There's not a whole lot to say. The X1 was selling poorly (this is pre-Kinectless and pre-price drop, remember) and the Wii U had a good lead; with the expectation that the Wii U would perform well with MK8 and Smash coming that year leading to a sizable holiday boost. A perfectly logical train of thought would lead to the Wii U hitting that milestone first, but ofcourse we all know what happened.
Hindsight is a wonderful thing, and it tells us not to take things for granted. However at the time the Wii U was a decent bet.
