W/E 8th, COD is tracking ahead of PS4 standalone in US, despite the bundle. COD is biggest in US, along with the bundles (which have nout to do with PS4) = BIG week.
W/E 22nd, I just adjusted down my Wii figure as it's US only. I'm sure WiiU will be up YOY, but you have to remember it did 220k in the entire Nov NPD last year. Take that into consideration, because US is the only place that will get a Smash boost that week. GTAV will still help XB1, it's a huge franchise. It'll just do bigger and better on PS4. It's complimented by Dragon Age and Far Cry 4 releases as well that week.
W/E Black Friday - This is an American holiday and WiiU doesn't stand a chance against XB1 in America on Black friday. Not a chance.

Then, if I take into account what you said, won't the Wii U be overtaken on w/e 22/11?
|
Possibly but I think it'll be black friday, because any miscalculations I've done that could benefit the WiiU will be made up in this week and then some.

Pruning my long-ass quote here: http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=6791709
That said, however, I think you did disregard whatever small effect that Bayonetta 2 had, so I think that margin would rise by 20k. I also expect Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker to boost the Wii U a wee bit further. Also, the later SSB for Wii U release in Japan won't really affect sales much, look at MK8 release week in Japan: sub-20k sales.
However, I seem to have underestimated the impact of the XB1 November lineup, and my bias toward Nintendo may have creeper into what I can take from your figures. So, our biases can even each other out, I guess.
