PS4 is supply constrained in the west. It's baseline isn't 125k, we don't know what it is until it's in plentiful supply. So even if the Japan baseline is 10k, PS4 is still going to outsell WiiU 100k a week. By the time MK comes out PS4 is going to be 1m+ ahead of WiiU, MK isn't going to push that many consoles. WiiU barely managed 1m over the holiday season.

now you're thinking wii u will go back to 40k imedeately after dk releases? and what the wii u did or did not in the holidays doesn't affect MK's power.

ps4's baseline should also lower considerably.

During the holidays, week of Super Mario 3D World, WiiU barely passed 100k. (http://www.vgchartz.com/weekly/41602/Global/)

Why you think DK of all games is going to give WiiU a permanant and decent boost is beyond me, there is nothing to suggest it will.

WiiU's baseline will go below 40k, back to where it was last year, sub 30k.

Why will PS4's baseline lower? There is nothing that suggests that either, it is supply constrained, it's going to go up not down.

You were also way off on Japan launch, you said 140k? Did 320k.

The problem with the WiiU is the WiiU itself, so no price cuts and games will propel it to reasonable levels. It's been on the market for 16 months now, 2 holidays, a price cut and various blockbusters, yet it's all amounted to very little growth.
