It sold a terrible 40k in May down from 61k last year ... so that's probably going to be a no I'd say.


42.5k!

You really waited that to say what you said?You could just easily say it before...

At least wii u will probably get a decent and considerable boost in June,since mario kart 8  which released in the same time framed and had only two days on May npd just like splatoon,actually boosted wii u in June and not in May...May 13->May 14 32k->60k Jun 13->June 14 42k->140k!Also,USA gets a splatoon bundle in late June!(However,You never know after the shocking bigger splatoon afterweek wii u sales than the first week in Japan ,6k-7.7k-17.7k-21.1k,although an explanation to this would be that some stores didn't have sufficient or no wii u stock and in others wii u was sold out,so with the new shipments,many who couldn't find one in the week of splatoon release bought wii u in the second or the ones non wii u owners who couldn't find splatoon in its week of release since  the 97,33% of the shipments were sold and only 4k copies remained on the shelves,which made extremely difficult to find a splatoon copy,purchased it in the 2nd week,along with a wii u but still splatoon sells out so we might see another boost or not a big drop for the wii u.)

Consequently wii u sales in June,full month of five weeks, in the usa,might surprise us!If sales are not good in June,maybe I'll start worrying and thinking that NX tease,news,speculations e.t.c is hurting the sales of wii u and 3DS...
