The first year of Xbox 1 was higher selling than the 360,stop with the revisionist history.

I've been saying this. Forget about 3rd party support. 1st party support wasLooking back at the Wii U's launch year compared to the Switch, I dont think people remember howthe Wii U's first year was in comparison. Here's how the first year went for the Wii U:
Nov/Dec: New Super Mario Bros U, Nintendoland, Zombi U and 28 half assed late ports and cash grabs from months/years ago.
Jan: Nothing
Feb :Nothing
March:Lego City Undercover and Need For Speed
After March it was NOTHING until August with Pikmin 3, which was suppose to be launch window and I think Wind Waker HD came out around this time.
September:The Wonderful 101 and Rayman Legends, two niche games which were both suppose to be launch window games and Rayman was suppose to be Wii U exclusive. Both sent to die being released days before GTA5.
October: Sonic Lost World *crickets*
November had the Wii U's biggest game in ELEVEN MONTHS with Super Mario 3D World and even then it sold less than it should have. Hell even Knack beat Mario in launch sales the UK. KNACK!
December I dont even fukking know cause we we're all still playing GTA5.
What's even worse is that even worse is that they're wasn't even any good downloadable indie titles sprinkled in.
The Switch is lucky to have the first year it has with seemingly one big game coming out every month for it with some good indie games sprinkled in. It's month 3 and I still haven't seen one in stores yet but I remember seeing stacks of Wii U's on it's 3rd month.
for the Wii U year one. By the time they got the games out, PS4 and XB1 were already launching, completely ruining their full year head start
you completely ignored everything I said to bring up a point, that I didn't say.
and what revisionist history?
The XB1 SHIPPED 10M by Nov 2014 according to MS.
X360 shipped 11 Million 360's according to MS
Market Prediction for the Sony PlayStation 3
Unless you have the exact WW sold to consumers number then Idk what you're talking about. Didn't the 360 have shortages?
My goodness. Ight fam you win. That's what you wanted, a internet victory. shyt ain't that serious breh wow you all ready to break something.

Are you high? You literally just claimed I'm boasting about useless facts because everybody knew Xbox 1 was a flop since day 0.
If XB1 and xb360 are neck and neck in sales the first year how the fukk did everybody know XB1 was a flop since day 0
You're not even making sense within 3 posts.
EDIT: Where's your link for when Microsoft announced 11 Million 360 sold. You didn't put a date or a link. It says 2007,no month,which is 2 years after launch.

I predicted this gen (ps4,XB1, Wii u) would do about 150 million,less than the 2 previous gens.
Looks like I'll be almost right on the money so I don't know why I'm being tagged about rumored switch projections.

That's all?
If Nintendo plays their cards right the Switch could outsell it by late 2018.

I'm indifferent to being able to buy a Switch at a store. I already have one. What I'm looking for are unique experiences on it which so far it's been lacking IMO.
If you skipped the Wii U it's likely been impressive to you but if you owned one the best titles on the Switch are still Wii U games mostly.
The Switch is selling well. Good for Nintendo but we've seen that before from them. The Wii flew off shelves. Did that translate into a high amount of must have titles from third parties? Truth is until year 2 and 3 we probably won't see how this plays out. Don't think for a minute if Nintendo alone does the heavy lifting you'll continue to get the level of output you got these first few months unless it's more ports. Nintendo has proven they can't carry a system alone without long droughts.
Is the XB1 not a flop compared to the 360 presently?Are you high? You literally just claimed I'm boasting about useless facts because everybody knew Xbox 1 was a flop since day 0.

You yourself loved to say "front loaded sales!" whenever someone mentioned it selling as fast as the 360 so what point are you making by arbitrarily closing the "flop" period between launch and the first year? It selling as fast as the 360 in the first year doesn't disprove that it's not a flop and it actually didn't.
As for the link
2006 console sales figures explored | TheINQUIRER
This article was from Jan 2007.
All I'm saying is it doesn't take a genius to predict that the end of the gen totals would be less than last gen when the two of the main sellers last gen released a mediocre product and that fact became clearer as time went on.
I'm done here no sense in continuing this.
I can't bring Zelda outside with me on the Wii U.
The whole point of the Switch can't be done with the Wii U so saying that it has Zelda and MK8(which doesn't even have some of the content that the Switch version has) isn't the same.

You do understand that the Wii controller system prevented some of those 3rd party games from being developed for it.
You can make a game wit a unique controller or make a game that will sell on both Xbox and ps, which one do you make?
Switch gives the dev an opportunity to make same game for 3 consoles

My initial argument was trying to figure out what this "fate" of all the past Nintendo consoles were. you can search up the the console sales list and a quick search will show you these companies aren't losing.
in total
Nintendo: 699.46 million
Sony: 474.69 million
MS: 118 million
then you have all the games and accessories
I only know Nintendo wants 10 mill by the end of the year, so I'll with that, and see if they manage to pull it off. The initial goal was 7 mill I believe.
I'm thinking of buying another switch dock for my other 4K TV that is in my bedroom. $89 though....I dunno
