Here I go with a complicated prediction.

The PS4 will overtake the Wii U during the Christmas 2014 season as it becomes the superior standalone console. The Wii U will overtake the PS4 again some time between 2017 and 2019 as the Gen 8 consoles hit midlife and the Wii U demonstrates itself to be a superior support/ secondary console.

There's no way that Nintendo will support it enough for that to happen. Even if they did, Sony has the distributional edge pretty much everywhere in the world but in Japan and NA 

@Osed: I wasn't being serious lulz. Wasn't there a rumour about something like 10...or was it 16...million PS4's being sold this year?

So that would mean that after 2019, PS4 could top WiiU again then? LOL!

Nintendo doesn't need to be the only publisher which supports the Wii for it to take off. If the casual audience is large again, and Ubisoft makes more games like Just Dance, Wii U sales could really explode.
