Slightly below last year, but not too shabby yet.

Next 3 weeks will be interesting, with Mario Tennis/AC Amiibo Festival, then Black Friday, then Xenoblade Chronicles X release

Which week was the Smash Wii U release again last year?


Week 47 I believe. A lot of people held out on getting a Wii U till Black Friday, which I believe was week 48.

Last year didn't have a good bundle, but definitely a good game (smash)

This year we have a better bundle (Smash and Splatoon Wii U bundle for $250) but the "good game" doesn't hit until Dec 4th.

Im not certain on how well this year will do, but next year will be the best year probably. I mean it already has that amazing lineup of games and next year, Star Fox, Pokken, SMT X FE, Twilight Princess HD and Zelda U is already one of the best lineups. They are all pretty much system sellers too. So all those coupled with what the Wii U already has to offer, I bet 2015 won't beat 2014 (not a huge gap though) but 2016 will be the Wii U's best year.

Add to these some smaller games like Mario & Sonic @ Rio Olympics and Project Treasure (or how it is called now), and some yet unannounced titles and we have heck of a lineup for next year. I don't get why so many are saying Nintendo is already moving on to NX, they are still producing a lot of games for Wii U.
