Remember this week was before e3 

E3 is not going to increase the baseline for the Wii U or any other console. Software will and until the Wii U gets more releases, sales will once again slide down.

so hyrule warriors(wont do anything except japan)

bayonetta 2 will do a little boost in NA abd EU and a ok boost in Japan

Toad no idea

Smash will be the biggest booster since its an anticipated holiday game

well this wont end well :P

Yeah that sounds about right. I think the Wii U will do pretty good in the holidays though but I don't think there is enough to push people to buy a Wii U outside the holiday season. So I'm optimisstic about the holidays but I am expecting the worst for the next couple of months.


I think if they do a strong bayonetta 2 and smash bros campaign then it could be a little better :)

The Wii U is not suddenly going to sell on average ~50k more per week than it did before MK8 just because of that one game, this weeks numbers are still higher because it's MK8s second week. Wii U sales are gonna drop further next week.


Remember this week was before e3 

E3 itself has never boosted a systems sales.



OfficerRaichu15 said:

I guess so :)

Even the DS and PSP sturggled at about 100k average in their first year. 360 was still less than 100k in its second year. Anything can happen.

Tomodachi Life and Persona Q.

Tomodachi (west) + PQ (japan)


I wouldn't say it's anything to do with Tomodachi.  The Persona Q bundle in Japan boosted 3DS sales by like 13k according to Media Create.

There is a limit on how optimistic you can be... I think that is slightly over it...

Vita got adjusted up to 35k the week of the bundle in the USA (making it #2 in hardware for that week):

PSV 35,026 (+2,901%) 1,776,310

If only we could've celebrated it in the thread where it actually happened.

But no.  2k/week continued.

Sigh.  At least it's changed now!
