Forums - Microsoft Discussion - XBONE < Wii U in first January: Guys, I was right

 

Will the XBONE beat the Wii U's January?

Yes 324 35.29%
 
No 359 39.11%
 
Really close 140 15.25%
 
See results 93 10.13%
 
Total:916

Meh, only if they are still having supply issues, but i doubt they would. Honestly, I think they will sell more than that in the us alone...

It does have the advantage of a lot more markets than the Xbox One.

ill have to say no. lets make this interesting, even though i do see a possibility of this happening how about we make a bet? even though i am not all that confident in this.


I'll take that bet! Winner gets to put a line of text in the loser's sig for a month. If the numbers are close, let's wait a few weeks for adjustments before deciding who won.

Another reason why I think the Xbox One will outsell the Wii U in January:

  • Xbox 360 January sales: 614k
  • PS3 January sales: 451k
  • Wii U January sales: 283k

The Xbox One has been outselling the 360, PS3, and Wii U so far and has more games releasing in January and February than the 360, PS3, or Wii U (4 games Xbox One, 2 games Xbox 360, 3 games PS3, 1 game Wii U). Plus, like I said before, there's one major release in March that people are going to be buying Xbox One's early for, Titanfall. 


ps3 was heavy heavy heavy supply constrained, not even close to what the xbox one is experiancing, i can go out and buy an xbox one if i wanted too. Both the 360 and ps3 had some of the worst shipping in history for their first december and november,  so of course people are gonna have to buy it the next month. Xbox one sales will not be the high due to the fact that anyone can buy it right now

and lol at the preperation for titanfall

Is the Wii U LTD sales only 132 thousand units or am i looking at something else?


I'm only comparing launches. In January of 2013 Wii U did 132 in Japan, 67 in America, and 57 in Europe with 282 total.

Ps3 was heavy supply constrained for like 2 weeks.  The second shipment of ps3's came in and sat on the shelves throughout christmas.  I worked at best buy at the time.



interesting comparison. i've got to say i don't know.



I predict the XB1 January dominating the WiiU's January.



I'd say:
X1 outselling Wii U in USA and UK
Wii U outselling X1 in Germany and France
