The WiiU has only shipped 3.37m for the full year which I believe misses their forecast of 3.6m.  Thats terrible. WiiU is overtracked here by a few hunderd k in my opinion.

3DS has shipped 8.73m for the full year.  3DS is also overtracked by a few hundred thousand at least.

 

 

2015/16 expectations:  WiiU 3.4m, 3DS 7.6m 

2015/16 financial expectations: $300m profit on $4.7bn revenue. (hmmm)

That's being a mite generous to VGC. It's probably more like 2 million overtracked.

Looks like Wii U is about 200K over tracked. With the rate Wii U is selling I wouldn't be surprised if there were only about 250K WIi U's in the retail channels.

Financials are healthy at least. So long as Nintendo is making a profit they can ride this generation out and look for something transformative next gen.
