40K~ in Japan for DKC?.. Damn... After the critical and sales success that DKCR was, I expected this to at least do somewhat good, but that's just terrible. I really thought this game could at least help the Wii-U somewhat during the PS4 launch, but it's not even going to help the Wii-U hold a candle to it. Sad to say it, but it probably won't do much better in the US. I'd say 20% hardware boost at best. MK8 and SSB, it's on you guys now.

I don't care about hardware boost. If 150k Wii U owners can't be bothered to pick this up, f*ck the Wii U audience. Seriously. Screw them and screw Iwata for driving Nintendo's franchises into the gutter with his mismanagement.

Retro and this game deserve better. 

damn you sound like a bitter girl who just got cheated on and dumped.

only anwser find something to frak real hard, PS4 avaits! you show em!!

Based on WiiU sales following the release of Pikmin 3, the current rate of sale, and factoring in the relative popularity of Donkey Kong, I'll say 30%, or around 87k.

WW bump of 4k, so looks like a very small bump for the US.

I'd pick 15%, so I picked 10%.

The numbers were posted?

OT: Crap, I picked 20% in the Poll thinking what others have said. I would've gone for 10% had I actually read into your OP a little more. Anywho, yeah, it won't boost it too much. Although hopefully it'll be up YoY.
