How many Wii U's did they forecast this year? 9m?

they forcasted 9 million for the fiscal year. so from start of april this year to end of march next year. anyways, they wont achieve half of those sales. i think they were at .5 million for the first two quarters of the fiscal year.

I so want them to keep the forecast even though they're basically saying they expect to sell 6m in Q1

I wanna see if the investors actually pipe up and say something, if they don't we'll know just how stupid and braindead they really are.

Kinda funny now that we found out it was undertracked in US and France

Indeed, this week is overtracked too for sure. US at 65k suggests (with holiday weekly gains) the US will do 350k~?! I don't think so!!

This bit you in the *** lol! Thank goodness you didn't take any bets huh? :p

I don't understand, if you're going to adjust numbers you do it to make them more accurate, not less.

WiiU is at 1.6m end of November, with 65k this week (Seems too much based on average US weekly).

It's still overtracked in France and the UK as well.

Undertracked. By 50k.

EDIT: didn't realise this was an old thread lol.

Predictions for LT console sales:

PS4: 120M

XB1: 70M

WiiU: 14M

3DS: 60M

Vita: 13M
