WiiU is 10.73m shipped and 10.49m sold through on the numbers here, so closer to being correct, maybe slightly overtracked depending on how much you think are on shelves. VitaTV numbers are tracked alongside Vita numbers on this site, yes. |
It's not that hard to count it approximately... It seems to be overtracked by 1m-1.2m
The stock in Japan as of September was at 500k ( deduced from comparison between Nintendo shipments data and Media create's sales data), Japan is the best selling territory of 3DS with 19m and 20k+ weekly selling, NA is at 17m+ with 20k+ weekly selling, so the stock may be close to Japan's viz 400k, 3DS Europe LTD according to vgc is at 14m, we can assume a stock fairly less than NA'S, to wit 300k!
Lastly vgc puts 3ds at 2m+ in the row probably the stock is less than 100k! 500k+400k+300k+90k=1.29m at most, 3ds units on the shelves!
The surplus is proven that comes from 2014, obviously from row numbers, since vgc has 3ds to had already sold more than eventually gba did in the row, which given the odds ( 3ds being fairly below gba in NA and same in Europe but in a way smaller extend than in NA) it's irrational!
As for wii u I discussed about it with someone last night her , so I'm quoting what I wrote yesterday:
Going by Nintendos numbers the Wii U looks over tracked on here. So everyone should adjust their numbers down
What...? The way you say that, makes it to arbitary...
No, it's not, if you have some elementary knowledge sales-wise...
VG has wii u at 10.53m as of 3rd of October 3rd and it's shipments are at 10.73m as of 30th of September! Vgc's tracking of wii u is close to perfect!
Meaning, 200k+ on the shelves, it's pretty reasonable given its selling rate.
Would you expect many wii u on the shelves or stores wanting many wii u units on their shelves? Some stores doesn't even have it, or stop ordering it and it's not being sold in many rest of world countries...
As of 30th of September, Wii u stock in Japan was at 60k (deduced by comparison of shipments from Nintendo's data and sales from Media create data) with wii u LTD at 2.5m and a 10k+ weekly selling, it had the same LTD in Europe with same weekly selling, so we can easily assume, that the stock size in Europe is the same with Japan's.
LTD in the NA/USA is at 4m+, consequently the stock may be double of what Japan has... 120k+! VGC puts ROW numbers at 600k ( a number that wii u has reached in one country, FRANCE), I suppose to have a very low stock of 5k-10k there! 60k+60k+120k+5k= 245k-260K on the shelveS!
P.s When we talk about something being overtracked/undertracked , we have to base it somewhere, saying plain that wii u is officially confimed ( by who?) to be overtracked, is an arbitary comment! Make a research before or just rationalize it, don't say things at random! edit: That doesn't address to you Krezzie! :P
