Great 3DS and Wii U numbers! Japan is keeping PSP alive.
PS3 are doing great. Wii, almost dead (needs a price cut).

this psp boost is due one piece

WTF Nintendo in general O_O;

This is what you call a healthy platform folks:

- Look at all those percentage increases week over week!

- Hell yeah, Paper Mario!  This will definitely outsell the first two games.  Hopefully it can leg it out and beat Super Paper Mario, which is at 505k.

- Animal Crossing showing it's bad-assery and then some

- Layton vs. AA, not so much... :(

- NSMB2 will be at 2million retail sometime next year.  It's a relative flop, but Sony and Microsoft would love to have a flop that sell that gaddamn much

- My personal favorite game legs to watch each week is this one: 15./13. [3DS] Tousouchuu: Shijou Saikyou no Hunter-Tachi Kara Nigekire! (Bandai Namco Games) {2012.07.05} (¥5.040) - 38.586 / 330.977 (+56%)

great 3ds sales, showing its hold in japan, wii u holding steady and i think its drop wont be as big as the ppl who have shown there wii u hate , want it too be.

Wii U should have a hopefully modest drop next week, but who knows. Nintendo needs to get some games out for it fast though. Q1 2013 isn't looking too hot right now. They need to start announcing titles and release dates asap.

Mario and Nintendo Land can't hold the fort for too much longer.

Pretty solid 3DS numbers, though it is to be expected around the holidays. Wii U holding up ok. Still amazed at the longevity of PS3 and PSP in Japan, especially without many new games these days. Does Japan just love the non gaming functions of those devices?

This about sums it up for the Vita:

There where a lot of people who bemoaned the fact that the PS3 wasn't the PS2 incarnate when it came to sales and now some people seem to feel the same way about the Wii U compared to the Wii  , my take on the sales is it's to early to get an accurate read but my instinct says going forward much like happening now the console sales will be split between the 3 players , As to the Wii U it's following a  product that became for a time not just a games device but the next big or for want of a better word a trend , most trends are either replaced after there 15 minutes of fame with the next big thing or become cyclical like the yo yo craze of the 1960's popping up again every few years , now the fact that the Wii had more to it than just the next big thing meant the fifteen minutes of fame lasted a lot longer than most and the  nature of the console  market rules out the yo yo phenomenon , so you could either see the success as one off and move on (extremely hard to do as it filled with so many negatives) , or try to replicate it with your product through refinement or by coming up with something new that strikes a similar cord with consumers including as I think of them Nintendo gamers and Wii gamers that is the type of dilemma that faces a product following on from  success based on differing from the from the norm .

I don't see it. I think the problem for Nintendo is all these franchises like Wii Sports and Wii Fit that really drove hardware sales for them 5-6 years ago, today will be minor sellers, much in the way Brain Training and Nintendogs + cats fizzled out on the 3DS. These are products that have their moment in the sun and then fade away. 

Remove that, and the system has more in common with the GameCube than the Wii IMO, even if its called Wii U. 

Still 40-50 million WW would be double+ the GameCube and around the same as the SNES. I wouldn't say that's a total disaster, Nintendo should be able to turn an OK profit. I see them becoming more of a Japan centric company. 

Still, you think it be on the chart as it was even last week. Most people would rather buy a 3DS in Japan, why buy an old console when the new one plays all the games from that console and more.
