By the way, PS4 owners don´t have much to play by now considering platformers, then they are playing Knack.

Yes because Wii U owners are just swarming in releases.

Notable platformers that Wii U owners have to choose from: New Super Mario Bros U, New Super Luigi U, Rayman Legends, Sonic Lost World, Epic Mickey 2, plus a heap of eShop platformers, and now SM3DW.

Notable platformers that PS4 owners have to choose from: Knack.

If you have a look at Chart-Track's Wii U chart, you'll find that the top for Wii U games are ALL platformers - SM3DW, NSMBU, NSLU, and Rayman Legends.

Also, Knack is part of one of PS4's bundles (here). Super Mario 3D World is not in a Wii U bundle (yet).

What was this then? It may be sold out now, but so is the Knack PS4 bundle :p

*reads article*

Batman: Arkham Oranges???? LMAO.

Anyway, OT: Mario is not known for strong 1st weeks, but being outsold by Knack is still pretty lame. It says a lot about the WiiU's situation in the UK. I mean, PS4 has already outsold it and it just came out.



No troll is too much for me to handle. I rehabilitate trolls, I train people. I am the Troll Whisperer.

Even as a Sony fanboy, that is a little sad that a game so much more superior than Knack can't outsell it. I think Mario 3D worlds will have much better legs, but its still pretty sad.

Where is the Mario love, Wii U owners?

lol at this. but mario will easily outsell it soon. life time sales wont be even close



you simple cannot compare the two, Knack looks like a decent game, but definitely not the game to justify Ps4, looks fun, but that's it, it will drop off really fast, so who cares really

let's compare Knack and Mario sales after 2 years :P



don't mind my username, that was more than 10 years ago, I'm a different person now, amazing how people change ^_^

New Super Mario Bros U and New Super Luigi U is pretty much the same game, this is the wii u's flag ship title for the holidays, it should not be outsold by knack

"Nintendo UK has announced a new Mario-themed Wii U bundle for sale on 29th November via its online store."

How many regular people do you think are going to be buying a Wii U from Nintendo's online store? Not to mention, there's no reason to assume that Chart-Track would be tracking Nintendo's online store.



Man, I don't know what's worse, the terrible Mario sales or the terrible ps4 users taste.
Anyway, debut at 14, flop. Flopping everywhere and it's moving like almost zero consoles.
At least when we get the real 3d Mario and Zelda we will have accepted the thruth and won't expect to move consoles.



Proud to be the first cool Nintendo fan ever

Number ONE Zelda fan in the Universe

DKCTF didn't move consoles

Prediction: No Zelda HD for Wii U, quietly moved to the succesor

Predictions for Nintendo NX and Mobile
