Ok, I thought that was a lot worse than it was lol.

So when do we find out the WW numbers? I was more interested in that.

Can't get much worse than 60k on the back of the biggest launch of the year.

sadly i agree

this is the nail in the coffin for wii u

for doing so well software wise it didnt do anything hw wise



It did..? Just two days on the market.. and it almost doubled that week.. Meaning if WiiU can keep the momentum next month.. it will go up x4 or x5 in sales.. just based on trends.. But i espect more than that.. even higer sales becourse of more and more casuals are playing Mario Kart 8.. It will start a chain reaction.. :)

Well anyone who thought NA was going to see a much larger improvement than that was a fool. I actually thought that was impressive after learning it was just NA lol. I was expecting Xbone to handily beat WiiU in the NA region but be edged out WW. I would think WW numbers are more important than just one region right?


Lol says the guy who was hyping up the Wii U boost

You even made a thread discussing VGC sales for the Mario Kart week.  Why would you think 60k is impressive for just NA for the month when VGC showed it at 78k for just one week in the US?

So is this the end of the road for Iwata? He probably had put MK8 at the end of May so that he could impress investors with some big sales announcement but that obviously didn't happen looking at May npd data...

The shareholders are voting on him this month. Iwata better start praying. 


yeah i bet this wont end well for him

They will have access to better data beyond 2 days so we probably need to wait and see.
