| Dark_Lord_2008 said: Sales numbers have collapsed for the Wii in the past two years. 2011: sold only 12 million well down on previous years selling: 17, 24, 21, 20 respectively. Wii sales are 40% down on 2011. Wii U release later this year is needed to upgrade the aging Wii hardware. Wii U will give Nintendo the sales boost it needs and start off 8th generation. |
Not only due to HW upgrades, but most importantly due to solid SW backing by the big N (who reserved their big guns for the next gen rather than for the Wii transition).
