Obviously sales aren't amazing but when u add USA+Japan sales for Wii U, it's flat YOY, once u add in Europe and other regions it's probably slightly up. That plus 1st party software & Amiibo sales are pretty solid so as long as they are making a decent profit off Wii U from this point on than their is no reason to rush out new hardware. It's never going to sell amazing but at least give it a full console cycle to get back as much money from it as possible while pleasing the fanbase.



When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.

No, i think they learned with sega how not to go out of hardware bussiness.

But by doing that, wouldn't that hurt the 9mil WiiU usrbase? Cant just call quits that easy :0

That will happen.


Are you suggesting 3DS will be up this year? Not that its impossible.

Still impossible?



3DS in 2015 up to now has had

-New 3DS

-Majora's Mask 3D

-Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate

-Xenoblade Chronicles 3D

-Codename S.T.E.A.M

While at this point in 2014, I think all 3DS had was "Yoshi's New Island"

That 80% increase is no big suprise to anyone

BD was a big title last year, did wayyyy more than Yoshi. Kirby+Mario Golf was Apr vs this year which is literally nothing. May we have PDZ, and nothin else?

June last year had Tomodachi. All i remember...
