The sales aren't good but being flat or have a small boost isn't getting worse and worse....

Do not wonder for anything,Nintendo isnt' abandoning wii u,read some interviews...!


I persoanlly think with both MK8 and Smash out this year it should be doing a lot better. To me this is it's peak year. I think the numbers are shocking bad. And it doesn't feel real considering the numbers the Wii did last gen. Nintendo went from the best possible sales for their home console to the worst possible. 

Whether it's the peak year comes down to other factors I think.  This year Nintendo had to make up for the first part being absolutely abysmal.  They also had to turn profit.  Nintendo couldn't go all suicidal with ther pricecuts and bundles like MS (who will probably not make a penny this year from the Xbox division this year and the Xbox division probably won't make up for said losses next year either).  Next year they can play a bit more lose with that; I predict a price drop by the summer and a smash bundle early in 2015 probably to accompany it.  Baseline should be higher etc.  But it really comes down to other factors like marketing and so on.  Plus some of the games in 2015 do target a different demographic from the games currently released, so that could help.  It will be an interesting year.  The high attachrate for the current library is good for Nintendo though in terms of profits.

driveclub sold mostly in the EU and it's digital sales are strong. Not surprise by  the overtracking on here and that's last months news just so you know. 

GTA 5 and The Last of US sold 340k copies from the bundle alone. Meaning both games are under tracked on here by a good bit for November.
