Wii u total shipments by the end of FY15Q1 (END OF JUNE), was at 2.48m and sales at 2.42m, so the remaining number pertains to 60k stock and by my research, I have seen that wii u stock in Japan has been consistently at 60k...
Wii u sales were at 2.42m (and shipments at 2.48m,i.e 60k stock) as of 30th of June, going to 2.596m sold as of september, so it sold 176k JUL-SEPT(2.42m+176k=2.596m), of which was the remaining 60k units stock from previous quarter and 116k which were shipped and sold in the last FYQ.
However,wii u must have supply in the channels, which usually is at 60k,consequently, along with the 116k units that Nintendo shipped and sold between JUL-SEPT,they must have shipped another 60k for stock! 60k + 116k =176k...2.596m sold + 60k stock=2.656m shipped as of september 27th!
Nintendo had shipped 60k wii units in FY15Q2, with seemingly 176k shipped this year same quarter implies a 194% yoy up, Nintendo had shipped 150k wii u units in FY15Q1 again up from 60k/150% yoy up of last year. Also,in quarter over quarter we have 26k more units shipped.
Nintendo had shipped 170k units in Japan in the first six months of the FY14,something that it seems it managed to do in three months this fiscal year...
As for globally,here's my assumption:
Nintendo shipped 470k wii u units last quarter, of which the 150k in Japan, 190k in the Americas and 133k in Europe+others.
Predicting a flat perfomance in the Americas and Europes+others + the 176k units in Japan we have almost 500k shipments in FY15Q2, but taking into account the super mario maker boost to wii u in the USA in september, we can surmise that the shipments must have been increased somewhat for NA (or at least that a QOQ fall is improbable) , also FYQ2 includes september a month when sales are jumping in the west after summer draught), ergo we get more than 500k wii u global shipments and 10.51m+LTD...
P.S
You would ask for sources, all numbers are taken by Nintendo investor relations site+neogaf Media create threads, I don't put them because it will perplex the op...
