lol It was never sold at a loss how it would lose money? And for a 21.74m selling hardware, its software sales were pretty high...

 

Which games? As for the poor sales... There is something good with them, since wii u was being sold at a loss, if it was selling way better it would lose more money and I'm not sure if the software sales would be in a extend to offset them, especially providing that there was no third party support!

 

As for the edit part, that's a frustrating downplaying! What do you mean by that?  It's always ps4/xbone just in the UK ( but it in the USA, is expected since we get only a top ten an that with multiplatform games sales combined, in single skus you see 3ds titles and not lately released ) , lol you say everywhere do you watch german charts for instance? Or how you feel about yokai watch slaying uncharted 4 in Spain charts?

 

Is smash bros 3DS selling 3m in the USA a flop? Which ps or especially xbox exclusive can  match Mario kart 7 or Pokemon x/y sales nowadys ?  You could  have word your opinion  differently, no offense but as is now it manifests something suspicious, you draw a negative picture with things that are invalid!

Yeah it used to be different with the beasty ds but that was an anomaly... You can guess why! Before ds it was GBA.... Eh? Anywise, 3ds has almost the same attach rate with ds while destroys gba in that  part!

You can't say that a handheld platfrom with 60m hardware sales and 300m software sales, isn't selling much software, based on selective use of sales charts and individual cases!

Ok, dude. This is rich coming from you. You paint Ninty in a positive picture in every single post I've see from you. So, let's not be hypocrites, shall we? You probably find this "suspicious" because I don't paint your favourite company the way you want.

"if it was selling way better it would lose more money". Hardcore fans will twist anything bad into something postive, I guess. 

A simple google search would tell you that wiiu was sold at a loss when it launched and for some time after that. Please, don't spread misinformation.

Yes, I see all the charts. Ps4 games dominate them. You're looking at the exceptions because of your confirmation bias.

"based on selective use of sales charts and individual cases". The irony is strong with this one.

hahahaaha I know it already naru and better than you ( I can even put the reasons why wii u was being sold at a loss, one by one  ) why did you say that? Lately, i was talking about the wii u two year loss ! People who care for Nintendo, search for both positive and negative things to have a full picture and when they're as much as objective they can be  they know better their favorite company's  position, than those who aren't interested in or dislike  it! As for them being rich, google Nintendo is not doomed...

I didn't twist anything... There is something good with them, since wii u was being sold at a loss, if it was selling way better it would lose more money and I'm not sure if the software sales would be in a extend to offset them, especially providing that there was no third party support! I'm saying something logical, would sony lose so much money with ps3 if it was selling  like wii u? It's not my fault if you can't comprehend this!  Maybe Nintendo didn't make any move to boost wii u sales to not lose more money within those two years when it was being sol at a loss, eh? There's always something positive in negative things, that's the spirit of this argument!

  

Thanks for the blatant and virulent attack  along with the accusation for bias! Ι could have reciprocate taking into account your comment  history too but I didn't, you lost your temper, I won't lost mine!

 

I avoided to  reproach  you for the the same things,  contrarily! Most of the time I choose to stay polite and don't hurt people in vein/when I'm not sure they deserve it or do an injustice to them, you sould have appreciate that!
