Woah......that's pretty terrible.

WiiU needs a game injection.

No wonder Nintendo and Sony are so quiet...


Sony has always been quiet when it came to NPD numbers, so Vita numbers are no real indication on how they are doing as a whole.

The Wii U sold more than the Vita, but 20K means nothing when it's the systems third month and just off a Holiday release. The fact that the system is losing developer support and we as the consumer/gamers know about it, is worrying. The fact this is the first time any home console has sold less than 60K in 3rd month is worrying.

The game delays are hurting the Wii U and the move from games being exclusive to Multi-platform is hurting it even more. Hell to tell the truth, if Nintendo wasn't publishing certain titles for the Wii U, I'm sure they would have went MP or something.

I love my Wii U and bought it for Pikmin 3 and have no doubt or regret for buying the system during it's launch period. But the sales, just the Vita's are sad to look at.



Terrible sales for the WiiU and abysmal sales for Vita. Clearly these 2 needs a price cut and a most importantly healthy release of games.

on the bright side. I am really happy with Ni no Kuni. Making it on top 10 individual sales. Hope you will have the legs so a sequel is imminent.



Yeah, I gotta admit the Wii U is sucking it up big time at the moment. Hopefully things pick up when there are actually games to buy!



The BuShA owns all!

Oh my goodness look at the Vita!... And the Wii U.... :/

Nintendo really needs to get some stuff rollin'. These sales are embarrassing.

I'd hate to see Iwata get fired over this. (Though he kinda annoys me in directs)

Nintendo has to absolutely blow away everything at E3 or they're gone.

It seems that either people hate Reggie or they hate Miyamoto... never heard of any dislike for Iwata!



I don't see a price cut effecting Nintendo like it helped Sony. Sonys price was especially high to start which Nintendo doesnt have

I just don't like how he drags his words. I know he's Japanese and all but can't you just hire a translator?
