Im not going to say this is WiiU peak year, btf just because 2 of the biggest console franchise released this year doesn't warrant it is its peak. Nintendo didn't even try this holiday at all in terms of pushing HW and this is the result (just looking at US+Japan). I meana LoZ+Starfox next holiday with a huge price cut can swing things around. Also WiiU lineup next year looks way more solid than this years, as 2014 had 3 major games (500k+ sellers) vs next year which has potentially alot more :)

Did you seriously list Star Fox as a possible system-seller for next year? O.o

Frankly, I don't see Zelda doing much. Skyward Sword performed moderately at best given the popularity of the Wii and the franchise's own standard, plus A Link Between Worlds dropped off really quickly and its sales left so much to be desired, especially considering how acclaimed it was. I really think Animal Crossing is NIntendo's remaining only hope for a really big release.


I didn't mean as an actually system seller, im talking about a hard push like What MS just did with the X1 (had Haloa remake, and many others with good bundles, etc for that huge push)

It looks like both consoles sold 1.2m:

US+UK I guess. If Microsoft and/or Sony sold more than 1 million in 1 month in 1 market they would make a PR statement about it. And Microsoft already used US+UK in their PR statement for this month.

I think it will be close between nintendo and sony since ps4 sold amazing with pratically no pricecut

and amiibos sold like 700k in 2 weeks plus smash

itll be close

SSBU+ SSB 3DS+ORAS all which are 1st Party Games (meaning more profits :0)

3rd party PS games probably outsold them by atleast 10:1 so platform royalties should still outmatch whatever Nintendo made from that, plus Sony didn't have to pay anything to produce those games unlike Nintendo.

you sure they arent losing money because gta V plus a 50 dollar last of us remastered equals $110

and that makes it 290

oh well lets be happy both will have huge profits :)

VGC had Wii U at 243k for the final week of November in North America alone. Holy overtrack! Wonder how far off (if at all) the X1 and PS4 are. 

lol This site's tracking formula really needs some changes...

So Pokemon is undertracked or Halo is overtracked, based on software NPD, if both Pokemon are over 800k, then at least undertracked by 200k

1.5mil Sold ORAS

Includes digital. So around 700k retail for each

Holy crap at that X1 number if true, wow. 



I don't believe that 7-10k difference.

Don't you think if MSFT would have sold  1 million+ they would have talked about it.


agreed. XB1 is over tracked on here by like 500k for November alone. It's a bad month tracking wise. Wii U also badly off.
