It outsold the Wii U in the only market it's currently doing well in. After a $100 price drop.

It's still seems to have been outsold by the Wii U worldwide. According to chartz it was ousold in Europe and hasn't even launched in Japan, where it'll probably see a decent first week, then flop just like the 360 because it has negative press and no really good games for the Japanese market.

The 360 was a flop ? That's news to me ... *rolls eyes* 

Negative press amongst game journalists and forums means nothing about real world reception of the said platform plus Japan is irrelevant for the most part seeing as how all consoles are doing sub 10K weakly including the WII U. I wouldn't put a whole lot of trust either towards vgchartz numbers so I don't see why the WII U would do better in europe than X1. 

You really gonna sit there and tell me negative press doesn't hurt sales?

The XB1 is an exercise in bad press and look at it. It couldn't outsell the PS4 in the US or the Wii U WW, with a major price drop. Yeah chartz is sketchy as hell, but they seem to have been much more accurate this NPD. So even if the XB1 was even in sales with the Wii U within Europe, the Japanese market still puts it ahead WW.
