The second half for Wii U will do a lot better, however, the first half is not that bad. With Kirby, Mario Party 10, Splatoon, Xenoblade (may be in second half for NA and EU) Yoshi's Woolly World, Project Robot and a few more on the way, the sales will be better this year over last years first half. And again, this years second will be better than last years second due to the fact of the major releases. Wii U only had two MAJOR system sellers which were Mario Kart 8 and Super Smash Bros. I have a feeling Xenoblade Chronicles X, Splatoon, Star Fox U AND Zelda U will all be system sellers. ESPECIALLY in NA. That is twice the amount of last year. Plus, rumor has it that Animal Crossing U is in the making which if it is, BAM, another system seller. So really, this year will definitely be better than last year, but depending on the surprises Nintendo has for us will determine how well. |
MK8 alone has more selling power than all those games together IMO.
The only game there with significant console selling power is Zelda.

I would say Xenoblade Chronicles X has the potential to move some units, but it's a wild card. However, the other games will stabalize the baseline at a higher level and the Wii U's image is vastly improved over the previous year. The spikes won't be as extreme, but the baseline will be higher and more stable.
