Also on a side note, while WiiU is down YoY in Japan, it's up YoY by about 3% Worldwide. This is before Mario Kart, it's pretty much a guarentee that WiiU will be up YoY. The question is when will it be up in Japan.

By my count the Wii U is down YoY before Mario Kart.

For the 21 weeks ending May 24th 2014, the Wii U is at 863,814.

For the 21 weeks ending May 25th 2013, the Wii U is at 840,752.

Unless by worldwide you meant outside of Japan, but I think it is still down slightly by that metric.

Fixed, WiiU is up 23,062, which is 2.8%. This is before Mario Kart, I expect WiiU to by up by about 10% by the end of the month, if not more.
