Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Wii U Bundle Is Sold Out At Target And GameStop

I said all along Wii U will come good eventually, didnt think it would take as long as it has though. Not getting too carried away but things are moving in the right direction.

This can't be, someone told me in another thread that NSMBU doesn't sell consoles! You have to remove that image right away!

Like Seece said though; how much stock is there? The Wii U is still being retailed from the initial shipment from about a year ago, I doubt Nintendo sent them a huge amount since so few retailers have faith in the ability for this machine to move from shelves.



Well the bundle manage'd to sell 36000 in Japan, pretty good considering Japan is focused on handhelds, and the fact the last Wii U sales was 2600, imagine how the bundle will do in in the U.S and Europe.

It's going to be smooth sailing from here on out. :)


Good thing your woman made the effort to get one early. I hope you learned your lesson for doubting her.



All this optimism disturbs me...
Something must be wrong...
I too would like to know the shipments...



Have a nice day...

It`s great news.
Even if the initial stock wasn`t high, it at least gives retailers confidence to up the orders.

This goes along well with the news that buy.com sold on ebay 1486 in about a hour`s time.
So, retailers could have had a good number of them for sale and it shows that demand really is there.

It is the new bundle that will replace the Nintendo Land one. So it is the main bundle going now which means that it should have decent supply!



Don't get your hopes up people. Stock has been low all year. Some retailers have even sent back some of their stock! So stelling out, while still preferable, does not equate to much.



If the LoZ bundle was an indicator of life for Wii U in NA, I doubt Nintendo would have few of this new bundle. We'll see.

Ah, you are one funny guy. Very funny. Taking something I said in response to you stating that the wiiU tanked even with nsmbu and putting it completly out of context. I could come up and say something similar to you: This can't be, someone told me in another thread that wiiU would sell 12million units lifetime! 

Anyways, I definetly said that nsmbu as a stand alone game is not a system seller which still stands true today. A 2D platformer will never move tons of consoles. As I said in that other thread, 3D mario games move systems, nsmbu will sell proportionally to what the wiiU will sell. Now, nsmbu is in a bundle with the addition of nslu and people are also aware that a new 3D mario game is coming in a matter of 2weeks. Just keep that all in mind, and then see if your post was even revelant. 

Also, while im at it, can you answer my question that I had asked you in that other thread, why do you think wiiU will only sell 12million units lifetime? 



Predictions for LT console sales:

PS4: 120M

XB1: 70M

WiiU: 14M

3DS: 60M

Vita: 13M
