Just noticed they've actually had negative Wii U shipments outside of the Americas/Japan over the last six months.

The phasing out of the Basic model?

So does this include Monster Hunter and Pokemon sales in the 200m operating lose?

It includes Monster Hunter's first couple weeks. It does not include Pokemon at all.

Well, it includes Pokemon's developments costs, and none of the profits made from selling the game.

This is up Sept 30th.  So about 2 weeks of MH4 and no Pokemon.

Monster Hunter yes - Pokemon no

Monster Hunter is a third-party title = less profit (5-7$ per unit)

Pokemon is a first-party titles = more profit (28-30$ per unit)

Not exactly, it includes the last three months worth of development cost, but I highly doubt Pokemon was written in 3 months.

is that how the sales goes? also dont forget MH is $50 (i think) cuz its higher in yen than pokemon i noticed!

Do you kno exactly how much each game makes for nintendo? If thats accurate MH4 made them some good money and pokemon at least made them  (if i count just $20 each) over $100mil! 



It's interesting to see Nintendo dropping two of their strongest casual games Ip's Wii party U and Wii Fit U right before the holiday. If advertised properly we may see a boost from those two games. However if casuals don't start adopting the Wii U anytime soon I could see those developers moving onto some core Ip's and Nintendo attempt to follow a similar trajectory as the GameCube; lots of core games, less casual, dedicated to the Nintendo fanbase.

True.
