Let´s be serious for a second here. In no way will PS VR be able to outsell NX. I mean didn´t Sony themselves estimate year one to be a combined total of 3 million (including OR, Vive)? Even if Nintendo outdoes itself and creates the shittiest console ever they are bound to sell at least 3 million devices in its first 3 Months. Is this thread meant to create some artificially super low expectations for NX so people can can boast "at least it does better than xy"?
Here´s my current thesholds:
PS VR should sell at least 1,5 million in its first 12 months
NX should sell at least 7 million in its first 12 months

lower than that and I´ll consider the devices niche with benefit of the doubt for another 12 months. After that if they still didn´t gain any traction I´ll call them a failure (at least for that gen).

EDIT:Changed prediction as Ka-Pi made me realize that my memory was uterly flawed ><
switched from 2m to 1,5 and from 10 to 7 (PS3 first year)

Well it took the Wii U 36months to sell 10 million I could see PSVR break that so yes I think it indeed is possible for PSVR to do better than a Nintendo console. 

I too can see PS VR hit 10m over its lifetime if it really catches on. However I wouldn´t take the Wii U as any kind of benchmark sales for a home console.
