I dont think wii u is overtracked by much weekly I mean mario kart still conitnues to sell well in japan,us, and main countries in eu
I think its right where it is

Well, in Japan Wii U hardware sales have basically returned to about where they were before MK8 despite it having decent legs.  In the US Mario Kart and Wii U sales dropped off quite a bit in August.  VGC is still high on both of those compared to NPD.  As for Europe we don't really have much in the way of recent actual sales information.  All we know over the last month is that it has been charting around the 20's in the UK and Germany.  It is probably higher in France, but we only get a top 5 there.

Well it was overtracked in the US last month, both WiiU and MK.

We already know it's overtracked globally by at least 250-300k as of the end of June. Nobody knows how much it's overtracked right now, weekly, but I'm willing to bet it will be adjusted down soon after Nintendo's next quarterly report.

Scraping the Barrell??? Hmmmm sounds like a topic you truly aren't happy with. Like come on man sales and comparisons is what we discuss here on vg chartz. 

You're scraping the barrel when you compare 2nd place and 3rd place consoles, that's why no one has ever compared the 360 to the ps3.

You don't understand my comment. Before the release of current consoles certain users on here would create threads comparing the 360 versus the PS3 all the time. Now that the PS4 has a substantial lead in every teritory, the PS4 has now been omitted from certain sales threads and instead we get ridiculous threads about a couple of thousand units in sales from the two disaster consoles. 

Why has PS4 been omitted from this thread? Surely it would be more informative to include and compare all current gen home consoles to get a better overview of the current sales situation?


So you just want Threads who bash every other console accept Sony. Great job. Go make another Sony is smashing Xbox one thread. Threads go with what is relevant. So yes as time changes the threads will change too. Stop living in the past man.

How is living in the past wanting all current gen consoles compared to each other isntead of just two? Just because PS4 is making an embarrassment of the other two doesn't mean it isn't relevant to sales threads. Stop living under a rock man.

So how is a thread about Wii U and Xbox One a invite for you to start bashing Xbox One? You just said it's current gen. However it's the first year home boy, 90% have not bought in yet. Yes PS4 is doing great but you wouldn't want to see the price of A ps5 with out both other consoles, so if I where you, i would get off my high horse. How is millions of sales Embarrassing. Xbox One is still looking strong, no matter the bad launch year. The games coming up are incredible and to write off this gen as a win already is counting your chickens before they hatch. Don't get me wrong PS4 has been killing it, however anything can happen and will. You're talking about MS, they can make big moves and quick.

They haven't actually shown that in the console space though.

Well I think 360 was that big move, XOne was a step back, which they should have seen coming.  What would you consider a big move? Buying EA? 

360 did everything, including getting 3rd party support.

Big moves and quick? I don't see an entire generation of 2nd/3rd place battle with Sony's biggest console blunder as being a big and quick move. Sony fucked up last gen and managed a virtual tie with XBox but now they did not fuck up (they did almost everything right), with XB doing worse than last generation. The gap is currently ~5.5m and growing, will likely be almost 10m by the end of the year and early next year is looking like a massacre with all the PS4 games coming out plus PS always doing better in that time of year. MS has already made several big moves that have proven ineffective for the most part because while their moves can increase X1 sales somewhat for a while, they are so incredibly far off the PS4 sales that it doesn't matter in the grand scheme.

Edit: Having said that, this really isn't the time and place for this discussion. I'm not sure why Maverick insists on PS4 being added to the thread.

"Well it was overtracked in the US last month, both WiiU and MK."

Also, consistent overtracking globally without adjustments suggests that the overtracking is ongoing
