I believe it will happen on the holiday. Wii U had been in it 2 years in a row without showing any pontential of selling huge, on the other hand, Xbox one have the pontential to sell huge this holiday season.considering US is the strongest market for Microsoft.


That is assuming that Wii U has, at any point in it's history thus far, had a MUST HAVE, console selling title that makes people go out and get the system. It really hasn't. It has a bunch of a very good games on it. But not a single one of them is that big, MUST HAVE game that makes people finally want to go ahead and get Wii U. Mario Kart 8 and Smash Bros. will provide that, both. An inevitable MK8 bundle deal will also likely help during the holidays, as people could then buy a Wii U both games for relatively cheap. There is alse the outside chance we get the Zelda U game late this year, and even if not, games like Sonic Boom (thankfully not developed by Sega), X, SMT x Fire Emblem, etc. will sweeten the deal.

Point being, even if XBone is poised to have a pretty strong holiday 2014, Wii U will still be cheaper, still have backwards compatibility, still have free online, and still have a larger, more robust offering of games available for it.
