Forums - Gaming - Can WiiU beat XBO in May NPD?

 

Who will win in May?

WiiU 76 65.52%
 
XBO 40 34.48%
 
Total:116

NPD results for XBO are in, it only sold 115k in April. With MS announcing a Kinect-less SKU releasing in June, it seems reasonable to believe that a lot of people will hold off on buying the XBO this month leading to even lower sales. Meanwhile the WiiU has a major exclusive coming with Mario Kart 8 that may be a massive system seller? Can WiiU actually win? 



Sigs are dumb. And so are you!

Possibly, but the chances are pretty slim. Mario Kart 8 is only out for 2 days this month.

Edit: Add a "See results" option in the poll, please!



Maybe in June? Idk if the x1 is gonna sell more just cause of a price cut without any new games unless there is one launching of course... Than again, Watch_Dogs might carry it so we will see

The chances of this happening would have been much higher if the game didn't release so late in may.



May? no
June? Possibly

Also many people (like me) are holding off buying a Wii U until the MK8 bundle comes out on the 30th.

It would be nice to have April numbers for Wii U first, but I say yes due to bundles...



As others have said, the game comes out too late to make that big of an impact on this months sales.



The xbox one will crush the WII U in May, case closed ...



Way to late for the Wii U.
