Ouch Wii U :(



I doubt that any device will take the 3DS front spot this year, besides the PS4 during its launch week.
What the 3ds has for this year in Japan besides Yoshi, Smash Bros, Persona Q, Detective Pikachu, Zone of The Enders, Mario Golf?

Japan was the only reason Wii-U stayed above 100k ww last week. With such a massive drop, it could already drop below 50k ww this week. Right at the same level it was last year.

To be honest even Mario Kart can't save it now.

It never could. MK and other Mario games didn't help GC or N64 win their generations, what makes people think that Mario games would make Wii U come back into prominence this generation? Because lots of new people discovered Mario on Wii? People who only first discovered Mario on Wii are hardly the sort of people who are devoted to the franchise, and many of those people are probably only interested in one of the versions of Mario, either 2D, or 3D or Kart. This is why NSMBU and SM3DW haven't set the Wii U on fire.

If Wii U is going to be saved from being a monumental disappointment it's going to take something other than just Nintendo's mascot.

i dont like how people are saying, wii u will fail this year even though the year barley started. It's just Japan and consoles don't do so good over there anymore. I think Q1 will average out at 50k-75k per week WW.


You realize that 50-75k on average for the quarter is only 600-900k right? So you dont like people saying its a failure but you just said you think it will have failure sales. If it stayed at 75k a week on average (it wouldnt. it would slump each quarter. but lets say it does stay level) thats less than 6mil in the year. It would be 3mil behind GC (a failure of a comsole) at the same time.

Oh i completely agree, with saving i didn't mean it would suddenly sale like hotcakes. With saving i mean it would start selling ''ok'' and might have atleast a chance to beat the Gamecube, but even that seems hard with these kind of drops.
