Report: Wii U Outsold Xbox One Last Week

4.6
The alleged sales numbers for the week of December 21 have been revealed by VGChartz, and, according to the data, the Wii U outsold Microsoft’s Xbox One console globally last week.

As you can see in the chart below, the Wii U sold 319,860 units world-wide last week while the Xbox One sold only 307,366. Of course, neither systems come close to the numbers of the 3DS which sold 1,078,568 units last week to remain the top selling console in the World.

The news of the Wii U outselling the Xbox One is surprising due to the fact that Microsoft’s console is the newer of the two which has more “hype” at this time of the year. The fact that the Wii U sales are on the upswing can only be good news for a console, and a company, with high hopes for 2014.

Pens The xbox one definetly needs more games!


Yeah I would definitely agree with you on that. I'm getting bored of just playing NBA 2k14 and BF4.


That is why I have been playing my 360 a lot recently.

Thing is though if you look at the sales in n.america and Europe the xbox one beats the wii-u it is only because it is yet to be released in japan that the wii-u out sells it.

Hoen Finally!
The Wii U is cheaper, has free online, has a lot of 3rd party developers, yet no one buys it! It's only because the community isn't as big, but that can change.


I know the Wii U is actually a good console.


My sister has one, kinda miss playing Mario Party and Zelda xD

Glad to see Wii U picking up some steam during the Holiday. If VGChartz is right its hovering at about 3/4 of a million for december thus far. Itll be interesting to see sales for W/E 12/28.

Nintendo needs to keep pushing.
