With respect to “Wii U,” “New Super Luigi U,” which is add-on content for “New Super Mario Bros. U” released
simultaneously with the “Wii U” hardware last year, was released, and “Game & Wario,” released in Japan in March,
was released overseas. The worldwide sales of “Wii U” hardware and software were 0.16 million units and 1.03 million
units respectively mainly due to the release of few key first-party titles this quarter to strongly drive the hardware sales.
Regarding “Nintendo DS” (DS, DS Lite, DSi and DSi XL), the worldwide sales of its hardware and software were 0.06
million units and 2.15 million units respectively. Also, the sales of the “Wii” hardware and software were 0.21 million
units and 3.67 million units respectively worldwid

90k from Japan
60k from North America
10k from Other

These numbers are completely irrelevant unless you have the actual sales figures as well, which still shows over 12 weeks supply. So if anything, this shows that we are under tracking the Wii U.

The Wii U was overshipped, and this is making up for it. It's still disastrous, but without putting sales figures there it means actually very little. Unless you're trying to say that the Wii U sold below 10k in 3 months outside of Japan and America, of course.



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

LOL is this the first time someone has shouted SHIPPED not SOLD, and meant it in a positive way :)

Its selling so bad that they can't even get through previous shipments.

Yes. But because they won't shut down production lines, I don't think we really need to worry about that.

It's obvious that Wii U "sold" more, but these shipments are. not acceptable. I don't remember a worse quarter in memory..

More importantly, 2.4m 3DS's. That's quite good and up 30% over last year! Software is up by almost 50% as well. Good results.
