Seems gamers just aren't that into Xbox One. The summer months are always lacking so it's treat to see PS4 actually back over 100k given that. MK8 doesn't seem to have done much for WiiU either.


Are you joking or are you just stupid?! MK8 did a huge amount for Wii U. It got Wii U to be in the top behind PS4 and 3DS. It seems to have helped the Wii h get a new baseline at around 50k unless it drops below 45k next week. It is raising awareness for the Wii U.

I know some don't like using Amazon as reference, but July's Xbox One numbers are gonna be pretty bad if the trend echos across other retailers.

Next week is going to interesting to see if XB1 and Wii U drop even morw.

i dont think they will drop that much

XB1 will drop while Wii U will stay at like 45 or 50k.

i predict 48 or 49k but who knows it could go up or just drop off like the titanic


The reason I say the Wii U wont drop is because it did not drop this week by much. Why would it drop back to sub 40k or sub 30k numbers after being at 50k for two weeks. XB1 dropped from last week but wont drop much next week. I say between 5 to 10k.

If it keeps it at 50k until hyrule warriors comes out then that will be great. I predict hyrule warriors to increase Japan sales to like 35k.

you have a good point if this is true then the wii u could be at a new baseline(a lot better than 30k) and have a consistenly selling game(mk8 its got like almost 100k and its in its 5th week on a console considered dead)

I honestly did not expect MK8 to sell this good. EA Sports UFC came out the week of June 21 and MK8 is only doing 3k less than it in US being a month old.

Eh.. What can I say, the WiiU's new 50k baseline is better than the old 30k baseline, that's for sure!

Mario Kart did a lot for the wii u. 

I know. That's kinda my point. In a very backward sort of way lol.
