Wii U did well. The numbers from SMM seem to be holding decently.
I expected a drop due to the price cut, but a 50-60% drop still seems kind of steep. My guess is that it would have had about 14k otherwise, since Metal Gear Solid 4 didn't lead to a sustained increase of sales for the PS3. I would expect the same for MGS V, if not more so due to the fact that it's also on PS3.
Anyway, I expect even poorer numbers again next week (since some of the days this week were prior to TGS), and then the week after that will fill the gap substantially. My guess is that for the first October week, we'll see about 25-30k, and the same number of units for the week after that.
