unfortunately it's only going to get worse if they keep their two consoles as their main weapons..

PS4 and XBOX one will continue to grow in popularity/support.. while tablets/smartphones start to eat away at the handheld gaming world.. in fact it might become it.. eventually.. I am seeing so many kids with ipads and touch devices and so little with PS/Nintendo handhelds

Wii U is an utter disaster.

Seriously, nothing can save it. Not even Mario Kart.

Damn Nintendo overtracked all over the place. We just need confirmation of WiiU numbers. At least it beat Pachter's prediction.

Told you in that message :(

I'll risk myself but, I honestly think Wii U is the next Dreamcast. These are TERRIBLE, PATHETIC numbers. No spin to it.

Honestly, that's no longer considered a risk...

Both the Wii U and Vita are already on life support with almost no chance of recovering.

By my maths that puts wii u at 288K...did i do something wrong here?

220k?

I was using VGChartz October numbers...still waiting on a link that confirms Wii U 50K for October (probably bumping around somewhere, I just havent seen it)

leo-j said:
you guys.. 340 percent times 50k is 170k.. not 220k...

340 percent increase...increase is the operative word (think about it, 100% increase is 50K*2.00, not 50K*1.00)

No risk there..if I'm not mistaken this is worse..way worse than Dreamcast levels

Nope, the grpah states that dreamcast did'n break 200K in his firs november. GC breaked 400K tough.

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."

Good job VGC with the 360 number. Xb one should have been really close to correct given MS released figures.

PS4 figure should be pretty much right too, given we know the global launch number, more or less, and the opening week number for Nth America and the global LTD as at 30 Nov.
