PS4: 150K.
Xb1:70K
WiiU:60K

That's an interesting call. Both systems had something of a rough year, but their prospects are notably raised post-holiday.

The holiday price-cut gave Xbox a shot in the arm, and both Smash and Amiibos could edge the WiiU up. It really does have the potential to go either way, I think.

PS4: 140k
XBO: 80k (assuming a price of 400$)
WiiU: 40k

XBO wil probably have the biggest increase YoY.

wii u really depends on how smash will effect it(amiibo too)
ps4 will be 150k at least due to too many games
xbox one will drop to around 70k due to increase price
so
ps4: 150k+
xbox one: 70k
wii u: 35k-60k(depends really if smash/amiibo and the change in public perception will affect it
if it gets a pricecut I expect 80k(yes Im bold)

A good point but I think the Xbox has too much momentum going in the US to fall behind the Wii U anymore and its going to get some multiplatform third party games as well. Also, Wii U doesn't have any big potential seller until Mario Maker and Zelda U. 

Edit: Just saw that Xbox is going back to 399$. If its a temporary price raise for the first few months I think the rest of the year and holiday sales will make its baseline higher than Wii U.

I get MK8 and SSB released this year, but the momentum from those games and a new game almost every month from Nintendo (hopefully the barren months filled with Mighty NO. 9 and Project CARS) I think Wii U will peak next year, even if practically every Nintendo fan now owns one.

(Going by VGC) You mean during the time the Xbox One was waiting to get a price cut, or you know, 3 weeks back in in June? Besides that, the only other times the Wii U was above was 4 weeks from mid July to mid August, but that can be atributed to the under tracking of the One and or the over tracking of the Wii U, as the week that put the Xbox One over again, the Wii U got a random -20%, so ioi had to pick a place for Wii U sales to drop like a rock.

The other 45 (not counting any under/over tracking for the One/U) weeks, the One was selling more.

wii u can outsell xbox one due to more excluisves first half of 2015

gamestop puts games up for preorder that come out at most 7 months later

going by this we have

wii u first half: mario party 10, splatoon,  kirby rainbow curse, yoshi wholly world, devils third, and mario maker

vs

xbox one's first half of no main excluisves

PS4 - 150K
XB1 - 70K
WII U - 20K

The Xbox One should see the biggest increase out of the three ...

Exclusives won't matter, especially Wii U exclusives. MP 10, Splatoon, and Mario Maker are non factors and won't be pushing Wii U's numbers high. I don't see the Devils Third pushing HW, and Kirby/Yoshi will be selling to the consumer base the Wii U already has. So none of those will have any major sales impact.

Xbox One games for the first half of 2015 though? State of Decay, Screamride, Ori, and marketing deals for Evolve and Witcher 3. Then you have all the third party games that won't touch the Wii U, like Dragon Ball Xenoverse, Resident Evil, DMC, Final Fantasy Type 0, Battlefield, Dark Souls 2, Batman, and all the exclusive ID@Xbox games coming out.

Wii U will not outsell the One because of exclusives. Xbox One will outsell Wii U because of 3rd party support. And man, this is starting to remind me of early 2014 discussions.
