MS wasn't including Wii U, as they specifically said current gen, so PS3 is under tracked by quite a bit.

Seems like 270k for Wii U O.o

Our rough math would put Wii U hardware sales at 374,604 in January vs. 604,200 Wii units in 1/2007. And that's with supply constraints.

There should be a missunderstanding, 370K WiiU is a too good to be true number.

They corrected.

Correction to previous tweets: CUMULATIVE three-month Wii U sales are down 38% vs. Wii's first three months on the market. Apologies!

So if my math is right. 1516k Wii's in the first three months. Down 38% would be 940k

Wii U 890k first two months.

So the Wii U did 50k in January.

so 70k overtracked in the US (lifetime).

~10k/week for WiiU? Ouch!

Nintendo fans, it's okay. Us Vita fans know how you feel.

iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.
