We're evidently not discussing how incredibly poorly the X1 is doing in Europe and how well Wii U has recovered there.

Though to be perfectly honest, both are doing equally well there. It's just we tend to hold a higher standard for X1 success and a lower one for Wii U.

They aren't doing equally in Europe, which is why X1 is going to take Europe from Wii U.

You know, I just realized that most Microsoft users have private accounts. What, they don't want to be seen posting?


It most likely is because when they say something, it gets quoted in another thread and used for them to eat crow. When you keep everything in the empire thread and make your account private, it's not as easy to report the quote.

As I suspected, both the XBone and Wii U are selling like crap.

May I ask where these numbers magically came from? I've been searching everywhere for NPD hardware numbers for August and they don't seem to be posted anywhere yet. How did you get your hands on them?

Nope equally well and that's taking into consideration X1 being undertracked, Wii U overtracked by VGC for the region. 

Just because X1 is doing great in US doesn't mean its doing good elsewhere.



I predict NX launches in 2017 - not 2016

Quite a bit of assuming. Especially on a market where the X1 hasnt made an impact.

Really don't see how this changes anything tbh, if the U has been selling 60k a week then that would still be more then the X1 even with the 170k as in EU X1 has fallen to numbers like 10k where as EU numbers for the U have been at 20-25k for a while now. Don't know how you worked out your original post but 60k in a month is about 20k a week in the US so even if we calculated at estimate numbers the U is still pushing 50k so I don't know where you got 30k from.

I bet a fair chunk of that 170k was the madden bundle spike as well, after the destiny launch it remains to be seen what the baseline for the X1 is as it could just drop back down.


You might want to re read the OP and then try again.

OT

The WiiU will finish a distant, very distant, 3rd.

You might want to read the OP again, but this time with out the biase glasses and see that seece based it on assuptions.
