Check here for US software for now:

Overall it's a bad week for everyone. Wii U dropping to pre MK8 numbers fast, it was obvious that some people were just way too premature with their judgement of the MK8 effect on consoles, but hey some never learn.

I'm happy for the X1 but the Wii U is slowly inflating T^T



Again, Wii U needs another $50 price cut. Moreover, it needs a $250 Mario Kart 8 bundle.

MK8 can only sell the unappealing (to the masses) Wii U for so long on it's own. It needs to be guided by a price cut to be more effective..and most Wii U's should bundle MK8.

Nintendo has to accept they're gonna have to suffer to increase the Wii U's install base. The sooner they accept that, the faster the healing can begin.



We all know how slow this time is for software. Expect those hardware numbers to be like that for a bit. Xbox outsold PS4 again in NA?! Wow...not surprised due to the price drop. NPD is going to be GOOOOOOD!!!

Wii U 50k baseline?


It just dropped 15,000 since last week at least wait for 3 weeks of +/- of less than 5% before calling a baseline.



Around the Network

PS3 still owns Europe compared to Wii U and Xbox One



I don't know but it seems that ioi is just guessing PS4/Xone numbers.Xbone first week price cut was bad and the ps4 dropped hard and now this.

June NPD will be interesting anyway.

This says something about the state of the gaming industry,3DS,PS4 may have a victory in a sense but low numbers for all.


Yeah, it says this is the slow summer season of two first-year launch consoles. First summer sales for PS360 were far worse.

Honestly, people. What the hell? They're doing fine.

Why are people saying that these numbers are bad? You guys really have short memories.

I think it's because we were teased with record breaking numbers earlier.

So most people expected the trend to continue.

But both PS4/X1 HAVE broken records. For their first years, both have SHATTERED what their predecessors did.

There are twice as many combined at this point than PS360 comparatively.

Not sure what you're getting at.



June NPD will be a shitty party as the previous month... the guess roulete of ioi is pretty crazy.
