2 consoles that have been out for 8 years and sales that are dwindling, they should not hold as a comparison for what good WiiU sales are.

These seem great because of how bad WiiU was doing before, but if you put them into context, they're not!

When PS3 got its first big game or price cut it got a huge frigging boost. When 360 slim released, 5 years after the 360 launched I might add, sales topped 100,000 for the week. These are huge boosts. I don't see how 5 - 9k is fantastic news.

It's a struggling console in a non-Nintendo region making a sales increase on an HD-remake of a GC game. I think 5-9k is reasonable for now.

Wait until 3D World and all come out, this is a momentum game for Nintendo atm. The upsing is starting.

For everything else I agree with you, but this is a specific case for Nintendo where this little victory is the beginning to the war being won on the long term.
