Well, I expect the Wii U to definitely get a boost because it's getting a new game. I just don't think the game is big enough to believe it had a pre-release boost.

Well how do we kno it didn't? Looking at Hardware sales last week, WiiU is the only one with a major boost. 3DS had 2 new game releases that makes sense for being up 3-4k, but WiiU had DQ which is another re release and didn't sell well at all. Yes i believe the holidays had an effect but i think a little thanks goes to HW. Wasnt WiiU Increasing Week over Week for 2-3 weeks as well?

If WiiU sales are over 20k i think its safe to say HW had a help in with pre release week sales :)  The matter of the fact is we all just have opinions but unfortunately no real facts :-/

For the reasons I gave earlier. It's unreasonable to believe so because nothing supports it. Which is why I said believing it did is wishful thinking. See, I don't how a larger boost supports your theory. If the HW boost was spread out, then you'd think there'd be a smaller one since HW isn't a big game. 


How about pikmin 3?

What about it? Wii U did 6.5k, then 7.5k, then 21k. That 1k increase is largely pointless in the scheme of things. Even if you want to attribute it to Pikmin 3, it's a such a small number that isn't worth mentioning.
