this quarter? around 2M, maybe more if mario kart releases in late march. beacuse this january seems to have better momentum than the last one. wii fit may help too but it's mostly because of the spyke donkey kong will cause. |
2m sold in the Jan-Mar quarter alone? That isn't remotely realistic. Also the limited data we have so far indicates the Wii U has less momentum in January, not more. Week 1 is down YoY in Japan. In the UK the Wii U had no games in the top 40 (individual/units) in either the first week of 2013 or 2014. However 2013 had NSMBU (24th) and Nintendo Land (30th) in the value chart. The Wii U this year has nothing in the top 40 value.
Considering the quarter will be more than half over by the time DK is out Worldwide, it is going to need a hell of a spike. Probably equivalent to what it was doing over the holidays. I think a lot of people have forgotten that holiday sales don't last forever. I've seen multiple predictions recently that expect similar or greater sales in Jan-Mar than in Oct-Dec.
