Wow. The Wii U is holding its own over there!

Console	Total Sales (Top 10 Software)
PlayStation 3	533875
Nintendo 3DS	522796
PlayStation 4	469946
Xbox 360	267700
Xbox One	223414
Wii U	204273
PC	184869
PlayStation Vita	63694

I wouldn't really say Wii U is holding it's own. It's behind the Xbox One, which people are (rightfully) saying is getting massacred in Europe (outside of the UK).

But there are several Wii U games in the top charts. Accumulating them all and saying, "Nope. Wii U is not" is very one-sided, don't you think?

One WiiU game in the top 10? One WiiU game in the top 20? In a combined list, the Wii U has a total of 3 games in the Top 50.

It's performing quite poorly.

And more significantly, the overall sales are more important. These software sales show there is little interest in the Wii U library (Top 2 PS4 games outsell Wii U top 10, likewise, the 10th placed PS4 game outsells the Wii U's 4th, and PS4 11th, 12th etc probably outsell Wii U 4th also), and with little library demand, hardware sales will not recover.
