Forums - Nintendo - Predict Wii U sales for the week ending 22nd (today!) and 29th!

 

How will this effect Wii U?

We'll see a bump in sale... 27 50.00%
 
We'll see increased sale... 17 31.48%
 
This will save Wii U! 3 5.56%
 
Wii U is still d00med 4 7.41%
 
We need Mario! 3 5.56%
 
Total:54

So, Wii U sales have been pretty stale and painfully low. Some argue it's because of the price tag, and some argue it's the lack of games - while others argue it's both these reasons.

This week we've seen 3 high profile games release for the Wii U; Lego City Undercover, Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate and Need for Speed: Most Wanted U - but how will these games effect the weekly sales? Will we see a bump in the sales, will they stay as flat or is this the turning point for Wii U?

What do you think? Will we see better sales, and for how long?

Me, I wouldn't be surprised if we saw sales going up 20k this and next week. Is that too low of a prediction? Too high?

Sound of VGC!

What? For this week alone? Or the week ending on the 29th?

I think I go with a little bump, although half my friendlist was playing MH3U tonight. But point is, they already had a WiiU.

38k both weeks than pretty much stable!



Switch!!!

I think we may see a significant increase. I'm going to say 35-40k total, though some of the bundles and sales going around may push things up more. 45-50k would be excellent. The only thing is, the new games only really affect the west. Japan will still be low until DQX on the 30th. But I do think we have seen the bottom. And it wasn't pretty.



This week- 43k
Next week- 35k

Though of course the tracking will most likely be off so we won't know for certain until NPD.



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

MH week.

MH3U has already been released in Japan, so why would we see such increases in the West?

Are those numbers the increase you're expecting, or the total numbers HW that will sell?
