I really think that's pretty much the nail in the coffin for the Wii U outselling the GameCube ... if MK8 can't gain them ground on the GCN, then it's really a lost cause.

Wii U: June 2014 (144k) + July (83k) = 227k

GameCube: June 2003 (124k) + July 2003 (126k) = 250k

And the GameCube had no real notable releases in this period. It means Nintendo basically gained no ground on the GameCube in the US despite releasing MK8.

I guess August 2014 for Wii U will be back into the ugly 60-70k (maybe 75k?) range.

Why are MS so silent about their NPD numbers this gen? They were so vocal last gen ...

Not only that but they were praised by certain people for being open about their numbers at the beginning of the generation even though they were losing. It was suggested that Sony should learn from them. Weird how now that they've stopped sharing their numbers people who praised them don't have anything to say about that.  Very weird

Well the people who praised them are nowhere to be found in NPD threads these days.
