...... What the heck, did Plants vs. Zombies actually give the XB1 a bigger boost then Donkey Kong Country for the WiiU...

......

... people are morons. Buy a $500 console for a tablet game? I really hope WiiU can hold its ground against the XB1, this is embarrassing.


and if they cant?

Nintendo either adapts & evolves, or they become a niche console developer.......I really hope Nintendo adapts, some of their games are quite good.

so its safe to say DK didnt really do anything for Wii U...whats next?

Mario Kart, and that's usually the "killer app" for Nintendo systems. MK usually sells 1/3rd as many games as consoles

um no it doesnt, not sure where you are getting that. The only game in the series that even fits that description is MK Wii

since n64 mario kart sells around 25% of the total install base on consoles would have been better

Mario Kart Wii 34%
Double Dash 32%
MK 64 30%

Pretty consistent one third attach rate for  the console releases.

Still excellent ps4 numbers. Wii u needs a bloody miracle. Psv still underperforming.. Quite good psp Sales actually. Xbox one sees a slow but steady increase the closer we get to titanfall. Seems to be focused in us/uk only though. Still being ignored pretty much everywhere else in europe though



SMH at the X1 and WiiU camp coming from the woodwork. Good week, they come here to blah blah blah. And bad week they go into hiding. How about just realize where these sales coming from. The demand not met from PS4, X1 titanfall prehype, and Donkey Kong for the WiiU.

It's still the same story, PS4 is over 6 million with demand not met while the other two consoles are faltering.

MK64 sold more than DD, and the N64 sold slightly less than 33 million.  Don't know how 9.87/32.93 is "hardly 30%".
