They are not of abysmal quality. They simply were not enough to rocket the console out of its hole. MK8 is. To boost the console of that many units after 2 years on the market is huge, much greater than what WD did for the PS4.

The U jumped 345% the week MK8 launched, for an absolute jump of 100k. Watch Dogs caused a global jump of 61% for a total of 68k absolute jump.

The U is not a piece of trash, and still you have no explanation to your arguments that it is offering the same games as Sony and MS. The controller? I hope that's not your argument.

All WiiU games have struggled so far to sell the U, ALL Wii U games. Including all the low-value Wii-type games you so love. Art Academy, Wii Sports, Nintendo Land, Wii Play U, etc etc. All have struggled to sell, the only difference is that these I just mentioned plumetted, while the original games that are high quality have not plumetted. MK8 is on to sell very well if this trend is any indicator.

Are you seriously using percentage gains in an argument? You know those are completely worthless if the initial numbers are so low. For example, the Vita had an 1800% increase from April to May, and that's without any major exclusives. Is that proof the console is a success and is going to start outselling the 3DS? Of course not, you would have to be delusional to think that. The same level of delusion that would cause anyone to think that the WiiU is anything other than a complete sales failure. Watch Dogs may have had less of an effet on PS4 but PS4 still handily outsold the WiiU 3 times over in US alone. Even in Japan the WiiU only got a jump to 19k, which is very quickly dropping. 

I also noticed you ignored my earlier post about NPD and Japan numbers after the Mario Kart launch. Interesting, so actual hard numbers are not important to you but percentages are? The level of spin in this thread would make Reggie proud. 



Sigs are dumb. And so are you!
