Did Mario Party 10 help Wii U sales?

Yes, over 100k Wii U's FW 5 11.36%
 
Meh, a subtle boost but nothing too strong 23 52.27%
 
Nope, numbers are still 45-50k 16 36.36%
 
Total:44

I know we haven't seen any numbers for over a month, but does anyone think Mario Party 10 built up any steam? I remember news of Smash and Mario Kart helping the Wii U were announced before numbers came up on vgchartz, but do you guys think Mario party helped?

Obviously it wouldn't have the kind of boost Smash and MK gave it, but I think it gave it a nice little boost. 90k launch week is my guess



MP10 is a game with the legs.
seem that will have a strong launch according to Amazon in the US and EU, but i think that will help the Wii U sales in a long term.
For example... +15% increase the launch week, and a +5% increase the basis during the summer.

Any way, i'm go with Wii U at +55,000 the week of MP10 released. And NOT ACCORDING TO VGCHARTZ.



Probably did, but not like the major exclusives. 50 - 60k would be my guess.



I don't see why it would. It sells to people who own a Wii U already.



If you're interested in Nintendo content and understand german, maybe you want to take a look at my youtube channel! :)

it probably gave the Wii U a 60k week and that's about it. between 50k-60k that week.

It did but then everone who bought a WiiU returned it after Zelda was delayed.



Perhaps a small boost, but there wasn't any bundle and it isn't exactly their biggest game, so i doubt it will be substantial.

That joke doesn't even make any sense, because why would someone return a Wii U just because a game is delayed? :P
