I reckon 1m+ shipped ahead, but sales of around 500k ahead.

Can't see that happening. Those numbers are a pipe dream at best. XBO will not outsell the Wii U by 2.6 million (if we go by current VGC #'s) or 2.3million (If the Wii U is overtracked by 300k) from now until the end of December.
The Wii U last year sold nearly 2 million from September to end of Decemeber 2013 last year. With better bundles, baseline and Smash in November, they should be able to move 3.5 million consoles (sold) in that time frame whereas I cannot see XBO exceeding 4.5 million (which is still respectable sales).
The Wii U should be able to maintain it's lead at least until Sping of 2015.

See you call it a pipe dream but out estimates are not that different from one another.
This Q MS will ship around 1.6m+ whilst WiiU around 600k (both could do more) so the shipment gap will be null going into October.
Over the holidays I see MS being a little up yoy thanks to more aggressive moves in the US, October and other countries, so like you, 4.5m. But I only see around 3m for WiiU. Either way it gives XB1 a 1.5m shipped lead which means an inevitable sales lead.

So in your special little world, nintendo will ship in its holiday Q with 5 new games and a back log of games and a bunch of new bundles and a increased baseline, the same as the summer Q, wich is the worst selling Q of all against the biggest Q. Do you realy see that as a posibility? Considering last year they sold 1.6m with no bundles, just one new game and the hype for ps4/x1 release against it, you still think they will sell less then last year?
