Wouldn't it make more sense that the sales increase came from the price slashing retailers did?

It's good something moved, but considering the console costs 199 Euro now and it got a new game with yet another one coming next week, this result is going to be awful anyway. Doubling the sales in a couple of countries really isn't impressive. When Vita got it's cut (which was actually smaller than what Wii U experiences now), the sales grew over 600% without a single new game released and they grew even more the second week, when Sony released a game. I don't think anything can save the Wii U at least until Christmas or Q1 2014 and the real big games.

I have been thinking about it recently and I think that I will buy a Wii U once it gets a new Zelda (not just the remake), Metroid Prime, X and Bayo 2 and I'll find a SKU with at least 32 GB for 199 or cheaper, even if that means I'm going to buy it before I get a PS4 - even though I was planning to buy Wii U as the second console.



Wii U is a GCN 2 - I called it months before the release!

My Vita to-buy list: The Walking Dead, Persona 4 Golden, Need for Speed: Most Wanted, TearAway, Ys: Memories of Celceta, Muramasa: The Demon Blade, History: Legends of War, FIFA 13, Final Fantasy HD X, X-2, Worms Revolution Extreme, The Amazing Spiderman, Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate - too many no-gaemz :/

My consoles: PS2 Slim, PS3 Slim 320 GB, PSV 32 GB, Wii, DSi.

Naturally, sales are still nothing to write home about, but in any case it's a good development if even a small niche title, what Monster Hunter is in Europe, can make any kind of notable sales increase. Next week will be even better with LEGO I reckon. Bodes well for when the actual system sellers finally hit the system.

I'd like to know where you buy your hardware because in reality it's still in the 299-349 pricerange. Here and there some retailers slashed a couple Euro off but I haven't seen anything over 30.
