...at least from me. So, as some of you may have noticed, I was banned for the last couple days, aside from giving me the possibility of playing some games that I've never tried before (Super Metroid and Dragon Quest 7 if anyone cares) it also gave me the chance to view some of the discussion on here from the sidelines.

What I saw was the new weekly numbers coming and with those also came a Wii U adjustment, which corrected the sales in Germany. Now that in itself isn't bad of course, but I must say that I'm extremely surprised how I've seen nobody point out what to me seemed obvious: The Wii U is now overtracked more than ever.

Instead people go and bump old thread from (a) certain user(s), to say how wrong people were.

So I'll just show you, what I believe to be giant red flags that I thought at least someone would have pointed out by now.

Nintendo, bless em for that, is fortunately a lot clearer with their shipment numbers than the other 2, going so far as to even split them up in the regions the Americas, Other and Japan, now the first 2 are kinda useless to us, but we can get a lot out of the third number, so here goes.

First let me start with the end of June 2013

Looks decent, doesn't it? Now for June 2014

Or in other words: 75% of WW Wii U stock was supposedly located in Japan according to Vgchartz numbers right now and the rest of the world was basically almost sold out.

Yea, wiiU is definetely overtracked by around 250-300k. I'd say around 150k in the Americas and around 100-150k in Europe and "others".

npd has it around 100k overtracked and gfk has main european countries about right(germany was undertracked)

I really dont think ww would be over 200k and more on the lines of 100k so at most I say 200k overtracked

Yeah I thought the same thing when I saw the bump for Wii U. Only 20k units in stores outside Japan is unrealistic. Something doesn't line up, and Wii U likely hasn't quite crossed 7M yet.

I guess we'll get to celebrate Wii U crossing 7M twice.

Pretty much.

"but I must say that I'm extremely surprised how I've seen nobody point out what to me seemed obvious: The Wii U is now overtracked more than ever."

I actually pointed it out. Nobody cared and/or they disagreed...

20k on shelves in the world minus Japan = basically almost sold, is putting it lightly
