Yeah certainly I expect a pretty ugly collapse for Wii U sales from Jan-March this year even with DKC.

Probably like 30k for Jan, 35k for Feb, and 30k for March for the US market.

I can see some logic in Wii U selling GameCube level, even if I think it'll do better. But this is either a sad excuse for trolling, or an unlogical prediction. 


I'm tired of Wii U apologists saying stuff like with nothing to back them up. You guys have been dead wrong *all year long*, talked a big game all year long about how this fall was going to change everything, and labelled anyone a troll for making predictions that in many cases actually were higher than what the actual numbers turned out to be.

Some humilty is in order, IMO. There's nothing unreasonable about my predictions. 

Let's make a bet.


Why don't you make an actual prediction with actual numbers of your own so it can be on record for everyone to see? I'd venture a bet that if you were asked to predict Wii U sales every month from day 1, every month you would list them to be considerably higher than what they actually turn out to be. 

When you have to make actual predictions based on numbers that when reality sets in a little bit because you have to actually look at what the data is telling you. 

Nov - 220k (confirmed); 280-290k was my prediction. 

Dec - 380k 

Jan - 30k

Feb - 30-38k

Mar - 35k

Would be my predictions, barring an unforseen change like a price drop before April. 

December: 360k

January: 42k

February: 45k

March: 39k

Are u fucking kidding me? U called him a troll because he thinks Q1 USA sales will be about 100k yet u think it will be 125k


The January numbers you guys have will be pretty close but everyone is underestimating how big of a franchise Donkey Kong is.  DKCR sold 6 million and the 3DS one is almost at 1 million, and its just a 3D port.  Sales in March will be higher too due to Mario Kart launching a month later, and people getting bored with their PS4 and Xbones.  I already have read a handfull of posts from people regretting buying the new consoles because they dont have much to offer in terms of games, just wait and see what happens when there will be nothing to play for months and the Wii U will be the only console with a decent library and new games actually coming out.

Not sure why u quoted me, those arent my numbers. I was just calling him out for calling the other guy a troll despite having similar numbers.
