We kno (for this gen)

WiiU overtracked by 100k-300k maybe 400k (Hard to pinpoint)

3DS overtrackec by 800k-1.2mil

PS4 overtracked by Negative 200k-400k

Vita overtracked by 1 (just 1) to 2mil (Seriously, we have no idea how much this thing has sold other than 3.2mil in japan and about 1.8mil in the US)

X1 overtracked by 100k-150k in the US. Dunno about Europe

I'm curious as to what you think Nintendo will ship this current Q? Remembering they shipped 510k last Q with Mario Kart.

What's your prediction?


Most logical answer overall would be imo 400k. Mario Kart 8 is still doing well, but with no new software aside from Hyrule Warriors, it should be down.

That said, in japan WiiU sales have improved from last quarter, could help out somewat, and US the MK8 bundles were very very limited and Nintendo has announced a wiiu bundle is coming soon (though unfortunately its at the end of this quarter.

My guess is 7mil shipped at the least, 7.4mil at the most (if they did indeed send alot.

That's interesting, I actually think they can do better than 400k.

But to do as well as VGChartz is showing, (which will translate to 7.37m/7.42m by the end of September) WiiU needs to ship 690k/740k just to be even with our figures, that doesn't take into account the fact that if it's selling 55k a week, there should/would be at least 8 weeks worth of stock in the channel, so 400 - 500k more on top of that.

We're expecting 1.2m/1.3m shipped.

If Nintendo ship 600k then we're at least 400k overtracked, minimum.

Edit - and as for XB1, since when was US 65% of the XB1 market. The figures show XB1 has held up better in Europe/elsewhere than the US compared to 2013 figures.
