Here in the states it should get a nice 2-3 week boost then right as sales start dropping, here comes Luigi U with another nice little boost, then 3 weeks later W101 comes along and gives another little boost, October rolls around and Wind Waker, Sonic, Party U give another nice bump. Then we have the holidays and DKC, 3D World, Fit U plus plenty of holiday deals. I see Wii U having astrong showing the rest of the year.

W101 will be release on the week of GTA, so no.

That game will sell huge but I dont imagine those games having much of the same userbase. Different consoles, different genre, different market, I dont see GTA affecting W101

GTAV is as yet not coming to Wii U, thus W101, for some Wii U owners anyway, will be a bigger deal.
