That is not a very impressive boost for the WiiU is it?

19k sold? Poor imo, and ps4 down to sub 7k?

Jesus, those hardware numbers are poor all round. Really poor.

How is hardware going up over 100% not an impressive hardware boost??

When you look at the SW sales, the boost in the UK and the predictions of those here, it's a fairly uninspired boost. 

Prior to MK8 launch, the UK WiiU situation was pretty bad. Even worse than in Japan. There was already a LOT of room for improvement there.

And while Japan Wii U sales have been low, they've had a reasonably steady baseline.

Are we sure that the console wasn't supply constrained that week?
