I don't think it's a low estimate, and I don't think Wii U will consistently stay 11k/week above the Wii U from last year. 

No Mario Kart or Smash Brothers or 3D Mario for Wii U this year. 

The GameCube continues to outsell the Wii U monthly easily, the gap between the two is not shrinking, it grows bigger each month. Unless the Wii U has massive 2017/18 it's not getting within spitting distance of the GameCube IMO. 

No need for forecasting bad sales now when sales are still up year over year. Save the concern for the summer.


We don't really even know if sales are up YoY definitively yet so I'd hold off on counting chickens before they're hatched. 

There's been many times where people starting crowing over Wii U being "up YoY!" and then it basically turned out to be VGChartz overtracking the system, which it has a tendancy to do. 

There's no point in "concern" for the system either way -- it is what it is ... a dud of a system sales wise. Nothing really is going to change that now. That bus left the station a long time ago. 

When this gen is looked back upon, under pretty much no context will the Wii U be looked at as a success, sales wise. I think that's pretty safe to say.
