First week of post holiday sales haven't been released yet...

What I was going to say. I expect PS4 to be down in the low 200's in the first true post holiday week (I wish they'd hurry up already) and then into the 100's from then on. Pretty much similar to the baseline in January last year.

I would like to see Wii U holding much closer to Xb one this year. But I just don't see it happening.

It won't, the gulf between the software is night and day. 

Wii U not recieving anything of note till may. In the same period xbox will have Dying light, Evolve, battlefield, Final Fantasy Type 0, Witcher 3 and knowing microsoft a bundle for each lol

mario party?

that bolbed part of final fantasy raising xbox one sales I laughed at

plus only 2 games out all of those are excluisve marketed by microsoft

witcher and evolve

everything else is sony's marketing

Meanwhile GTA V exclusively marketed by sony  reaches 2.13m on X1, big game=big game, its gonna provide a hardware boost .... Whats most important is that these are next gen exclusives, people can't play these games on their 360. Something we didn't have much of in 2014 (only ACU-which was worse the rogue- and UFC)

Oh and forgot about mario party in march (?), still night and day though. Also I would probably bet that Xbox One hardware is boosted somewhat during that week, obviously its not gonna be a big system seller for MS but its boost WW will probably be bigger then what Bayonetta and Toad offered Wii U
