ok but does that mean wiiu is set in stone to be under that? No. Like I said Vita is overtracked here by quite alot. They both by years end can end between 9.0mil-11mil, if the companies push hard enough.
Just cuz one expectations are this number, they might just do that to make themselves look better, it has happened many times before in different situations. Ex: MH4 was expected to sell 2.5mil units in 6 months, it did that in 3 or 4 weeks.
"It's trending similar to last year so far as well." Its good to look at info such as this but dont forget, little things can change. remember 3DS in Apr?

Just because Capcom (obviously) underestimated something, doesn't mean Nintendo have. They've overestimated Wii/WiiU hardware for as long as I can remember now, of course Nintendo fans think 3.5m is low with Mario Kart, but then they've constantly been proved wrong on WiiU hardware sales. That 3.5m is still a rise of like 40% yoy (will have to check the figures) so expecting more than that based on your expectations of MK alone, because not even Nintendo are agreeing with you this time, is like I said, weak. But hey, WiiU might be bundled with fridges right? WE JUST DON'T KNOW!!!!
3DS was 106, I predicted 70 - 90k, are you really claiming this is anything of note? if 3DS had done something dramatic then yes, but no.

You were dead wrong, nuff said. As for Capcom , they didnt underestimate it, they knew, they had freaking 1.5mil in pre orders, they obviously did that on purpose.
"Oh you're wheeling out that "It's not a fact therefore anything can happen" line, incredibly weak retoric, get something new. How do you know Vita is overtracked? And by how much? "
Thats not incredibly weak lmao, its not set in stone. Expectations can be broke, its happened many times before. So pls stop trying to say that cuz somebody doesn't agree with you they are wrong.
Anywayz for vita being overtracked, i showed you a long time ago in US it was over 130k at LEAST from comparing NPD+VGC numbers (i did it for 3ds as well and it was 500k overtracked at LEAST). Also looking at shipments and sold for psp+vita, in comparison vgc had it sold i think about 10mil-11mil in the past 2 years (psp was still doing good in 2012, take it into consideration) and shipped numbers exceeded 13mil in 2 fiscal years
