I really want 2015>2013... Only 105k units behind.... that's not too much right? It does have a better release schedule this time around. July- Yoshi, August - devil's third, - September Mario maker.

What was released in late 2013 again? Wii Party U, WWHD, Game & Wario, Mario & Sonic 2014 and Super Mario 3D World, right?

That's not a hard lineup to beat. With a pricecut, it would be doable, but without one Nintendo needs another big system seller for Japan (outside SMTxFE).

True but that's not really the issue. 2014 was beating 2013 weekly until Wii Party U week... that bundle was insane. They need a good bundle going in to the holiday season along with a price drop to replicate / beat that effect. After Pikmin 3 week, 2013 starts to fall hard. If 2015 can remain above 10k for a while ir can easily catch up.

No. WU was too strong in the holidays 2013...why? I dunno. Is just happen.

Its not impossible though. I do think 2015 will pass 2013 by October, and I do think it can have a better holiday season. A price drop can easily replicated the Wii Party U bundle effect. A Limited edition Mario 3oth anniversary console or nes styled Wii U can also happen (I doubt it though). Its possible, but it depends entirely on nintendo pulling out a couple more bundles.

The YoY decrease is real

Oh, you think so?



Yikes, those sales numbers are bad, but at least the Wii U is up compared to last year.

Go go Wii U.



Now let's see if Splatoon can keep these numbers up until Yoshi get unravelled in July

Something slated to release in August or September for the Wii U in Japan?
