No whats sad is you acting like its already out in all regions and nobody bought it.

I certainly don't believe the shipments were only 30k, it makes no sense and there's no source.

just remember that GTA5 sales will be in the range of 10% the ps360 installed base. it's not like the gaming world stops to buy GTA5, the 90% who don't want it will just buy other games.

im not saying the target audience for W101 and GTA are the same. but when GTA releases all the media attention and hype will be drawn towards it and over shadowing the W101.everybody will be talking about GTA, the press, the websites the gamers, pretty much everybody. and for those looking to buy a new cosnole and then find out that GTA5 is not on the WiiU wont help either. people who might have considered buying a WiiU might put that idea on hold because they will be too busy with GTA5.  one of the games goals is to push hardware sales, and nintendo certainly needs it too specially at this stage of the consoles life, but putting it 2 days away from GTA5 pretty much kills that. also rayman, a game that has a very different target audience like W101 changed its release date, because GTA will just dominate the sales in that period

Damange control much? The OP made a prediction, and operating on that assumption I made a statement providing if it materializes. Chill the fuck out ....

Nintendo publish games to sell on the course of years not months. I somehow remember Goldeneye to flop hard the first month, just to end up selling 8 millions copies without even care not being the highest selling platform at that time (N64). It will probably sell much better on holidays. Take a look at Pikmin2 charting on Japan, for the solely reason of Pikmin 3 release. And that happened almost one month after Pikmin3 release.

well over 20 million of those people will. i know the games have different appeal but GTA is infact pop culture, it has mass appeal. the number of people who will prefer W101 over GTA are very very little, the number of people who will chose GTA are in the millions. there is no way around it, what ever company you love what ever game you prefer, the game releasing 2 days apart from GTA5 is infact stupid and will hurt sales tremendously.

My point is, most gamers have a limited budget. When two games come out close together, most will choose one of them.

I would love nothing more than for W101 to be a smash hit. Hell, I'd love to see it outsell GTA5, as I personally think GTA is garbage. But that's kinda like wanting to see Bayonetta 2 outsell COD, it's just not gonna happen.

Wow, then it would be a rare Collectors Item?  And anyone who buys it now, will be able to see it for 101 million dollars in a few years?

I still cannot believe they're releasing W101 two days before GTA5, what the hell are they thinking? Why not release it simultaneously with Europe, as the English version is clearly finished?
