Hate to sound like a broken record, but that's not exactly a fact. Games are released all the time, but they don't always affect hw. Even gt4 (if memeory serves- I remember reading an article about it) didn't help ps360 hw sales when it launched, despite the impressive sales of the game itself.
Gravity Rush and Persona 4 are considered two of the best games available on psvita, yet they didn't help hw sales notably. Gravity Rush increased sales, but not nearly as much as people predicted/expected. Same with dreamcast and all the amazing games that certain people keep praising.
In many cases they do. A prime example is new super Mario Mario Bros Wii. There are tons of other examples, I'm sure. However, it not a fact that because a game sells well, it will affect hw sales too.
At any rate. Good to see some positive news about Wii U. I hope it starts doing better, though hopefully it will also force Ninty to rethink their whole strategy with their next console.
