XBOX ONE has outsold Wii U Worldwide

http://mynintendonews.com/2014/11/22/xbox-one-has-now-outsold-wii-u-worldwide/

It was bound to happen sooner or later and the signs were there, but the Xbox One has now outsold the Wii U worldwide. The Xbox One has reportedly sold 7.61 million units worldwide and the Wii U has sold 7.45 million units. The Xbox One launched in November 2013 while the Wii U launched back in November 2012. Interestingly the Xbox One has been outselling the PlayStation 4 in the UK during the past three weeks

If Wii U is really worth, then why people say Xbox One = PS4 and yet both System outselling Wii U? Clearly people like Xbox One and PS4 games more. It at least has games. Wii U only has Nintendo exclusives but nothing else.

all the nintendo fans are too busy playing games to give a shit

Wii U has a better selection of games....guess there's no accounting for taste.

Only on System Wars are sales more important than games.

Just got a Wii U to compliment my PS4, so I'm good

You have to make them duel! There can only be one!

This was gonna happen anyway.

As it should be.

Most good exclusives = lowest sales.

Second most good exclusives = second lowest sales.

No good exclusives = most sales.

Console gaming seems to be doing great nowadays.

@lostrib: Lol no, I use the Wii U to complement the PS4 by using the PS4 as a way to raise the Wii U a bit higher on my tv stand. It's an excellent prop.

Doesn't make me any less excited to get one.

VG Chartz? lol. But still, if it hasn't yet, it will sooner or latter.

The same site that claims Washy Dogs sold 6.8 million, despite Ubisoft claming 9M. Isn't VGChartz banned anyway?

No no, it's not like that. If your console sells more than the other console, it can boost the level of enjoyment you get out of your games.

I think something similar happens when the company who makes the console is in better financial shape than the other companies.

Welcome to two weeks ago, enjoy your stay.

That same source say the PS4 is doubling the xbox one..

That's sad, the WiiU is a good console, hopefully with the current lineup and upcoming releases the WiiU will ses better sales, a price cut would be nice too.

lol, sure.

Is this still using VGcharts as a source? Well in any case it was bound to happen.

The power of Multiplats.

So let me get this straight

-Least expensive with strongest library= lowest sales

-middle ground price with middle ground library= second place sales

-highest price point with weakest library= phenomenal sales

Having said that, I intend to look for a good Black Friday sale to get myself a PS4...

The price drop on Xbox One is very inviting for those that want to get in on the new gen for the great multiplats that will come in the future so it does make sense in the end. A purchase of either of the twins is an investment in the future at this point.

@charizard1605 wow very sad day for sheeps. i did tell u x1 will outsell it by dec

If I were a sheep right now, I'd go hide in my pen #bahhhhh

Wasn't the other thread that used VGchartz locked? It did say the PS4 is outselling the Xbone 2:1, which is probably true. It would seem that gamers care the most about the future rather than current lineup.

Damn, I thought Xbone passed up the WiiU months ago lol

People just taking safe bets I suppose.

Sure, the WiiU is the most attractive console at the moment. But if I didn't have a PC and if I could only choose one console to own for the rest of the gen, the WiiU wouldn't even be a thought. I might consider the Xbone, but I'd really just go straight for the PS4.

This is just how most console gamers are. They buy one box and ride it out for the gen. In that sense, the WiiU would be a horrid choice.

Come on, WiiU, get back on that horse and ride.

I think I'd care more about this if I wasn't too busy enjoying awesome games on my console. Awesome games which released complete, polished, no glitches and bugs, no held back content, and with a perfectly functioning online mode at launch.

Which is far more than the PlayStation and Xbox guys can say. But hey, let them play sales and resolution and all that shit. Me, I'll play games.

Holy shit, dat damage control!

In all honesty, the XBone is a system selling on hype alone. It's a man in the middle between being the best machine and being the machine with the most exclusives. People buy Xbox because they simply don't know any better.

How many price cuts and re-bundling has the XBone had to get to this point, anyways? It will either run out of gas or MS is truly willing to go into first Xbox like losses to keep the brand alive. Neither of which are really healthy for gaming in general.

Zing!

dis gon b gud

Super smash bros WiiU just came out. So yeah, pretty sure

the fight for 2nd place just started on consoles, we know who the winner is

Second place? Don't you mean 3rd place? You know, PC>>>>>Wiiu>>PS4/X1

consoles....

No.

Library? That's a very specific word and unfortunately your comparison isn't accurate. Actually, the PS4 has a stronger library than the Xbone (188 games vs. 124 games)

Retail/Physical the PS4 has 84 titles to 79 Xbone games. PS4 library leads.

Digital the PS4 has a whopping 144 titles to Xbone's 45 titles. PS4 library leads.

This link breaks it down:

Just because an opposing fanbase screams "no games!" over and over does not mean what they are claiming is true. I own both and I'm not thrilled with either the PS4 or Xbone, BUT there is a pretty significant difference in libraries.

If you posted something about exclusives, I would agree the Xbone has a slight lead in exclusives as I own the Xbone, BUT it's a very small lead. It's certainly not worth dancing over as both machines have a lot of work to do in the exclusives dept as they are very weak. Comparing both is like watching two snails race and arguing which one is faster. 2015 should be a decisive year for both. However, you didn't say exclusives, you specifically called to the libraries.

I would agree the Wii U has had a much better year, but not as good a year that I would declare 2014 as a good year. It was just a decent year for my Wii U and sadly that makes it a great year by comparison to the sad, sad PS4/Xbone.

we talking console sales here

we cannot measure pc sales, unless you can tell me how many pc are sold last month

Eh....most games are multi plats now....so it's not much of an issue. However, you buy the console that has the first party games you like better. Right now neither PS4 or X1 has much. Wii U sells to Nintendo fans. Honestly it should always be a companion console to whichever other system you have....

47,000,148 were sold last month.

All of them were gaming PCs

over a lifespan of ?

lol described the PS4 in a nut shell, selling with nothing to play but multiplats and indie garbage, it's so bad that the Sony tards end up hiding behind the WIi U because they know their system was a disaster in 2014 with flop after flop.

Don't believe the hype, best way to describe the PS4

Microsoft should take those losses on selling the Xbox One, they can afford it and they'd do the world a favor if they'd euthanize Sony and all of it's idiot fanboys.

13

one month

13 years

damn

hmm 150.000.000 ps2 + 13.000.000 = a whopping 163.000.000 consoles

Not 13 years.

Just 13.

The Wii U's future is already mapped out by nintendo regardless of how many it or its competitors sell.

They will release their in development first party games. They will do more collaborations with third parties, and push the amiibo line of toys and games for AT LEAST 2 more years.

So...who should really care about this again?

LOL who cares, Nintendo is destroying everything with it's awesome games

PlayStation and Xbox fans. They seem to be great at playing numbers, you see- sales, resolution, Amazon rankings, profits, revenues, NPD, you name it. I gather that this is a natural side effect of them not having any, you know, actual good games to play.

Playstation fans are damaging controlling right now, the Hypestation is losing it's sales advantage and now won't have anything over the Xbox One except for a resolution advantage. Time is coming where most people are going to jump off the Sony sinking ship when they realize Sony can't even afford to keep the lights and the heat on and certainly have nothing worth playing on that piece of shit.,

PS4, don't believe the hype,

...you're absolutely right!
