Wii U tracking below 2013 sales. Do you see sub 20k sales for Wii U incoming?


Hmm ... this January may be as bad as last year but i think we won't see any sub 20k weeks anymore with the software coming this year. Last year was unnacceptable and Nintnedo on has itself to blame for the position the Wii U is in

Wasnt last years Jan Wii U numbers within the launch window?? if so im not surprised it is tracking below. I think Feb-August are key months that the Wii U has to beat out 2013 numbers.

And there goes the Wii U... again. The Holiday gave some people definite false hope.

But ... but, no one is buying XOnes, they are getting dust on the shelves every where.

OT: I will wait for the adjustments. And again, rest of the world sales for PS4 are insane ilogical.Just check NeoGaf for the situation in Norway, Australia, India... Brazil, our friend @ethomaz might have some words.

I am totally in agreement with you. It's just that some people are very unrealistic and expect miracles. The Wii U is never going to set the world alight so based on what was before and what is now I think it is doing great. 

If it can keep close to the 100k mark for a while that will be an achievement for a console where 25K - 30K was the norm not that long ago.

It's all relative.

If the Wii U can keep up 100'000 units weekly I'll be both surprised and well, surprised. You're right, though. Thinking the Wii U will somehow perform some magic trick and transform into a console that actually sells well is a sad dream.

Once Mario Kart 8 comes around, then I'll start my actual predictions.

So much for those nintendo fans who predicted wii-u doing big numbers this quarter, system is in real trouble.

Soon people will realize that the holidays & children in need of gifts had more to do with the increase in sales then the release of SM3DL did.

PS4 even beat 3DS this week !!



Predictions for end of 2014 HW sales:

 PS4: 17m   XB1: 10m    WiiU: 10m   Vita: 10m

after the last adjustments( +300k), do you deny that PS4 is massively undertracked on VGC ?

I think both the PS4 and ONE will begin to look quite average in Europe soon.

uh oh....

Huh? PS4 is this week almost triple One and you think they'll both look "average". Either one is average and the other really bad or one is average and the other really good. 

Yeah, one will look avareg and the other really bad is more correct.

ONE needs to release everywhere soon.

PS4 needs Iceland asap.

More like Iceland needs PS4

Less than 3 weeks to go! I wonder if it'll sell out.

They're selling Ones here, btw, so it has released in more than 13 countries!


it would be a shame if it didnt, being that there is only like 8 people that live in Iceland

Xbox starts to take US, PS4 dominates Europe.

Need to get that ONE released in the rest of Europe.


1 week a small lead because sony has limited supple = x1 taking US? No.


Actually for US the PS4 has sold ahead of X1 for just 1 week since X1's release. 

Yup, you can't sell what is already sold out.  Microsft is banking on people buying the in stock Xbone becaue they don't want to wait to get a PS4 when they come back in stock.  The stratagy might be working on some, but when Sony get's healthy stock on the shelves it's going to be off to the races.
