Wow, those Wii U and 3DS numbers are excellent!I was expecting to see some good numbers, but not quite like this!Monster Hunter is still selling extremely well, the number didnt fall too much from last week, and another 3DS game that is holding well is Mario and Luigi, looks like it will compensate to have a somewhat normal FW with good legs.Splatoon and Mario Maker beasting in Japan as always

Japan is Nintendo's undefeated fortress

Nintendo always get bigger boosts the last few weeks of the year.  Sony will dominate big time from January on next year.  It's because their consoles appeal to kids and the parents are out buying them.  The first week after Xmas is usually a big decline for them and a big week for PlayStation because the teenagers are off spending their money. 

They'll be defeated next year by the ps4. It's inevitable.  they'll never be defeated in the handheld space though. 

great numbers
I am happy for Ninty... shame low sales for others WiiU softwares

But, PS4 should also get a holiday bost. Are the holidays really that much better for Nintendo? I'm kinda surprised.

New Bundles.

Its not easy to predict the console market in japan. Nothing is inevitable.

Good, SMM and Splatoon doing what Smash can't.

Crazy hardware numbers

Saying ps4 won't pass out the Wii U is like saying splatoon wouldn't hit a million this year a few weeks ago.  To me it's a sure thing.  

Not 100% guaranteed next year but one thing we know by the time summer rolls around the gap will be closed a lot.
