Also needing to be mentioned is that yes, the XBox One sold 450k last Black Friday, but it also only just released just 1 week prior, so it was still basically within it's initial launch week rush. It launched Nov. 22nd. Black Friday was on the 29th.

And the 360 did 600k and the PS3 450K...

Do you think the 9 and 8 years old consoles still have any apeal this year?

Also the XOne is $100 cheaper on most cases and is in more 20% WW markets plus China this year.

I give you that with SSB and Amiibio the WiiU could do a little better this year, but can´t do anything near what PS4 and XOne will pull with the big multplat.

Edit - for your Edit, I was always talking about Global numbers http://www.vgchartz.com/weekly/41609/Global/

360 was also $99 on Black Friday last year, don't forget that. They also had Kinect bundles with 2 games or 4GB consoles with 4 games for under $200.

Also with the big numbers Smash is already doing with just the 3DS I wonder what it might do for the WiiU, unless it ends up actually hurting it's sales.

Now you might end up being right about what each sells. Only a couple months to go until we find out.

As for the edit and the answer, that makes sense. When I see "Black Friday" I think of US.

iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

November 2014 or 2015?

If wii U was banned from
from sale tomorrow, X1 still wouldn't overtake it before December this year.

There is a gap of 1,651,742 according to VGC as of 09/27/14. There are 9 weeks until the end of November. The Xbox One would have to outsell the WiiU by 183,527 consoles EACH WEEK to pass it by the end of November.

To give you an idea of what a daunting task that is, the Xbox One hasn't even sold 183,527 consoles in a week this year. Not even Destiny week. Now it needs to outsell the WiiU by that much every week for the next 9 weeks? I don't even need to talk about what's coming out for the WiiU or how it will sell.

Not a snowballs chance in hell.

GTFO of here with your brilliant logic and facts. This is a toastboy thread. Whats wrong with you?

Nope, I stand by it. If you throw enough actual information into a thread like this it either changes into a real discussion or dies. Notice how nobody has responded to this thread hours? We've slain the beast.

Bet with Adamblaziken:

I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.
