Disastrous Wii U sales. Thankfully this gen is ending for Nintendo. Next year both devices will be repleaced by the NX.
Proud to be the first cool Nintendo fan ever
Number ONE Zelda fan in the Universe
Prediction: No Zelda HD for Wii U, quietly moved to the succesor
Predictions for Nintendo NX and Mobile
PSV + Wii U is already above 20M! Together, nothing can stop them!!!

To be fair, its now had twice as long on the market (without being obsolete).
RIP Dad 25/11/51 - 13/12/13. You will be missed but never forgotten.
Well that is no shocker, but below or above 10 million at this stage is just as bad and confirms its a dead horse.

Dreamcast had 28 months from launch to discontinuation, Wii U's been out for less than 31 months. It'll be a long time until it's had "twice as long".
If by "obsolete" you mean more powerful consoles releasing, then Dreamcast actually had more time on the market before being rendered obsolete.

It's all the polar bear's fault. :P
Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won

Hasn't it already? ^^ At least going by official Nintendo and SEGA numbers, the WiiU passed the dreamcast a few months ago.

It really is. The OP of this thread has said that many Nintendo fans had boldly proclaimed that the Wii U would make it. If you look at the thread he is refering to, you will see that there is hardly anyone who made such a claim. But you did. You did all of us in. All because you are absurdly fat, so you count for many, not just one. |
That's an amazing theory... :p this fat bear is the one to blame. Next time I'll be more careful with my predictions cause apparently they can represent all Nintendo fans because of their "mass". :p

It released in most territories between September and October 1999. Was officially announced as being discontinued in February 2001. Its most successful region was the US where it had 17 months.
Though I've since found out the atomiswave was pretty much a Dreamcast so it actually had over 10 years if you count the arcade market (where apparently all the unsold DC hardware pretty much went).

I wonder if there is any way we could adjust Dreamcast sales for market inflation. Sure Wii-U might have passed Dreamcast in absolute numbers but the gaming market has become somewhat bigger. 10m in system sales isn't what it used to be, just like a game selling 1m isn't what it used to be.
