Still wrong,4 weeks remain from 6th of dec,wii u won't sell only 500k in 4 weeks!3.7m at least,december is five weeks for vgc like npd!265k as of 15th dec, 343k as of 21th dec,232k as of 28th dec,117k as of 4th Jan=1m (rounded),so 3.7m!

And these numbers isn't a prediction,is what wii u sold in those weeks in 2013!

You implied 8.5m wii u by the end of the year,ew!Almost all here say 9m...

I didn't really count the last week that's only 1 day in december. Also expecting some downward adjustments. But nevermind.

Let's go with 3.7m. That's a whooping almost 12% increase over the first full year. And it only needed Nintendo's 2 biggest IPs in the same year. That's some serious performance right there.

Doesn't really change my initial point but thanks for attacking the arbitrary number I pulled out of my ass aka the most unimportant thing in that paragraph.

Don't use the word attacking,I wasn't agressive!Just shocked from the unjust mistake!

We have to wait for the price cuts,if it still perfoms bad,then doomed!

We can be optimistic,as I aforesaid gc sold 13m in its first two years,with two consecutive price cuts of 50$ and 50$ respectively,the 60% of its total sales(the probable reason why it dominates wii u)!Why wii u with 250$ price in 2015 and 200$ price in 2016 wouldn't sell more than its first two years?

I know,you will tell me that it wouldn't and I will understand it!

I might be criticized for this argument but I will use it!Windows 8/8.1 reached two years in the market with a bad perfromance,seeing small growth and some drops,completely doomed from analysts and journalists!

All of a sudden,it jumped by 7% in november reaching 18% marketshare,while previously it was falling,forcing ms to announce windows 10!But finally absorbed a 7% of the xp users and it was first time that windows 7 got almost nothing from xp share and win8.1/8  got the lion's share!

Who would expect the unbelievable resurgance of windows8.1/8 which put the release date of windows 10  8 months later!Some great moves from ms helped windows8.1/8,something that even ms didn't expect to happen,that's why it was hasty to announce windows 10...

Such a great move in wii u case is two consecutive brave price cuts!
