How do you know this??
Gamecube sold 21m (a portion of those not Nintendo faithfuls) so for all we know the Nintendo home console fanbase was around 15m going into the Wii era, which may or may not have added any to that.
Perhaps 10m~ is that the Nintendo home console fanbase make up now.
And you can't expect them to all jump on board in the first 12 months! WiiU should be at 10m early 2015 that gives them 2 years for software to come along that appeals to them.

I know you take great joy in going on Nintendo threads and taking the negative side, but you're really stretching on this one to the point of being cringe-worthy and laughable.
|
What point do you disagree with? 10m end of 2014/early 2015? Would you have said the same thing for people saying under 10m end of 2013 a year ago??
Too often people are being shouted down for (now) realistic predictions, rather than optimistically thinking anything is going to cause a boost and reverse the trend, there is zero evidence to support this.

I think you are smart enough to know that MK8 and Smash alone will push WiiU this year way beyond this years sales. seriously. MK8 and Smash vs LegoCity, MH3U rehash, Zelda HD and Pikmin is just a massacre.
WIll double this years sales so 6m is my bet. wanna bet real money or smthing?
|
I don't bet, especially real money (wtf?) you have your opinion and I have mine, I've already been wrong on WiiU sales twice this year (first thought 8m LTD then 7m!) You also need to take into account the average sales being down YoY. Price cut and Mario are out yet sales are down 50% YoY in the US (with more weeks)
What boosts are you expecting those weeks just out of curiosity?

Nintendo is not that frontloaded so not a big boost, holidays 2014 are going to be big for WiiU though
