Forums - Nintendo Discussion - How Much Do You Think Wii U Will Sell January 2014?

fatslob-:O on 19 December 2013

Well since SM3DW flopped for the most part I expect the WII U to do around 120K for January in total.

150k??

Where are all these 380k figures coming from? It's just done 220k in Nov, I don't see it matching the 57k from January NPD this year, and Europe is even lower than that.

Week ending 5th isn't really this year, it's counted as last year at least in NPD and Charttrack.

What do you mean by "January" are you including the week ending the 5th from last year.

If that's the case, it sold 244K January 2013.

Next month, I expect about 145K

No, I'm not. I count that as 2012.

Pretty sure we're talking about WW here.  Last year WW was about 250K and November was about 450K.


I think the Wii U will have some nice momentum coming out of the holidays.  Advertising has picked up + word of mouth sales.   The key will be how Nintendo markets Wii Fit U.  If they market that well, we could see around 350K.  However, Nintendo hasn't been advertising their casual titles well at all lately, so I'm going to say 240K.

That's equal to 190k.

Yeah I'm talking WW as well, it was 150k! January NPD was 57k.

You're expecting a January that's on par with this past November, but fair enough. Not long to wait for results!

I'm assuming you're counting the week ending the 4th as 2013 and the week ending Feb 1st January then. it will have the weeks ending the 11th, 18th, 25th, and 1st.

 

80K is my prediction then.
