It will go back down, but it will get a boost from Destiny and free game week in the US. PS4 may do unbelievable number though next week so... it will probably look incredibly skewed.

Launched in other country's and had a Maden bundle in the US and still could't beat PS4. First weeks launch sales are usually a console highest single week sales so those numbers will go down.

you should of seen the numbers before someone posted these on n4g ,they where adjusted after vg chartz forums blew up , they had x1 with 138,000 now its at 124,000 Europe's numbers are up by 300% what's weird is theres now x1 games in the top 20 there . so what did they buy x1 and no games . with all the numbers in it had ps4 higher but they had x1 with higher totals. here is what they had 1st http://gamrconnect.vgchartz...
omg also they even put x1 at 5.3 and fixed that it weird that x1 selling less than 100,000 hits 300,000 in just 3 weeks but ps4 that hits 150,000 a week only hit 300,000 in 3 weeks wtf. totals are a cluster f@#$ it should be at least 450,000 in 3 weeks not 300,000

Wii U is a last-gen console, people are mainly focused on the next-gen consoles at this point (PS4/XB1).

May I direct your attention to software sales Globally To Date for Wii U and XB1? People may want to claim the Wii U had a one year head start on other consoles but I was there at launch. There was barely enough games to fill a shoe box for my Wii U for almost a year.

However the Wii U has been able to sell more than 10 million pieces of software more than the XB1 amd more than PS4. That would point to people buying more games for their Wii Us than other consoles regardles of its sales numbers. The bulk of the Wii Us sales have come from the past year not its first year. It only did about 3 million its first year and it hasnt even finished with its second year yet.

Its sales are fine for right now, I remember a time when it was doing 10k and 15k globally. So the fact it is moving towards 8 mil possibly by the end of the year without a new Legit LOZ, Star Fox, or Metroid is incredible. It is especially incredible considering its lack of third party support. It is making money and selling a lot more games than XB1. Believe me it is in no trouble at all.

I have said it before Nintendo doesnt compete with anyone because their games are different. PS4 and XB1 compete with themselves and Nintendo. Right now Sony isnt competing with anyone due to their huge success. XB1 is having to compete with Wii U and PS4 and it is loosing miserably.

The software sales speak volumes as to where people are playing their games the most. With about 2 mil consoles less than Wii U that means that there is almost five more games purchased per 1 of those consoles. All of this success without Hyrule warriors globally released, Smash U, Bayonetta 2, the holidays, then Captain Toad, Splatoon, Yoshis wooly world, new Kirby, x chronicles, Zelda U, new Metroid, and new Star Fox.

I feel there is no further proof needed to show that the Wii U will be just fine for this generation and will be respected as the Game Cube eventually was. It will not be a smash hit like the Wii, but it will not be a failure like the XB1 is seeming to be currently.

Yup, it's pretty dang typical of Xbox Fanboys to retract on every silly statement they've made regarding Xbox One 29 Countries, and DX12 destroying PS4.

Retraction is all MS have done since announcing/launching Xbox One, so I'm totally not surprised their Fan-boys are doing it too...

It's part of their DNA...
