Forums - Sales - NPD: Wedbush Says Wii U Sold Around 55,000 Units In September

mii-gamer on 15 October 2013

Still poor numbers - October is going to be much better. Hopefully, Nintendo can sustain small increment growth with the wii u from this point

Weird that they woiuld title their charts "USA" then. BTW - its 65,474 for september unless this NPD has 5 weeks... then more

all I expect is the Wii U to turn around, not to sell like crazy from one month to the next one. I wish that though.

September is 5 weeks. September 1 - Oct 5.

VGChartz has 100,666 units

This is bad, then again, it happened more then once that Wedbush was wrong. To be honnest, I'm expecting around 70-75k which would still make it overtracked by 25k. Very sad, I wonder which weeks were overtracked and by how much. Also, does NPD include oct 1-5th in it's tracking?



Predictions for LT console sales:

PS4: 120M

XB1: 70M

WiiU: 14M

3DS: 60M

Vita: 13M

Yeah, Wedbush is just estimating so it doesn't mean Wii U will be that much overtracked. Also, yeah september this year was 5 weeks

We've seen VGC doing a lot lot worse. 8k isn't that bad considering VGC reputation.

What reputation ? (Does this site have a bad reputation for tracking sales or what ?)

yes



Bet reminder: I bet with Tboned51 that Splatoon won't reach the 1 million shipped mark by the end of 2015. I win if he loses and I lose if I lost.

It will probably do better. However, one of the bigger game launches of this month will be in September and October will be 4 weeks so I don't think it will be by much. I think Wedbush is underestimating the Wii U's sales. 11k a week with price drop and big game? Naw, probably at least 15k a week with the last 3 weeks being at least 20k and the other two weeks being under 5k.
