just to clarify...
are you saying at the end of the year the total lifetime sales of wiiU will be 8-11M or that wiiU will sell 8-11M in 2013?
i can buy into the first. 8M - 2.2M(2012) = 5.8M(2013) and achievable. i know right now wiiU is tracking below vita(2012) and 5.8M is well above vita last year but i do expect the holiday sales to be much better for wiiU than vita was.
if you mean wiiU to sell 8M in 2013. no. i just can't see that big of a turn around. wiiU is going to flounder until some games get released and right now there is nothing (much) notable announced with release dates this side of june. that's too much of a handicap to hit 8M this year even with an amazing turn around.
edit: i see you claryified this while i was posting this.
