| Stefan.De.Machtige said: Nothing. Nintendo has already given up on their home console business. They will try to extend the 3DS live with the new edition and come with a really new idea or concept afterwards. Fusion idea seems likely. To why the Wii U will be lucky to sell 15 Million: Nintendo never really tried to sell it. They didn't care to plan, market, consult even their own people and generally think hard about what the console would or could be. The 3DS is likely failing to sell great, because of the reasons you listed. |

If this YOY trends continue...
2013: Wii U's sales worldwide: 3,189,230 * 0.694529.... = 2,215,013.286
Predicted Wii U's sales WW at end of 2014: 3,189,230 + 2,215,013.286 =5,404,243.286
Predicted Wii U sales WW LTD at end of 2014: Predicted Wii U's sales WW at end of 2014 + Total LTD Wii U's '13 sales:
Predicted Wii U sales WW LTD at end of 2014: 5,404,243.286 + 5,420,883 = 10,825,076.29
So if Wii U can't make it to 15 million ww LTD then this means:
Predicted goal (15,000,000) - Predicted Wii U sales WW LTD at end of '14 (10,825,076.29) =
15,000,000 - 10,825,076.29 = 4,174,923.71
So you're saying Wii U will not be able to sell 4,174,923.71 more units LTD if Wii U sales continues to be up 69.45% from 2013.
