Umm I'm looking at November of 2013 and November of 2014, not much of an increase.

I mean prior month to current month. iow October 2014 vs November 2014. It works better in less peak periods though.
A good example of the metric in action was the month Mario Kart 8 came out. A boost month over month was obvious because we knew that in the month prior nothing important came out.

Consoles generally sale better during the holiday season though. So although Smash Bros. did make Wii U sales increase month over month, it was also suppose to raise Wii U's number YoY. This is especially true because it was positioned to release in the US first before any other region in order to be ready for black friday sales.
However, I don't blame Smash Bros for not helping Wii U sales rise up YoY. I blame Nintendo for not deciding to bundle and price drop their system when Sony and Microsoft did. But seeing how low Wii U sales are, I also understand why a Smash Bro bundle or price drop didn't happen.

You blame Nintendo when M$ was throwing money around at retailers to make speaical deals for their medicore console and wasting so much money on doing drastic price cuts in one year all while the console only has one good game? M$ hi-jack the Wii U's sales by buying their way to the top spot. Go do your research.
