Gamecubed shipped 4.09m in the following year (which will be WiiU's 2015.) So at best it will outsell it 1m~
2016 onwards WiiU will begin to fall like every other Nintendo device has in the 3rd year.
Gamecube shipped 2.58m in the year following that (WiiU's 2016). Given this isn't far off what it did in is first full year (2.8m). It just seems difficult for me to agree WIiU will sell above Gamecube enough to overtake it.
When Nintendo systems start to slow down it seems they literally just free fall, or at least that's what the last few systems have shown.
Also WiiU won't be up YOY in 2015 until it gets a price cut. All the software coming out (Especially in Q1/Q2) is very niche.
