To "close the gap", MS has to sell more consoles than the competition. This isn't happening, and HASN'T happened all year. To think that "Sunset Overdrive" is going to change things is ludicrous...the bundle isn't even on the top 100 on Amazon! As for the rest of your comments, it's pure speculation. Let's come back to this thread after Octobers numbers come out, then you will see how bad this "prediction" really is. |
Yes it has.
Q1 WiiU 310k shipped vs XB1 1.1m shipped
Q2 WiiU 510k shipped vs XB1 550k~ shipped.
Q3 XB1 > WiiU again. They've been closing the gap since the day it hit shelves

(VGC numbers) 1.7 million WiiU to 2.2 Million XB1 year to date. Yeah, they had an early lead this year, but post MK8, WiiU has been outselling XB1 worldwide. It will be a close race for the honor of being in distant 2nd place.

WiiU is overtracked, they've been on par and given our Europe numbers are so sketchy it's entirely believeable to think XB1 has been ahead.
I see very little proof as to why WiiU has made some sort of comeback in Europe, this is the place it got minus shipments. A record for the video game industry.
Japan + US for XB1 weekly = 33k~
Japan + US for WiiU weekly = 29k~
Factor in Europe, rest of Americas, UK ect. If either console is winning it's by a tiny amount.
This isn't even August NPD numbers ...
