That doesn't make their numbers good, it just means they did slightly less badly. The WiiU has already dropped to half what MK8 boosted it too (and will likley continue to drop), and the 3DS is down from 230k last year to 103k this year. I don't expect Nintendo are pleased.

Funny thing is though Sony's total hardware sales for this week are actually higher than Nintendo's :p Both are still awful.

You are really trying hard to see everything bad ;) The WiiU is selling better now and that's a fact so it's not a bad week for Nintendo, it's getting better for Nintendo :)

The WiiU is doing better than previously, but still badly and dropping. The 3DS has dropped off compared to last year. Overall Nintendo are down pretty heavily from last year which, as you say, is a fact :)

Nintendo week ending Jun 15th 2013: 290k
Nintendo week ending Jun 14th 2014: 177k

See? Things have gotten a lot worse. Sony/MS are sitting at about the same sales as last year, but considering they just launched new consoles that's pretty bad too.

There is still time for things to improve, and hopefully VGc are under tracking everyone, but this particular week was dreadful for everyone compared to last year.
