This new found certainty of Nintendo fans that the Wii U will end up 2. is kinda unfounded

In the first half of 2014 the X1 has outsold the first half of 2013 for the Wii U by about 2 to 1 and now people jump to the conclusions that the Wii U will be second because the Wii U (second year) is slightly outselling the X1 (first year) for a couple weeks, while still being clearly behind overall even in 2014?

Bolded part is the part that proves that your argument is wrong. There are legitimate reasons to assert that Nintendo fans shouldn't jump the gun in proclaiming it... but that isn't one of them. And since it's your entire argument, it's quite simply a bad one.

Yeah, no it really doesn't. Jumping the gun because of a couple good weeks is completely irrational, it's the same thing you did last holiday season, when you declared that the Wii U was not having any trouble in Japan anymore and that it wouldn't drop sub 10k over there anymore either because it had a good holiday season, just to then be proven completely wrong a couple weeks later.
