There's really no point in comparing two consoles selling this terribly. The big news is not the X1 overtaking the Wii U's sales; hair-trigger titles could make that inconsequential sales jump.

The big news is that Hyrule Warriors has had inconsequential sales in Japan.


Terribly? Xbox One has never had a week under 35k Worldwide. Wii U has had 40 of those weeks. Not counting the overtracking going on here for Wii U.

That would be a fair comparison if they had launched at the same time. The X1 has been on the market 3 quarters, the Wii U 7. Nintendo's most recent successful consoles--the DS and the Wii--sold the most units almost 2 years into their product lives. Microsoft's most successful console, the 360, peaked out in its third quarter.

Both of these consoles are where their predecessors were selling like crazy and they are badly falling behind. That's what I mean by terrible sales.
