Brazil + Mexico video game market are worth 2.4B$ together which is 10% of US market, Wii U is apparently most popular 8th gen console in SA(specially Brazil)... So in Americas as of 30th September there could be 3,324M Wii U's sold so 110K stock/ on the shelves...

 

As a Brazilian, it is nowhere near true. Almost nobody has a Wii U here. The X1 is in all stores and the PS4 is selling a lot. Wii U is as expensive as a X1 here. PS4 was launched as the most expensive, but retailers are discounting it and selling for the price of the X1 and it's quite easy to find one cheaper.

I'm not that sure if the X1 or PS4 is the number 1 here, but it's quite easy to see that the Wii U is not popular. The lack of Fifa 15 on the Wii U will kill it. Everybody here wants Fifa or PES and nobody wants a console that doesn't have it.

Which region do you live? Because where i live this exactly the opposite. Nintendo fanbase is very strong here and casuals are loving the fact that wii u is backwards compatible (they can reuse their wii remotes and other accessories)

 

HINT: I live in one of the most big cities of Brasil
