So it should be close to 45,000 wii u's sold when the numbers come out tomorrow.

No, it said software sales were nearly quadrupled, not hardware.

Week ending August 18th, 2013, the Wii U software sold 34k. So we can expect the software to be around 136k this week. A nice little boost Hyrule Warrior gave it. Wonder how much the Wii U hardware will be. Probably around 20k

Subtract the usual MK8 and other minor sales, and that probably puts the Hyrule Sales at a little over 100k.
