I get the feeling American and European consumers don't realize the Wii U is BC with the Wii. However, even if you factor that in, the sales would still be quite low I suppose.

On the other hand, Ni No Kuni in the West will surpass its Japanese sales once we get European launch week numbers. I wonder why the game had no hype in Japan.

That might be due to the DS Ni no Kuni, which released 1 year before the PS3 game in JPN and largely had the same content, although afaik it wasn't the same game. In the DS version you had to memorize and draw the spells yourself and such and though that sounds fun maybe it didn't work all that well.

wow, these supply issues are really holding back the sales of the wiiu. i wonder what's going on in the factorys. maybe foxconn workers are striking or something.

There are no supply issues.

I'm pretty sure he is mocking that one user who kept arguing low Wii U europe sales were due to supply issues.
