Will Nintendo ship less Wii U this fiscal year compared to last year?

Impossible. If the Wii U can sell 5.2 million consoles with the garbage advertising (if any) it had, lack of compelling games outside 3d world and pikmin, and almost no rpg games for the japanese market, then i can only imagine this year, when games like Smash for the hardcore, Mario Kart for everyone, X and the shin megami/fire emblem crossover for rpg fans, and bayonetta 2 for the action fans come out.

Did u even read the OP?

Last fiscal year ended March 31, 2013. Wii U shipped 3.45m by then

This fiscal year is from April 1, 2013-March 31, 2014. In the first 6 months Wii U shipped only 460k. That means it needs to ship another 3m from October 1, 2013-March 31, 2014 in order to pass last fiscal years shipments.

2m over the holiday quarter is a reasonable estimate so from January 1, 2014-March 31, 2014 there needs to be another 1m shipped give or take a few 100k.

Ah, FISCAL year. My bad. If we're talkign about the next 3 months, then i doubt it then, as the holiday season is over and not much will make people want to go out and buy the console at the moment, thought by september this year, i have no doubt the wii u will outsell every other fiscal year. I'll be sure to read properly next time, sorry about that.
