Wii U or simply being XBox One or PS4 does not have much bearing at all on overall sales. What do you think happened with the Wii? It was #1 but most people thought it would flop at the time. The Gamecube was expected to do well, but it flopped. The PSP flopped in comparison to the DS, which if you do some research, lots of people expected the DS to be a flop.
You're basing what you said on opinion. What I'm saying can't really be disproven because I'm not actually making a claim, it's simply an observation that shows that we don't know what hasn't happened yet, and it isn't so simple to say who will come out on top.

Sure, I will agree with you, and I hope Wii U becomes #1 over PS4 and XboxOne, but in my opinion (like you said) it will not happen.

I don't think it's fair to rule out the Wii U completely when the other consoles haven't even released yet and the Wii U hasn't even gotten its games yet. If we judged the 3DS before it got its games, it would have looked like the Vita would have outsold it.
Personally, if things end up the way the Internet makes it seem like, I think PS4 will be #1, Wii U #2, and XBox One #3. A large reason for putting Microsoft on bottom is because they will pretty much not have any of the market in Japan.
