MK8, basically only managed to attract fans of Nintendo and becausee of this, it moves very little hardware. Yes, it will sell over time, but this second month of sales with Mario kart, was too weak for the Wii U. 83K is a very low number, no matter what. I am beginning to think that the Wii U will be the first Nintendo console that not reach the 10 million units sold in the USA.

If you had to pick top 10 dumbest gaming articles ever, i wouldn't be surprised if Polygon had half in there :0

Where is Toastboy and his thing about X1 rocking in the games department? Because I have something for him:

* PlayStation 4 games accounted for more than half of total next generation software sales.

hey! I do can maths! And triple checked I did!

That's actually pretty close. Im confident it can still pass it, though I'm not interested in debating it now.

I mean that most of those numbers are based on a random "20% up from last month" or "total sales 50% up from last year" etc, all of which inherently add to error margins due to rounding. We can't state them as 83k or 80k with much confidence. 

I checked, you are correct.

eh
wii U needs a price cut.

That's not good, it should be considerably above the GCN for this time period considering the GCN had no big games released for the comparable stretch. The fact that they can't even gain ground with MK8 vs. nothing for the GCN is fairly disheartening I would say. They're not catching the GameCube, there's no way.

This is like a race between two people where one guy is sprinting as hard as he can and the other guy is just casually jogging, and the sprinting guy still manages to lose. That's not good. 

Oh, even this time PS4 number will be revealed to the 4:00 ??? pff... -_-"
