We've all seen the sales by now. Europe seems to have not taken a liking to Nintendo's new consoles. The 3DS is selling worse there than in any of the other major markets and Wii U isn't doing too hot either. Here are the sales:
Europe Hardware by Platform
Platform | Weekly (change) | Total | |
---|---|---|---|
Wii U | 53,638 | (-29%) | 469,064 |
3DS | 193,902 | (-26%) | 7,192,213 |
These numbers are quite a bit lower than North America's and Japan's.
Why is this? What Can Nintendo do to change this up? Will Nintendo become popular again in Europe this generation?
