How can't this happen?

PS4 shipped 4.5 million units in 2013, the year it released.

The WiiU will be announced in 2016. lets say, best case scenario, (and most likely). that it gets announced early 2016 with a holiday release date.

it releases in early november. you are expecting nintendo to ship 10-12 million units in two months?

First full year.

This rumor is the second part of this:

"Orders for the NX will be finalized by March 2016, and the sources indicate that Nintendo intends to ship 20 million units during the first year. Now that’s confidence."
