And you find it odd that i dont comment on the Vita when i have never commented on handhelds ever? I find it odd that you would expect me to just comment on the vita when i have never done it before.

No, it's more of how you're doing it.A) For example:

Person A: Yay, wiiU got a 100% boost in 2 days of a pricecut and got another 50% boost the week after. We finally have some hope.

You: Shut up, your an idiot for thinking these are good numbers. They're still lower then gamecube numbers.

I believe you are the one being overly sensitive because each and every time someone wants to be or is positive on the situation of the wiiU, you just always feel the need to reply to put them down. And it is odd how in every positive wiiU thread, your name always seem to pop up somewhere.

Lol, yeah if you completely put words in my mouth then yes, its crapping on the system.B) And hiw is posting on a forum that im a member of odd exactly? Yeesh, you guys are utterly ridiculous. What got you guys cranky this morning?

A) Notice the word I bolded/underlined so you could perhaps see it better. I will let you figure this one out for yourself.

B) Posting hatred comments only in positive wiiU thread is exactly what I said : odd. Why weren't you bashing people down when they said that the vita finally had hope when it got a pricecut in Japan saying: It's still behind the psp by A LOT. Oh I don't know, why weren't you there when the vita got no meaningful boost when it got a price cut in the US and Europe. My good sir. this is what I find odd. 

don't bother. He will never admitt it. No need to risk a ban. I remember a thread where he was constantly attacking the wii u for not including a hard drive, when someone brought the 12gb ps3 and the ps vita memory cards into the argument he left the thread quicker than you can say "WIi U"

Anyway on topic, i think the wii u will be steadily getting 40k for the rest of october with Wind Waker HD and sonic holding the ship until novembers onslaught begins

Wow Wii u 40k without addition of wwhd retail! Awesome sauce!


40K with full week of price drop in US and WWHD release in japan is awesome to you? Hint: its still under Gamecube

Price drop doesn't do much without software. As more games come out the price drop will actually mean something. As for now, I basically consider the price drop a non factor in hardware boosts because of lack of new software. Therefore, in my eyes, the hardware boost is almost solely due to Zelda launch and most of the zelda games will have sold in the next software chart (not this one). So for the hardware to get such a boost from the smaller part of zelda sales (compared to next week which should be much higher) is impressive to me.

You remember incorrectly.

these WWHD bundle and proce drop could have come some weeks before.
the 2nd week more strong than the first makes clear that GTAV first week hurt the wii U sales.
Also would help W101 and rayman legends a little.


The 2nd week was stronger because of the timing.  The WW bundle launched on a Friday, so its first "week" was only like two days.  The second week was a full week.

Looks like the price cut did nicely for the Wii U. Let's hope it's emulated in Europe.



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

PS3 is doing amazing in EU, even after the PS4 is announced and coming soon! brilliant!

360 is holding nicely but the X1 release seems to be having a effect (expected)

Vita, oh dear

3DS strong!

WiiU ah.. its going up though!

Wii/DS/PSP - kill it with fire!

Zeldas numbers wont be in this weeks though. They will be in next weeks. But hey, i comend you for actually replying in a civil matter and justifying your response. Thanks

And lol, you just burnt yourself right here. Hmmm, I don't know why you never comment on handhelds.... Oh! Right! Perhaps it is because Nintendo ALWAYS dominated handhelds that you never comment on them? You just confirmed my point, Thank you.

As for my example, the way I formulated it is the way that you made it sound when you were replying to people. Which, Im not the only one thinking that seeing the number of replies you got. Anyways, im done arguing with you. Hint: Try making it less obvious that you hate Nintendo so much by umm.. I don't know? Maybe being neutral or that's probably too hard to ask :).



Predictions for LT console sales:

PS4: 120M

XB1: 70M

WiiU: 14M

3DS: 60M

Vita: 13M

Well some of the Zeldas are in this week because of the hardware bundles. We won't get to see the software sales of Zelda, true, but because the download codes were sold with the systems then I'm sure Zelda had a slight impact on hardware sales this week. But I really think next week's chart will be the one where hardware is higher due to zelda retail launch.
