Seems odd to compare a launch number to that of a dying end of life number.

True, but either way, it's not apples to apples.  I mean, with the Wii U it's Nintendo's new flagship home console, though many saw it as overpriced at launch at $299-$349.  With the NES Classic you have more of a nostalgia fueled toy that won't have the same hype behind it, but at just $60, no one is going to think twice about picking one up.  Can't really compare the two.  I also don't see the NES Classic continue to sell well months on end, like a real console would or even match Wii U's lifetime sales.
