You are right, I thought it was two games but Reggie only said "more than one", he didn't give any specifics.

There is no source, and the revenue gain over the wii is a joke, the wii was supply constrained so its potential revenue was never realized and the Wii U costs 50-100 dollars more at retail. |
Its called spin, this same barometer was just used for the ps3 lol. So why cant it be used here? Remember how the Ps3 generated more money, which means people are willing to 'pay more' well looks like ninty just did the same.
Once Nintendo releases their Q4 2012 report, and investors realize revenue doesn't equal profit, I expect Nintendo's stock to fall.
Im sure I've already seen this thread here. :/ Guess maybe the wiiU isn't doing as bad as some people want it to.

Well, the sales numbers overall aren't bad. However, if you look at how they are trending, it's not that great. During Japan's busiest sales weeks, the Wii U was still dropping each week. Europe doen't seem too interested in it. In the US, it is being outsold by the Wii. While some may point out that the PS2 outsold its successor when the PS3 first launched, it's not exactly the same. The PS2 was selling extremely well in the US, the Wii isn't. The PS2 was only 5 years old when the PS3 launched, this will be the Wii's 7th year on the market. In other words, this gen is already dying and people are ready for next. And while the Wii U is ~$170 more than the Wii (only $30 more than the PS3), the PS3 was a full $370 more expensive than the PS2.
The biggest point here is that price isn't exactly an obstacle for the Wii U. As I pointed out above, the Wii U is only ~$30 more expensive than the PS3. I feel a price cut to $249 will definitely help out its sales, but I don't expect it to be a complete turn around, like it was for the 3DS.

I'm sure they mean North America.
