Read this http://www.computerandvideogames.com/385270/wii-u-sales-hit-600k-in-december-in-the-us-analysts/ Nintendo is trying the limited console tactic that they tried with the Wii. The demand is lower than the Wii which is why the only time you couldnt find one at launch until mid december. By late december Wii U's could be found anywhere and werent sold out. Explain how six and seven year old consoles are outselling the Wii in fourth quarter. When the Wii was out demand was still sky high through the end of the year and beyond. This is showing that Nintendo is competing for the same crowd the 360 and PS3 are dominating right now. If the casual audience was truly being sought after we wouldn't even be talking about this right now because the Wii U would've gone through the same commercialization as the Wii. |
are you really surprised that systems with a larger library and cheaper price are selling better than a system with a smaller library and higher price?
isnt there a thread here that shows that is pretty normal? instead of comparing the weekly sales compare the launches. after a year on the market then compare weekly sales. same goes for when the other consoles launch.
