Holiday approaching, all hardware (except vita) is seeing some grow, thankfully wiiu sees the most. Besides, was not last week when the expansion pack of DQX came out in japan? And where is Zelda 3DS?



"Hardware design isn’t about making the most powerful thing you can.
Today most hardware design is left to other companies, but when you make hardware without taking into account the needs of the eventual software developers, you end up with bloated hardware full of pointless excess. From the outset one must consider design from both a hardware and software perspective."

Didn't expect Wii U to go up. Pretty decent performance considering where it were some weeks ago.

weird Mario world has been been at japanese Amazon on place 5 for the most time and Final Fantasy has been behind Mario. Right now Mario is on place 6 and Final Fantasy on place 42 on Amazon.

 

Even both wii u bundles are now in front of Finaly Fantasy

Npd in a week, that will make or break the doom threads for the wiiu.

Good numbers for 3ds. So 100 k for japan, a possible 250k for europe if it is up on last week, and bf numbers in north america. Could be a 1m week when all is said and done. We need nintendo to announce some numbers!

Cmom, you know this is not true. Even if it sells 900K(lol), people will still brag about "PS4 double, nintendead"
