Wii Party U kicking DKC:TF's ass? Wow. Wii Party U is a profoundly ridiculous release, and the Japanese seem to be gobbling it down.

It's bundled with the console in Japan.  New Super Mario Bros. U as well.

I believe the price is pretty much the same as buying the console without those two games, so people are picking up the bundle.

That explains it, particularly if the extra Wii Remote is included in that bundle.
