As you people may know, NPD figures were released recently for the month of June and it showed that PS4 sold most in the US, followed by XB1 and Wii U.
Well, according to VGChartz, the Wii U outsold the XB1 globally in the month of June.
PS4:511,167
Wii U: 349,188
XB1: 299,560
3DS: 615,716
PSV: 164,686
PS4 is still dominating the home console market. 3DS is murdering the PSV. XB1 got a price cut yet was still outsold by the Wii U.
Is the Wii U still doomed?
EDIT: So it turns out that after taking NPD numbers te Wii U outsold the XB1 351k to 312k!
Also big thanks to drake_tolu for helping with the calculations!

I think it is important to realize that the Wii U outselling the Xbox One shows how bad the X1 is doing, and not the other way around. Don't kid yourself, the Wii U is still on a trajectory to sell 16-20m.

I like how people still try to turn positive Wii U news to just plain news. Obviously both are not selling that well. Hell, the PS4 is arguably not selling that well compared to previous generation, buth the fact that the Wii U outsold the XB1 is positive news.
Haters were saying that the XB1 and PS4 were going to dominate the Wii U and that the Wii U will be irrelevant and that the Wii U will sell worse than the GC. The PS4 is dominating without a doubt but when a so called 'dead' console is revived and sells more than a less than a year old console, then that is great news.
