| t3mporary_126 said: If Wii U sales are 10 million LTD sometime in 2014, does it mean it has sold twice as much as it had in 2013? If so, I think we won't see 10 million until 2015 unless Nintendo begins to aggressively advertise the system and releases a new and innovative game that makes use of the Game Pad that is hard to imagine but also fun to play. |
to hit 10M this year wiiU will need to sell (10M - 5.479M =) 4.521M this year. in 2013 wiiU sold 3.232M. so to hit 10M this year it will need 39.882% increase.
in the 4 weeks following the holiday wiiU sold: 270,285(2014) and 242,344(2013) for a YoY growth of 11.529%
by the numbers availible, wiiU won't hit 10M until 2015. we'll see how MK8 does. it's a big game but there are even bigger gaps between releases this year. smash will not save wiiU's holiday either, imo. by the numbers 3D mario is a tad bigger of a franchise saleswise than smash.
