"Mario Kart 8's effect lasted longer!"

"It's probably overtracked!"

I'd really like to know if this is true.

"It isn't! Wii U outsold Xbox One in May, June, and currently July!"

"Xbox One outsold Wii U in January, February, March, and April!"

"But Wii U will win in August onwards thanks to Hyrule Warriors, Bayonetta 2, and Smash Bros.! So Wii U will outsell Xbox One in more months!!!!

You forgot to say XBone will have Destiny and a bunch of 3rd party games on September onward. Looks like Wii U vs Xbone will be a great battle.

"FUCK YOU!"

"NO, FUCK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

That's a bit of a mean ending

1. Well, not in the USA and Japan. I don't know about Europe.

2. Well, I kind of addressed that by making the Nintendo fanboy say Third Parties only sell on PS4.

I don't think its that surprising. The next few months will be the real surprising tale. If Wii U outsells Xbox One on a consistent basis from now till the holiday season when Smash launches,then we should all be surprised by it

This Wii U vs Xbox One debate is annoying. It's like this:

"Wii U shall beat Xbox One! Wii U sold 59k and Xbox One sold 58k!!!!!!!!!!"

"But the Wii U will drop faster! It dropped 3k from week ending July 12th, and Xbox One dropped only 2k!!!!!"

"Smash Bros.!"

"Masterchief Collection!"

"Those are remakes!"

"Wii U has no Third Party support!"

"Third party games only sell on PS4!"

"No Kinect anymore!"

"$100 cheaper!"

"You have game droughts!"

"You have no exclusives!"

"Xbox One will last longer!"

"How the hell can you determine that?"

"Uh... because 360 lasted long!"

"But that console sold well, Xbox One isn't!"

"Wii sold well, Wii U isn't!"

"But It's different!"

"Explain why!"

"Mario Kart 8 moved consoles to over 100k and got an 89 on Metacritic!

"So did Titanfall, and that got an 86!"

"Mario Kart 8's effect lasted longer!"

"It's probably overtracked!"

"It isn't! Wii U outsold Xbox One in May, June, and currently July!"

"Xbox One outsold Wii U in January, February, March, and April!"

"But Wii U will win in August onwards thanks to Hyrule Warriors, Bayonetta 2, and Smash Bros.! So Wii U will outsell Xbox One in more months!!!!

"Wii U haz no gaemz!"

"Xbox One haz no gaemz!"

"FUCK YOU!"

"NO, FUCK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"


This is funny, yet so so true

-Mario kart 8
- Wii u is available in more countries (I believe)
- lower price. Wii u is cheap
The Xbox one has been outselling the Wii u this year. The Wii u did better other times but the Wii u should have insane sales since its cheaper.


Mario Kart came out 2 months ago.

Wii U sells for 300 dollars. That's not as cheap as you are making it seem.

Low price never means something should have high sales. Then you would see everyone at the dollar store.



I bet the Wii U would sell more than 15M LTD by the end of 2015. He bet it would sell less. I lost.

Price always has a difference. If Wii U was $200, I'd probably be doing PS4 level. If it was $400, Xbox One would look like a success compared to it.

I just hate when price is used to help determine who is currently leading. People all the time say that the ____ has to outsell the ____ by a 3:2 ratio because one costs 300 dollars and the other costs 200 dollars. That's all I'm getting at.

Yeah it's shocking. MK8 should've never given it that big of a pretty robust boost. Now we won't hear the end of it -.-

On the up side it opens up a new front in the console war.



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

Mario Kart 8 boost is still going on, it'll fade eventually. Also, Xbox One is available in less countries right now, that'll change come September.


By the time the MK8 hype fades Bayo 2 and Hyrule Warriors will be out.



It's the battle of the Silver Medal this gen. It's pretty fun to watch, actually.
