LOL MKDD was a massive seller back in the day, remember the market was much smaller

and Smash???? It basically pushed GC in the US alone!!! it was a launch window game

 

still stop comparing to GC situation, it is very different today. Iwata is better at greelighting SW projects and consoles are trending more and more to 7 years life and i think WIiU will be that, more of a long runner than the GC ever was

That's great you think that. But there is no evidence for it, the only thing we have to go on is the here and now and the numbers since launch, and they do not favour the WiiU. (Don't make me pull out that NPD chart!)

You didn't provide numbers for those boosts? It'd help me justify what WIiU will do next year if you could post those numbers?


lol you know thers no numbers for those years, dont try to fool me.

its just common sense. SMash and MKDD are the best selling games on GC so the ones that ride the sales.

 

also theres no evidence of the contrary either.

 

GC was more frontloaded tahn WIiU, times were like that then everything was frontloaded thats why intergenerational comparisons are misleading.

I think WiiU will do much better than GC in japan, in order of nearly a 100% better, similar numbers in US and Eu is the big q.

can NIntendo really make WiiU pop in the EU? theres their fight.

all in all i can see WiiU hitting 30m. N64 levels more or less. enough to stay relevant for the real next gen lol

Not here no, NPD, MediaCreate, they all go years back though.

Again I see no evidence, there is shipment data to back that up right?

We'll know for sure the end of this year 2014, but this reminds me of people saying Wiiu doing under 8m by the end of this year were crazy, turns out it'll do under 6m. So don't assume the best just because the worst seems unlikely (in your eyes).
