I simply averaged their global sales numbers but I've noticed I looked at the wrong year for the launch year but mind you global is higher in 2015 than 2013 which had some of the moments you mentioned.

It went down YoY in The Americas and Other.

You realise YoY WW sales are up for Wii U!?

I really wonder why the hell is Nintendo being so secretive about everything: NX, Zelda U, other WiiU games coming out this year.

I think there's something wrong. Or something bad happening. Nintendo was not like this in the past. Hell, I still remember the first Nintendo Direct in October 2011 (it was a live conference in Japan) or the January 2013 WiiU ND. It was giving us confidence in the product. The latest one was the E32014 ND, awesome and announcing future titles. But since E32015 something is getting worse.

Offcourse you think something bad is happening.

Fact is they done poor job with 3DS and espacily Wii U, they are restructuration, they now doing things different, they already said they want to talk about NX beacuse they fear competition could stole their idea.

On E32015 was obvious they realise Wii U wouldnt fly of and they completely move focus from 3DS/Wii U to NX.

It all make sense, they working on NX game from 2014. and they are fully focused from 2015, they didn't want to reveal to early NX because there is no point doing that, they probably gonna do something similar like Sony/MS done with PS4/X1 review and launch in same year.

DKCTF didn't move consoles

Predictions for Nintendo NX and Mobile

Again, by 30k in the same timeframe. Not by the double.

We talked about, how exactly one Mario Kart is lose!? Why on first place they want one Mario Kart or one Smash Bros instead two separate games!? To use that extra time that is needed for two different MK of Smash games instead just one for single platform, and make some other project. Why we need on first place two different MK games, we don't, just think about, on NX we could have one MK, one Smash, one Splatoon, one 2D Mario....and all that extra time that would be requred for making two of those games for two difrent platforms would be used for making other projects, so instead 4 those games for difrent platforms, we coud have 6-7 games for unifed platform for same developing time. Thats a whole point.

Again, there in no win-lose, just win-win.

On top of that, the mentality that handheld games are still drastically different from console games is just plain outdated. How much differently are MK7 and MK8? They are so similar that I never feel compelled to play MK7. The only reason I even own it is because it came with the 3DS I bought from my nephew. That's the cannabalization of games you spoke of before, bigtakilla. Same thing with 2D Mario, Monster Hunter, Smash, Animal Crossing, Mario Sports, and a countless number of indies. The only reason two different versions exist is because the handheld and home console architectures are so different that you have to make two different games. NX can and should be the mold breaker though.

There is still reason enough to have a Vita with the PS4. Software and price being the only drawback as the 3DS is still selling.

Yes, but then you only get one Mario Kart instead of two. This is my point. Win-lose.

Why do we needs so many Call Of Duties or Assassin's Creeds. The point is that two Mario Karts are more appealing to the masses. YOU don't see two Mario Karts as a win over a Mario Kart and a smaller title, but sales of the series would say something drastically different. 

Not getting how you could make 4 games for 2 platforms, with however many were made for a handheld would be faster to develop could equal 6 games they would have to get running on two different systems. That's just flawed logic.
