Exactly... I dont see why people call mario kart 8 a fail or something like that! It is the first sign of hope for a console that is considered dead by most people.
Maybe smash will be the next thing that helps out a lot and then we still have the strong lineup of 2015....
I know that the wii u isnt the next big thing, but it can only get better from now on, right?

i agree that it did it's job (and did it well) but some people in here were a bit overexcited.
To be honest i was just bored and looking for something i could bump and this was the best i could find.

But i expect WiiU to stay around 100.000 for minimum, and when the other big titles hit mayby (if all go well) it will go up to 150.000 - 200.000 every week.. And like me sig says.. I fully believe WiiU will be back as leading console in 2015.. |

Sure! Hoping that MK8 alone would triple or quadruple the WiiU's baseline was kinda silly if you ask me...

The Wii U is still the best selling Nintendo home-console right now!
“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

Lol what an accomplishment.

Amen brother

WiiU guys are going to have to just settle for last place. I don't know how anyone expected Mario Kart to move WiiU into first anyway. It's done some things for the console but how long can a single game's effect on sales last?

Yeah? Well whent he lead is at 96-100k that 60k can't possibly be "what matters the most".
