Isn't the Wii U already beating the Xbox One in mainland Europe and Japan? And if Nintendo is supposed to go for the kill, wouldn't they have to beat Microsoft in the USA and the UK?

Essentially, Nintendo is already in second place where Xbox is weak, and they won't win where it supposedly matters.

Both XB1 and Wii U sell like crap in mainland Europe, so if one is better than the the other it's probably a wash at best. I think XB1 still outsells the Wii U in mainland Europe by just having FIFA. 

Japan is the only market where the WIi U outsells the XB1 by a notable margin. 

Nintendo has to compete in the US and UK. Taking the approach of simply ceding those markets is no approach at all.

Fifa doesn't seem to be doing much for XB1 in mainland Europe, and that is with MS paying for ads & features.

EDIT - Fifa launch month, Spain - http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=209063

But yeah, both are selling like crap so beating the other isn't anything to brag about.
