Consider the situation. WiiU has that lead after already releasing most of their main games, and after a price cut. PS4 has yet to even release one of its main big games (Bloodborne as well recieved as it is, is not one of those games), and has not recieved a price cut yet. WiiU doesn't have much left to throw at the PS4 going forward, while PS4 not only has pretty much every card left to play, but the console will get a lot more games than WiiU over the years. |
That's why I said I doubt it will stay ahead. But, looking at those two choices as things stand, now, the Wii U staying ahead of the PS4 in Japan has a much better chance of happening than XBO all of a sudden claiming US. The Wii U is already ahead. And with the state of console gaming like it is in Japan, and the Wii U still having a price cut or two left, with maybe a couple of big games on the way (if they don't move to NX), it's going to take the PS4 probably another year or so to overtake it. Which I think will 100% happen.
The XBO, on the other hand, has to overcome a gap. It hasn't even started started outselling the PS4. The gap just continues to grow, and with a PS4 price cut on the way, things are going to start looking worse. That's why I think it's foolish to say that the XBO has a better chance of passing the PS4 in the US.
