90% of the internet already believes XBO is doomed, as long as PS4 > XBO, it was always going to be doomed


Yes but many people have said that it is doing good regardless of being outsold, the same has not been said about Wii U.


Was the wiiU doomed in jan 2013? I think the wiiU became doomed later in the year. It was a steady decline mainly because it didn't have games. The same can't be said about xbox one.

Japan.

XB1 sold more in US in its first Jan then WiiU did in US + Europe.

The thing is that Japan wouldn't have made a significant difference for the X1, wouldn't you agree? X1 January numbers aren't great, there's no two ways about that.

I do feel that MS has alot more things they can do with the X1 to turn the ship around than Nintendo can/could do with the Wii U though.

Unfair comparison. Xbox One still has to release in Japan, its strongest region.


If I would still come to vgchartz, I would have posted exactly that.



So it is happening...PS4 preorder.

Greatness Awaits!

Well seeing as how the wiiu had no competition in its jan I still say its worse for the wiiu but still not good for x1

What do the doomsayers have to say now?

Xbox One is doomed?

I certainly don't think this is evidence that Wii U has a bright future ahead of it.

well X1 should be 349$-399$ its way over priced and the ps4 is eating its dinner, and then you have to factor in japan is in holidays in the first 10 days of january, which is why the wiiu sold well the first 2 weeks of jan, so in reality the wiiu is still doomed, and the X1 need get a kinectless box so that they could sell for 349$, othere wise they are going to be left in the dust by the ps4.



I thought they were both Doomed?



Xbox One is losing momentum with its price tag. "Expensive hardware with a weaker specs" That's how things are in the market for consumers. No matter how many defending articles like "eSRAM is more efficient" keep coming, it's price will always be the impeding factor.



LoL such obvious attempt at making wii u seem legit

First off wii u had no competition, was $200 less and was made available in more regions!
How's it doing now lmao

Indeed. I expect a fierce battle between Xbox One and the Vita TV in Japan.


I still expect vita tv to win.
