Also there is COD and Destiny won't outsell that.

Yeah, it seems likely. With the MK8 momentum and Smash coming this holiday, I think theyll do well.

Yes, It's shipped.

And even if it was sold Wii U would just have to get 400k ahead of 2014. It's already 300k.

I think they will beat this forecast yes. Probably not by a huge amount, but yeah.

They should be able to ship a lot of Smash Bros. bundles this holiday (assuming that's coming), and even if they don't all sell, these are shipped numbers.

I'd say the Wii U can :)

So the holiday season doesn't exist anymore for you?

When was the last time Nintendo actually meet their forecast? 3.3 million probably.

Hopefully they'll exceed it by a bit, but seriously, if they can't at least achieve that 3.6m, then...

This time is more plausible. I mean, their last forecast said they would ship around 9 million Wii Us if I'm correct... it's just incredible that they believed that was possible, considering the low hype the console had, underwhelming launch titles for everybody and poor marketing.

This time however they got Mario Kart, Smash, titles already released, the Bayonetta promotion, Hyrule Warriors and the hype generated during the E3 of this year. Even if the PS4 and Xbox One are already around, I think they are going to achieve the quantity. It's not possible, it's more than obvious.

Smash will dominate this hollidays so no problem.
