Holy shit, those WiiU numbers. If these numbers are true, then that's what you call a system seller. Based on VGC numbers lately, I'll wait for NPD, but good job if that's the case. 

VGC has been pretty accurate with PS4 numbers all year, so I think I can take those numbers at face value. However, I find it hard to believe that if WD could almost double PS4 sales, it didn't nothing for the XBone. I know the price cut is coming up soon, so that may be a reason. But it hasn't been advertised at all. And according to some people around here, only us forum goers know about news like that. The "average gamer" doesn't have a clue a price cut is coming (since it hasn't been advertised).....so why would the XBone not get a boost in sales from WD?

Really?  I've seen it plastered across TV around here (VT).  Others have said the same.

There's weekly ads in the mail at my address from Walmart, Best Buy, etc. and I haven't seen anything. Nor have I seen anything on TV. You can find it online, but not everyone shops online. Not enough, I don't think, to majorly affect total sales.
