Nintendo really needs to get 3DS momentum back up somehow. 100m seems extremely unlikely at this point, but it would be a shame if it couldn't even sell beyond Game Boy Advance numbers, 3DS is a much better system in comparison imo.

Wii U is Wii U though.. 500k is better than last year, but still not that great. Hopefully they kick off a big marketing campaign for the holidays so they can get a good boost.

From what i have read so far, Wii U numbers seem to be a bit off - although i don`t know if by using NPD for the quarter, how the numbers would end up beeing;
Comparing it to last year, it`s way, way better (it had sold 160K last year for the first quarter) and a good sign for Wii U for this fiscal year.

3DS is waaay off. It seems 2DS didn`t have the effect Nintendo desired - i think.
3DS sold a lot less than Q1 2013 because 3DS XL had just launch.

Vgchartz had MK8, by July 5th, at 2,018,823.
In the whole month of June, plus the 1-2 days of May, Nintendo sold 2.82mil.
Either MK8 sold more than vgchartz thinks, or the digital numbers are immense!

and that there should be alot of Mario Kart 8 copies on shelves, remember this number is shipped, not sold.

Aren`t these numbers always sold to consumers?

Still, retailers aren`t known for ordering a lot of Wii U stuff, be it games or consoles.
Even if the game had sold around 200k online, 500k had to be in stores. Seems a lot for Wii U.

They always are shipped, unless the company says otherwise.

Well 1.2 were already sold in the first weekend, so there is only 1.6 millions left to ship, to get to that number, and including the bundle, plus what already was left in stores from that first shipment, should easily let it be at 2.82 million shipments, by the end of June.

COMG guide to points: 1 point = Raging. 2 points = Beasting. 3 points = Tearing it up. 4 points = Berzerk. 7 points = Rampage. 12 points = Burst. 15 points = god mode. 20+ points = DIVIDING BY ZERO!!! 40+ points = Youkai (originally Pokemon).

-1 = Negabeasting. -5= NegaRampage. -10 = NegaBurst
