Vgchartz had it behind Madden (all versions) and Ass Creed (all versions), but NPD has it ahead of both of these.

lol look at my history guys, i told you guys the wii u would tank, wii won the battle but at the price of losing the war.



"Wii U has surpassed its predecessor in perhaps the most important category: revenue generation,”

Major fuckin spin. Revenue is only important if your making a profit. Or if you are comparing 2 items which sell at the same price not a 100 dollar difference

Wii U Hardware Sales Surpass Wii Sales by More Than $30 Million through First Six Weeks

With more than 460,000 units sold in December, Wii U has now sold nearly 890,000 units in the United States after only 41 days on the market, according to the NPD Group. To date, Wii U hardware sales have generated more than $300 million in the U.S. alone; Wii hardware had generated just more than $270 million at the same point in its lifecycle.

“While the Wii launch established new benchmarks in the United States, Wii U has surpassed its predecessor in perhaps the most important category: revenue generation,” said Scott Moffitt, Nintendo of America’s executive vice president of Sales & Marketing. “The demand for the Deluxe SKU, which was essentially sold out at retail this holiday, and the strong attach rate of New Super Mario Bros. U, shows that we have the value and the games to drive momentum in 2013. We look forward to offering great new experiences and bringing smiles to millions of new faces throughout the year.”

Nintendo sold more than 2.65 million hardware units in the United States in the month of December. 2012 marked the 11th consecutive year that Nintendo has sold at least 8 million hardware units in the U.S. Other Nintendo sales milestones achieved in December 2012 and beyond that time frame, include:

The Wii U is $50-$100 more expensive than the Wii was.......

 $600 PS3: 490,700
