Do people really think that if there weren't a 3DS version it would've sold much better? If anything the 3DS version was a brilliant move.

It did hurt it but not as much as people think. Especially looking at all wiiu games launch week. If 3ds version didn't exist, how much do people think SSBU would of sold? My guess is maybe 300k FW instead of 225k.

Edt: Though thats still not as good as i hoped. Also like i pointed out before, hopefully legs will make FW not lookas bad. like SM3DW (sold bad FW bu ended up not bad lifetime)

Smash did absolutely nothing to help the Wii U. That's just pathetic.

sold 2x+. Nothing at all

Compared to last year? Yeah, nothing.

Won bet with t3mporary_126 - I correctly predicted that the Wii U's LTD at the end of 2014 would be closer to 9 million than 10 million. http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=6673287

Not defending nintendo for not helping out the sales but this year doesn't look good because of the price and compared to last year bundle, its nowhere near as good.

Certainly, it does affect it, but it's banking a lot on 3DS, that's definitely the best alternative for Nintendo.

And, yeah, let's hope that holidays saves WiiU's honour. :p

Samurai Warriors Chronicle 3 sold 50% more on Vita than 3DS. Would be good news for future Vita projects if both figures weren't so poor.

RIP Dad 25/11/51 - 13/12/13. You will be missed but never forgotten.

I'm disappointed by those Smash WiiU numbers, both software and hardware!

Proud to be the first cool Nintendo fan ever

Number ONE Zelda fan in the Universe

DKCTF didn't move consoles

Prediction: No Zelda HD for Wii U, quietly moved to the succesor

Predictions for Nintendo NX and Mobile
