I just noticed ur stealth edit Wii U is certainly selling poorly but Nintendo software is selling reasonably well on it. New Super Mario Bros U is on the verge of 4 million, Nintendo Land close to 3 million, Super Mario 3D World almost 2 million, New Super Luigi U & Wii Party U over 1 million, Wind Waker HD & Pikmin 3 almost 1 million and Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze 240k in 9 days. Could it be better? Yes, of course It could but when u consider the hardware has sold less than 6 million these sales are pretty good and will continue to grow as the install base grows. |
A lot of these games are bundled with hardware, for example you can't even buy a new Wii U without Wii Party U in Japan even if you wanted to unless you find deadstock inventory of the original SKU. It's a bit like Sony fans touting Knack's sales.
The GameCube was selling more Nintendo software at around the same 6 million number as the Wii U is (even things like Rogue Squadron II were moving great by comparision and Pikmin 1 was outperforming Pikmin 3).
