Isnt a potential 100K overtracking 2 months ago something that would correct itself over time?


Depends if he overtracked/undertracked after june.  What we know is through june is overtracked.  After that we dont know until the next shipment numbers

We'll get the next shipped numbers by the 30th (right?) so that people can get back to reality.

No way is the Wii U overtracked. The numbers are right there in the OP, VGC's estimates are lower than Nintendo's sales numbers. If anything, it is undertracked.

Nintendo's shipped numbers...SHIPPED

He's joking, don't worry.

Also a fair few stores around here have no Wii U's in stock. It's all "order one in to buy"


really?seece must saw this!uk isnt the best nintendo market,so imagine in other countries...!your comment cone could be  a great argument against the overtracking claimings,at least for me( i believe that wii u has been nearly sold out)



So the 200k PS4 is short on the adjustments was accidently added to the Wii U is all. lol

Are people saying that the U is only overtracked in August? I'm not sure I completely understand the data and conclusion.

Ah, I did July 30th instead of June 30th.  Well that was solely used to get the ratio of Japan to Worldwide sales and it didn't fluctuate much over the month of July so I doubt it was much different in June.  Basically whatever the ratio of sales VGC shows for Japan to Worldwide weekly sales in the month of the shipment data released (June in this instance) should be what global stock is based on and therefore the difference between shipped and Userbase should have the same ratio.  If you then know the stock in Japan using Nintendo's shippped data by region compared to the sales data given by Famitsu and Media Create you can extrapolate out what the worldwide stock should be.

it's at least overtracked by 400k or 500k probably more.



Bet reminder: I bet with Tboned51 that Splatoon won't reach the 1 million shipped mark by the end of 2015. I win if he loses and I lose if I lost.

Well, not really. It's just anecdotal evidence and the Wii U is overtracked, that much we know is true.



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

having 400k - 500k available is nothing special lol don't forget the wii U is available worldwide. The difference between shipement and sold last gen was almost always above 1million (and if it wasn't people went crazy with overtrack threads) Unless you think most shops stop carying wii Us I don't see the problem here
