From what I have seen people say, the Xbone and PS4 will outsell the Wii U by the end of this year?

Normally I should think a week will be included in the year it has the most days in it, thus that last week will actually be counted in 2014.

For the purposes of this kind of thing though adding on half of the sales for the week ending 4th Jan seems reasonable... in "real-time" then it's actually just under 7 weeks (15th to 31st is 46 days) but using VGC data from 7 + 1/2 a week

Most of the sales that week will be during december. Stores are closed on the 1st and 29. 30,31 are much bigger buying days.

In America maybe, in the UK... possibly, in central Europe and Japanthe first few days in January are bigger than the last few in December.

You are probably right that overall the balance of sales that week are in favour of December over January due to New Years Day closure, but it won't be significant and it is rather unfair to class all that week as part of 2013 sales (especially when VGC, NPD etc will class it as the 1st week of 2014 for tracking purposes)
