Yes, easily, obviously. Will X1 outsell PS3,though?


What exactly is obvious about it? Pretty much nothing. Smash appeals to core Nintendo fans and that's pretty much the only system selling thing WiiU has this holiday.


It'll be PS4 > 3DS > XB1 > WiIU > 360/PS3.

Given good enough bundles though and PS360 can be on par with WiiU, they were nearly double WiiU last holiday =)

I call bullshit. It's a competitive fighter that is held in high regard. Everything else that is coming is just icing on the cake... Xbox has multiplats and halo coming. Oh my... such excite.. 

You can call BS all you like, you'd be wrong. Halo and all those multiplats are open to a much, much bigger potential target audience. So yes, very exciting.

Everything else coming on the WiiU is icing on the cake for WiiU owners, but it won't sell any hardware. Bayo and Hyrule ect are as niche as they come.

WiiU rides on selling Smash to core Nintendo fans this holiday, and Amibo to Skylanders/Disney Infinity fans (market is dying down anyway).

XB1 has the advantage of all its games appealing to the mass audience that had PS360's (125m+). Sure the majority will chose PS4, but there is a lot left over that will want XB1 too.

Hence as we're seeing/will see. Madden, Destiny ect. Multiplats selling XB1's.

See the UK split btw for Destiny?


I can't be wrong for an opinion. I can call bullshit, but I never said you were wrong because you have your opinion. You are basing your opinion on facts that aren't even related to upcoming first party Wii U games.  

Honestly, just admit you are just as clueless as I am in regard to this holiday. You are making so many bold claims like you have researched this or you know crowds. 

PS3 and 360 are slowing down quite a bit. Halo is not the system seller it once was, relying on re-releases to even sell the game now. Those potential audiences have all moved to the PS4, the Xbox is just running on a niche crowd at the moment. 

Wii U, although true sells to core Nintendo fans, there is the non-core crowd that will buy a Wii U for Smash and other titles coming and past titles. Amiibos are selling out at retailers so it shows a strong demand for those. 

XB1 really has no advantage it has Halo. That game only appeals to low-brow dude-bro gamers whom if they were given a good proper game would say it sucks and compare it to CoD. 

Also what does Destiny have to do with anything? Destiny will not sell during the holiday.
