Wii U 2013 - 880088
Wii U 2014 - 604856

The decline is real


if it declined to 400k this year then it would be selling an average of 7k per week. I beleive it got as low as 5k a week last year so it's def possible especially with MK8 or SSB coming out.

Everything is in decline, 3DS up barely but probably would have declined similarly if it wasn't for New 3DS.



currently playing: Skyward Sword, Mario Sunshine, Xenoblade Chronicles X

Ouch WiiU really down. PS4 sales are ok with how little games it has right now. PS Vita is also down. Wonder if it will get a price anytime soon!


But wii u was week over week up,26k down is low and being above ps4 and especially outselling psvita for fourth straight week,i.e for the whole december in JAPAN is great,while some expect it to drop like a rock and be below ps4 and psvita for that week...!

Objectively,the ouch should go to ps4...If you can't see that isn't good,I can't say anything!See you in 2015...for the over-used argument of little games...

 

Though he is right , you dont know what youre talking about , its next week PS4 should be above, and thé fact you dont want to understand PS4 cant sell better without enough games ( while WiiU already had 2 biggest nintendo system seller, still its selling less than least year)shows your agenda ts next week that PS4

I read this last week and the week before that. 


Maybe you could try to understand what you read to argue... You could just look at the fact and see PS consoles always get a big boost for the new year



Predictions for end of 2014 HW sales:

 PS4: 17m   XB1: 10m    WiiU: 10m   Vita: 10m

Toad, it definitely deserves the sales. It wasn't the Captain Bomb people thought it was. FFE is alright for a FF title, Youkai Watch bigger than Pokemon this year, NepNep gone, Phantasy Star Bomba (wonder how low it is), PS4 is horrible, Vita bad, Wii U meh, 3DS okay.

But, history happened! Mario Kart 8 has outsold Mario Kart Double Dash!! according to Famitsu

MKDD: 825.894
MK8: 842.053

Of course it includes bundles, but it was about 700K standalone when the bundles hit (probably around 720K-730K standalone currently). 2nd best selling Wii U game so far, behind NSMB U, will probably remain that way, Smash Bros. Wii U not a huge bomba as predicted, will be the worst selling Smash Bros. in Japan (none of this "combine it with the 3DS version" nonsense. )
