X1 is not doomed at all. It just probably wont have as many sales as the PS4 world wide. That doesn't mean it's doomed or will fail, because it will have plenty of great games. Just look at the PS3's slow start... it didn't mean it was doomed or failed (as it finished with the second most sales last gen after trailing for years) and had arguably some of the best games of last gen.
The US will probably be the only market that the X1 has a chance to beat the PS4 and with the bad media originally, the higher price point, and lower specs, that probably wont happen. But that does not indicate "failure" in the slightest.
