Apparently this is the highest recorde month for Wii U. Apparently, the highest Wii U NPDwas 461K.

Wii U did the best NPD moth since release... the previous one was 460k (I don't remember which month).
I suspect Nintendo is not happy with 3DS holiday sales overall. While not bad per se, I think they had high hopes for better.
That may be why they're a little shy in putting out PR.
Imprecise on WIi / PS3 - but X360 dropped off pretty impressively from it's peak year (2011) to 2013 - 7.3m to 3.15m in two years in the US. Wii peaked at 10.2m in 2008, fell to 7.1m in 2010 - PS3 peaked at 4.5m in 2011, and has fallen to (probably) 2.3m in 2013.

They hinted last week ~1m in US... NPD says best selling hardware in December and 2013.

It's all good for me. Every week I see PS4 dominate WW home console sales. I'm good...
But you, you seem to be angry when I see your post.

Hints. PS4 > 679k |
Ohhhh so I guess that still means some Wii U success story believers 
Wonder how much PS4 sold, since we know the end figures it either means close in US to Xbone or even bigger European domination.
So it is happening...PS4 preorder.
Greatness Awaits!
| fallen said: So now we get the spin... PS4 is first in USA LTD! Bubu, worldwide! PS4 supply constrained! Etc etc. It's a good result for Xbox. Mostly it (overall good showing in USA) means Xbox cant be ignored by third parties and is in no danger. Now we move onto the next phase, how bad will PS4 win January? How much will Titanfall move the needle for X1 in March? When will Microsoft cut the XBO price to 399 so they have a fair chance? |
An absolute FACT can not be called SPIN....If you are the leader in USA lifetime (8th gen), this is a fact, the same fact as Xbox One being the best 8th gen selling console in December in USA.
To say PS4 is leading worldwide, besides being a fact too, is just a manner to reflect what really matters.
I can admit, that supply constraint can be considered an excuse and Sony's fault.
For me, the real spin, is to consider a slight victory in a month for Xbox One over PS4 as some kind of victory, what a phyrric victory then....
This doesn't change the fact that those numbers Xbox One achieved are great and Microsoft can be satisfied with them.

They will probably wait the release in Japan until they release new global numbers. You know to have even a better one...
