It is down 1k from last week. So it's steadily on its way to 30k.

We'll see if you are actually going to be right with that one!

MK8 has done its job and quite well at that considering the competition, it doubled the weekly baseline and is a game that sells for years, even though 60k is not great it's not bad either as it's respectable, if Smash adds around 20k to that baseline that would be around 80k which would be a healthy baseline.



Mario Kart 8's quite the talk of the town.

It's shifting a lot of systems.

Hopefully it'll rub off on other good titles for the system. If not, then it really only proves that all those other games just don't hold the same general appeal.

Nintendo's certainly not done a very good job with marketing Sports Club and Wii Fit U, but I'll be surprised if they're not preparing a big marketing push for both come Christmas.

Yes its doing its job. The people that said it would fall back to 30k pissed me off. I don't think Wii U will have a 30k baseline for 2 years.. maybe possibly 3 years. I thought it would be 65k-70k baseline but hey its doing better than most people expected and its ahead of XB1

A certain user here said that Mario Kart 8 won't do jack shit and also Nintendo fans would shut up when the Wii U falls back to 30k baseline. I won't name the user (in fear of getting banned), in short Mario Kart 8 has done wonders and Nintendo fans have gotten louder.

So yes, Mario Kart 8 has done its job!


We wants names :P

I was expecting way less so I guess it's doing its job.

Guess what, vivster! The WiiU never really went below 60k! The week below 60k  has adjusted!

It is down 1k from last week. So it's steadily on its way to 30k.


Even if it does drop 1k a week it will be at 54k by the time Hyrule Warriors comes out so it probably won't be below 50k until well after holidays
