X1 will beat the Wii U here-and-there I'm sure. But overall, I still think the Wii U is going to win this Christmas. I see that many users have listed a ton of games coming out for X1, but many of those are going to PS4 as well. And buyers seem to be flocking to PS4 over X1, so I don't think a large list of 3rd party games is going to be a reason X1 is going to give a beatdown to Wii U. I still think Smash is going to go ape shit this Holiday, and people are going to be buying the Wii U/MK8 bundle + Smash Bros.

exactly.  WiiU>Xbone as far as second console value goes.  Majority of people who want big third party games are going PS4 (see basically every 3rd party spike and pre-orders for big third parties and advertising for everything 3rd party minus COD).

your denial is sweet.

you are even lying about mcc. it's doing the opposite of being pre ordered like crazy. will sell well for a collection, only a small fraction of a new title.


My denial? Those were facts.

MCC was #14 on Amazon's Best sellers list in June, #52 in July, and #32 in August. When I went to pre order the MCC at Gamestop a couple of weeks ago, they said a lot of people were pre ordering it. If you are basing MCC numbers off of VGC pre order data, they are very unreliable in the numbers. 

Selling well for a collection would be 1-2 million copies. The lowest selling main Halo was Halo: CEA at around 2 million. This will be the "main" Halo game till Halo 5, so expect it to sell around 4-5 million. If Halo CEA with just a single player in HD and a map pack for Reach was able to sell ~2 million, then 4 games will sell crazy.



Won bet with t3mporary_126 - I correctly predicted that the Wii U's LTD at the end of 2014 would be closer to 9 million than 10 million. http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=6673287
