Forums - Sales Discussion - Wii U at Best Buy - not looking great

I was at my local Best Buy looking for a PSTV, and noticed the state of the Wii U section:

I thought it really doesn't look positioned as something that is growing, more like a product that's being discontinued.  They don't have many games, especially they have no MK8, SM3DW, Pikmin etc.  They just have a few cheaper games.

I hope they will get some nice bundles in for the holidays, plus ofcourse stock up on Smash, or this is going to be a disaster.

Because one store represents every store. My local best buy it's as stocked as the other systems. Try again and troll elsewhere

Doomed!!!!!!!!! Kinda odd that they don't have the bigger games.



Never seen any that bad, but the Fry's and Best Buys in my area tend to have only one shelf devoted to the system. It's not a healthy situation by any stretch.

don't worry, mines similar too.

Is 6 out of 10 stores near me showing no MK8 in store trolling, or is making unbacked claims about your local store better?

SM3DW & Pikmin 3 are worse.  The closest store that has SM3DW is 30 miles away, and the closest with Pikmin 3 is 45 miles away, and they have no option to ship to a closer store.
