Ok, so here is the bet: I think that XB1 will sell 30 million before Wii U sells 15 million. Winner gets 3 years of avatar control (no, this isn't the wrong, I'll repeat it, 3 years) and loser has to say this for their whole lives (or at least as long as they're on vgchartz) "I am a failure and will never do anything right, and [Winner's name here] is the best person on vgchartz and I'll never be 1/2 as good as him". So yes the stakes are high, lets see who's willing to enter the hot seat! First come first serve!

I already say this regularly so I really wouldn't have much to lose.

This year will be the big one for this bet. The PS4 and Wii U will both get price cuts while the Xbox One...well the Xbox division will probably be on thin ice after the fiscal year is over. So the Xbox One will have competition and the Wii U is rising in both sales and people's opinions. Going to be interesting on all fronts this year in terms of where sales go.

Still, the Wii U is going to have a tough time, and XB1 and PS4 will have price cuts. Plus Wii U will probably be on par with last year, while XB1 will be above it. Like I said, long going bet, but its worth it! Anyway I'll bump it again when I win or lose.

wiiu sold 3m this year. People think it can make 15m? It's at 8.5m
xb1 has 11m and 8m sold this year.
This bet will take at the least, 2 years to solve.

Wii U sold 3.5 million this year and is at 8.9m

XBO sold 7.7m this (last) year, and is at 11m

I'm really doubting the Wii U here, but no need to make things look even worse than they already are

It's a long term bet, so the anxiety is there! And the XB1 will 100% sure reach 30 million. It'll get AT LEAST 10 million this year. So yeh!

Made a bet with thedawghousev2 that XB1 will reach 30 million sales before Wii U reaches 15 million. Loser is screwed and humiliated for life!

haha true true. The numbers do add up. If wiiU has a price drop..I could see it winning the bet.
