I have a feeling those 3DS numbers are wrong. The 3DS has been doing too good recently for that to be true.

NPD has shown its been on track, and we have reliable numbers. Tomodachi Life also showing great legs so its probably helping maintaining that # weekly (also japan is currently doing 40k+ alone)

Yo-kai Watch 2 is doing crazy numbers, that's for sure. That's really helping the 3DS (all models) stay at a ~40k baseline, too.

I'm still surprised at how well Tomodachi Life is doing outside Japan. At this rate, it'll break 500k in less than two weeks.

definitely am surprised at tomo life performance in the west!

Yeah, I agree. Crazy numbers it's been selling, and I think that it'll reach at least reach a million outside Japan, or even match Japan numbers!

Now, for my comments (Nintendo exclusive :P):

Wii U: Mario Kart 8 is still selling faster than the Wii U itself?! Does this mean that MK8 will reach 1 million in this quarter alone? That's a crazy thought.

Also, Obon week in Japan will push Wii U sales past 60k overall. No, not only because of Hyrule Warriors/Zelda Musou, it's because it's Obon week.

By the way, Super Mario 3D World sold ~11k overall this week. Legs.

3DS: I want to think VGChartz is overtracking this, but Yokai Watch 2 is the tide lifting all boats with it.

Yoshi's New Island is still selling well in Japan (~39k copies, ~33k came from Japan, I believe.), and Pokemon X&Y sold just a bit more. Eh, virtual tie.

Stating the obvious: Tomodachi Life is a success with long, beautiful legs.
