WiiU shipped 610k this Q, in the same comparable Q Gamecube shipped 810k. This means the gap increased 200k in Gamecubes favour.

As of this Q it's 7.29m WiiU's shipped vs 10.45m Gamecubes.

Totally wrong.

It's in french, if you don't understand it : wiiU was 2.87 M behind Gc before, now it's 2.34.

No. Look above, I said that chart was confusing, GC launched a Q early in Japan, so you need to compare the last dot for GC with the WiiU one.

Gamecube launched in EU/NA Nov 2001, WIiU launched Nov 2012. End of September of their second full year the stats show 7.29m Vs. 10.45m Gamecube.

Really wish people would stop trying to correct me when I'm not wrong.

Oh well, i will just post this here :

Sorry if i prefer to trust one of the biggest french gaming site than you.

Sorry but there, Seece is right and you are wrong. I already made a comment on gamekult to explain it but i'll do there again for you.
The GC launched in Sept. 2001 in Japan, Nov. 2001 in US, and May 2002 EVERYWHERE ELSE.
The Chart made by OscarL is false because it starts by counting the September month of the gamecube (only 2weeks in japan). Against a worldwide release of Wii U in November.
He should have started the gamecube chart 1 quarter later, so gamecube had a 2months advantage for japan, BUT still 6 MONTHS of disadvantage for the whole world except US/Japan.

His chart just shows Wii/WiiU with 2 Months headstart against GC in US and 9 Months headstart EVERYWHERE else. It's just not right & fair.


So the gap between GC and WiiU is 3.16m, up 200k from last quarter as Seece said.
