With the new charts up, it just reached 6 million. It may not be doing the best, but it keeps on going. Gamers are really loving it.

Go Wii U!!!

The Wii U is actually on 5,969,313 and the front page figure is rounded up to 6.0m I think

Lol. Deja vu, Mr. Joe?

Great news! Now just two more million and it will push past the Dreamcast and make me breath a small sigh of relief.

Err...the Dreamcast is at 10.6 million. The Dreamcast was released in late November of 1998 in Japan and was discontinued in January of 2001. 26 months, give or take, on the market in Japan and 17 months on the market everywhere else. The Wii U is clearly tracking behind the Dreamcast. (Interestingly, the Saturn sold 6 million in Japan.).

If we are generous and give the Wii U 26 months to catch the Dreamcast, that puts it at January of 2015. Will it reach 10.6 million by then?

Yay!

But just being a party pooper, let´s see if Mario Kart and the rest will at least get the system to surpass the GC in the end.

Not good, actually, but at least we´re seeing that Nintendo won´t drop support for the system soon, so even if it don´t reach GC lifetime sales numbers - what would be great in today´s struggling market - we can be sure that there will be plenty of excellent games to check.
