Let me put it this way, releases push sales. 20% is a normal increase for Feb over Jan -- with software releases. Wii U doubled that with no software releases. That's not fishy to you?

its not fishy at all cause cause it's the norm, and i don't understand what you measn by doubled, it sold 57k in jan, it sold 65k, in feb, consoles always sell better in feb, with software or not.

The official statement is that it was up "over 40% weekly" from January. Since Jan had 5 weeks and Feb had 4.

So if the normal is 20% weekly with releases, and the Wii U is up 40% weekly with none, something isn't adding up right. That is NOT "the norm."

i'm not gonna keep explaining to you, it's the norm, go look at consoles sales, from jan to feb, there is always an increase, on every single console, doesn't matter if its 5 weeks cause people are broke from the holidays, it the norm, it folllowing the same trend, but what ever think what you want.

Is it wrong of me to ask WHY the Wii U was up over 40% weekly with NO new releases when the 360, which had several new releases in the top 10 software sales, was up less than 35% weekly? That is an anomaly.

Why are you so against the idea that returns hurt the Wii U's January sales data? It doesn't change any numbers.

360 did 302k, impressive number, 65k is not impressive, your comparison to 360 is useless, because wiiu sales are so low, that the comparison fails, its easy to see a huge in increase in percentage when you only sale, 57k, while its not gonna be as easy as selling 280k, but the fact is ever console goes up feb, and you ask why i'm against the idea because the idea has been proven false, the idea would have been proven correct if the wiiu sold 100k, but it basically only sold 8k more in a month where consoles sales always increase.
