But it has sold 1.6 million copies worldwide so far. It may not have sold too many copies, but it was bought by a lot of people who already owned Wii U.

Are those official numbers released by Nintendo?

Official numbers haven't been released - they'll be coming tomorrow, most likely, in the Supplementary Information pdf (same one that usually lists upcoming games, recent releases, etc).

But here's the thing - you've used the 480k Wii U in US claim, which is based on rumour from NPD. The only thing we know right now is that December 2013 for Wii U was better than in any previous month in the US (including both November 2012 and December 2012). This was revealed by one of NPD's own analysts. The only upper limit to the number, at this point in time, is 908k, which is how much the Xbox One sold in December (NPD have stated the Xbox One had highest sales for home consoles). People claiming 480k are basing it on NPD's December 2012 number for Wii U, which was "over 460k", and the fact that they've said it's above that number.
