Another unprofessional and biased IGN article with either incorrect or manipulated data.

Where are the holiday sales? Where are the handheld sales?

Why they say the Wiiu sold 2 million on its first weeks when official data points 3,08 million auntil Dec,13,2012 (5.5 weeks)

Why trying so hard to make XboxOne sales seems bad when actually they were pretty good?

IGN can´t be taken seriously anymore, I give up reading IGN long time ago.

You are completely wrong. I know IGN are really bad with this kind of analysis but you really doesn't understand everything here.

1: it is about home consoles. What's wrong with it?...

2: Nintendo shipped 3.06m Wii U as of Dec, 31st, 2012. It was clearly overshipped in the WHOLE Europe. Even in France where the players buy a lot of Nintendo stuff, they shipped 240K in 2012 and sold less then 50% of it with 118K (so 122K in stock). 2.2m as VGC shows is a nice estimate, IGN might be slightly understimating it with 2m but it's still not a "bad" estimation.
