XB1 will.

With new games XB1 will continue the trend of outselling the Wii U by around 35% on average as it has Year-to-date. This will let XB1 slowly catch and pass Wii U within the next year.

Then by mid-2016 (give or take) Wii U sales will drop to a trickle, allowing XB1 to grow it's lead and eventually sell double Wii U lifetime.

so sure are you a medium? you should be cautious ,you and some others have to use words like: might likely etc, words that express uncertainty,you re making estimates!double...?how?xbone 3party dont mean anything because of ps4 and halo isnt so popular in europe...!i can accept xbone win against wii u,but not double lifetime!guys wii u hasnt got a price drop like xbone,why do you keep ignoring this?

Why should I be careful?  It's not a news article, it's an opinion.  Everything is an estimate.  You don't have to agree.

What you keep ignoring is that Nintendo is not the only company that can boost it's baseline with games.  MS has games coming, 1st and 3rd party.  Plus I am conscious to MS' ability to spend mega bucks for marketing, buy exclusivity, and agressive price competition.

The reason why I think XB1 will go on to sell double is because I think Wii U has a high chance of running out of steam early.  Historically speaking, consoles that are selling badly don't have long legs, and Wii U is not only selling badly but has the lowest amount of developer support of a console in 2 decades.

yeah i disagree ,i said you,that ps4 canibalizing xbone third party and halo isnt so popular in europe...however in your quote you put it better ;)your certainty drove me crazy not your opinion:P(and the double lifetime for xbone):P
