We are currently in Q4 of the Fiscal Year Ending March 31, 2015.  I am curious as to why you think sales will be up YoY, as I don't see any system sellers this quarter to boost sales.  The following quarter, Q1/FY2016, will most likely be down YoY as well, since last year the sales were high due to the release of Mario Kart.


Jan-Mar 2014: 310k Shipped had DK:TF

Jan-Mar 2015: ???k Shipped has MP10 and will have a little stronger early sales from 2014 holiday (going by US of course)

I think shipments will be better here^ Not by alot, but a small amount.

 

As for Q2 (Q1 for FY) Yes last year had MK8, i get that but we dont know everything yet for Apr-June. I said most likely it'll be down, but its not set in stone. If Yoshi Wolly World/MM/Splatoon and maybe like 1 more game mid level game comes out, i think It has a chance of being up, Even japan has XCX for the quarter

Q1:
Kirby and the Rainbow Curse Wii U - February 20, 2015
Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Tipping Stars Wii U - March 5, 2015
Mario Party 10 Wii U - March 20, 2015
Mario Maker Wii U - Q1 2015
Yoshi's Woolly World Wii U - Q1 2015

Q2:
Splatoon Wii U - May 2015

It is possible some Q1 titles could shift into Q2.  None of them are system sellers in my opinion (we've already had 2 big Mario platformers).  We may get StarFox in Q3 and Zelda in Q4.
