Forums - Sales Discussion - How will Wii U do this holiday?

After you seen the unveiling of SSB Wii U how well do you think Wii U will sell this holiday? 10M by the end of the year?

Smashtastic.

Alot of people will place "special orders" just to get that game!



Well...I think they will do well.

They should release a SSB Bundle.



I think it will do very well after that! Still not zomfgggg but it will still do super well! Gawddddd! I want Smash for wiiU already T_T

Well. Pretty well. Very well infact.

You want numbers? That could be tough.



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

I believe the Wii U will hit 9M or even 10M if it markets itself correctly. The competition really isn't over yet. If Nintendo can market the games well, whether that be in stores or on TV, the Wii U could do some massive numbers. Not as massive as say PS4 or Xbone but it will do some commendable damage. And that's the thing, they have to market these 4 games specifically:

Super Smash Bros. 4 Wii U (why not use the 4 for both titles, that would have been genius!!!)

Super Mario 3D World (Old game but it has so much more potential)

Mario Kart 8 (This will sell like hotcakes during the holidays)

Bayonetta 2 (For the more mature crowd, this game is getting scores that other games could only dream of)

Also, they have to market these 3DS games:

Pokemon: Alpha Sapphire, Omega Ruby

Smash Bros. 4 3DS

Nintendo can rake in the dough if they put in the work and creativity outside their own games.



10 to 11M.
im keeping my predictions.



10,500,000 is my bet.

LOL, as i write, you prediction coincide with my bet.



I'm just going to say twice as well as last year. It has twice as many good games this time and when two of them are the obvious choices for GOTY, Bayonetta 2 and Super Smash Bros Wii U. It's bound to have a good holiday season one way or another.
