During the Wii initial years, the sales spread like wildfire due to Wii Sports Party trend, people loving the experience and going out to buy it immediately. I didn't sell any Wii's since friends who did try it at my house already had one or weren't interested. I was able to get them interested in other games such as Zack&Wiki, Just Dance or Go Vacation.

But I was surprised how so far I have sold three WiiU's, which doesn't really correlate with the market so far.

  • Sold a WiiU to an Australian VGCz member during the first European WiiU sale [link].
  • Last fall to a workmate, after taking the console to work a few months back, he tried the Rayman demo. When Rayman Legends got released, he bought the console just for that game.
  • And during the holidays, I left my second-nephews playing with Nintendo Land + Wii Party U. It was Nintendo Land that sold the console to them, a few days later I heard they bought the white console.

Have you sold any WiiUs? Which games helped?
