I'm narrow minded because I think it's overtracked (which this site has a tendancy for?) Ok then. Nope...

You are narrow minded because you ignore now well enstablished library with over 100-150+ games with a lot of exclusives that are out now and that are going to be released... Wii U's 300$ SKU is not 8GB storage without any bundled games anymore, now it is 32GB storage with one or two games bundled... Nintendo now markets its console more agressively than before...

I guess you don't understand concept of changes, things change and situations change like it happened with PlayStation 3 and with 3DS... "Miracles" happen... DS was expect to flop and it sold gangbusters and so did Wii.

Just because Wii U sold poorly/badly does not mean that sales won't improve and that the trend would continue...

I smell backtracking come thursday ... the only time WiiU has managed over 100k is in a holiday month. It was barely up YOY in Dec, (21k I believe) which is about 4%? Yet you think it's perfectly normal for it to be up 95% YoY in January.

Just because Wii U managed 100K only in holiday months does not mean that it can't do that this year before holiday months... Are you intentionally ignoring exclusives that will be out on Wii U? The increased value that it has now than year before it got a price drop for its "Deluxe" SKU that is now primary SKU while "Basic" SKU is practically discontinued... It has an appealing library of games... Do you have Monster Hunter on PlayStation 4 or Xbox One? No... Do you have Nintendo franchises on PlayStation 4 or Xbox One? No... Do you have Bayonetta 2, Sonic Boom, FAST Racing Neo on PlayStation 4 or Xbox One? No...

Things change... If things don't change then Wii would still keep selling gangbusters and PlayStation 3 would continued to have poor sales, 3DS would have been in bad position and Xbox 360 would still have a considerable lead over PlayStation 3...



And sometimes, things don't change. Xbox, Gamecube ect. I agree completelly... Yet did Xbox 360 sold nearly as poor as original Xbox? No and did Nintendo's Wii sold as bad as Gamecube? No.

Don't think whatever these companies do is magical and infallible and HAS to work, because sometimes it doesn't I don't think, you are just think that I do because of some predetermined expectaction or you hope so that I do.

Anyway you completely ignored the logic. Nope... You did. Every action has an reaction and effect, otherwise there would not be changes...

WiiU had all of those things in December in the US and was up 4%. Yet you think in January it's fine for it to be up 95%.

...and it was enough for Wii U not to flop in holidays, if there weren't for price drop and Super Mario 3D World then Wii U would have a debacle and its performance would have been laughable. You are just being butthurt... :P

Learn to read, I said it did nothing for December sales year over year, which it didn't, that's factual. Was up a mere 4%.

What? You need to learn to read... I was explaining about entire Q4 which includes December. NVM... You can't connect dots.
