I could say that about xbox one everywhere but US and UK

No you couldn't because it's been out 9 months not 21.

Regardless, US + UK are far more bigger than Japan where WiiU has the advantage. Europe is a stalemate and will go in XB1's favour.

because of the uk only?

I'm thinking of france and germany where wii u is doing better.

No, even taking out the UK, both consoles are so low that the gap is minute. I say XB1 because MS is the most pro active and will be on the shelf longer.

I mean, 360 even came close to Wii in Europe, the Wii!!

actually it might help wii u go look at the lastest japanese sales :P


COMG numbers are less than 50 I believe. Not a flop but nothing spectacular. 

its at 50 so that still leaves it up for a possible 100k first week which isnt bad for a zelda game :P

Mario Kart launched at 300k and the WiiU did 19k. Even if the game is a success that doesn't mean it will have a noticeable impact on hardware. 



Sigs are dumb. And so are you!

I think I can counter that

Jajajaja, the 360 didnt even come close to the wii in EU. Im not sure on this but 360 did like 35m EU and japan while the wii did like 60m. Dont know how they where split between EU and japan but just looking at that total the 360 dint even come close.



It takes genuine talent to see greatness in yourself despite your absence of genuine talent.

Hyrule Warriors is on the list .. can you not read? Amibos is hardware (does it have a release date)? And I've not seen any update on Toad release date other than it's 2015 in Europe (WW?)

Multiplats will push XB1's, they will just push more PS4's. We know that by how well they've already sold.

You convinientely left out hyrule warriors, bayonetta 2 and fatal frame in japan (aug 14, sep 19 and sep 27, respectively). bayo 2 on west is october and smash + captain toad is holiday 2014.

Ok so you're really not reading the list properly, Hyrule Warriors is there and has been since the start. Bayo 2 and Smash are at the bottom as they don't have release dates. You must not have actualy read any of it.

Very wrong figures.

360 shipped around (42m US, 6m Rest of Americas, 1.5m Japan, 34m+ Europe/Other) = 84m.

Wii 42m US, 6m rest of Americas, 13m Japan, 39m+ Europe/Other = 101m
