Did you guys think the Wii U was selling well in Europe all this time? I'm afraid I have some bad news.

There's doing badly, and then there's doing horribly. This is the latter. Looking at stores and the selection in some Finnish stores I knew it wasn't doing so hot (not at two games being available levels, but still), but I didn't expect to see it do negatively, literally.

Yeah, it's doing horribly. But the numbers we have show that. A shipment of literally 0 Wii Us to Europe would have come as no surprise to me -- and a negative shipment? Well, considering the phasing out of the Basic models right before the end of the quarter explains that.

This just isn't alarming to me, because I was already alarmed by it six months ago. Since then, it's just been same-old-same-old.

Yeah, I see. I've not been following shipments at all, and sales just barely. Gotta enter for a title like that one, though.
