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.


It's going to be ruff for the Wii U because they're competing against PS3, XB360,PS4 and XB1. They might not do it this year in all honesty. I think the Wii U needs a price drop to get to 10 million by this year.
