Wii: 7,4 Million in December 2009

360: 3,982 Million in December 2011

PS3: 3,9 Million in December 2009

I know it's an unfair fight for the Wii U.. but I didn't want to discriminate

I would say that PS4 and XB1 could pull of 3,9 M in December 2015... though that'll depend on which third parties are released on top of the big guns like Halo 5 and Uncharted 4

For reference in December 2013 it was 2,3M (with stock shortages) for PS4 and 1,5M for XB1 (with limited release, country-wise). Surely 3,9M next year is far from impossible?

Ps4, Hell yes, X1, Maybe, WiiU, Nope



                  

PC Specs: CPU: 7800X3D || GPU: Strix 4090 || RAM: 32GB DDR5 6000 || Main SSD: WD 2TB SN850

PS4 will definitely do it in December 2015.
Honestly, it might do it in this December depending on supply.

XBO could do it if things line up perfectly Holiday 2015 or if they have another "Kinect" that makes sales jump. I'm gonna say it won't for now.

Wii U won't do what Wii did in one month with November + December any year...



In about a year. PS3 and 360 still have decent sales. As with ps2, sony will still support ps3. Plus the heavy hitters will be coming out in the call through early next year. I believe ps4 sales are going to be crazy during that time



No way for 2015.

The PS4 and XBOne will most likely do it in December 2016 after the first official price drops. And I think I am being optimistic here. Typically consoles peak in sales around their 3rd year on the market (so December 2016).

WiiU can only beat the Wii if Nintendo make it

Could the WiiU even sell that much in an entire year? XD



wii u-never
xbox one- never
ps4- possibly this december, if not, then next december...



It's Amazing you people diss the wii unless you're comparing it wii u and ps4 will never sell that much in this economy



PS4 - When Uncharted 4 releases maybe?

XB1 - When Halo 5 releases maybe?

WiiU - Yeah, that number is just too ridiculous...
