Opinion?

Yes, in all countries. 29 25.89%
 
Only in France and Germany 30 26.79%
 
Only in France and UK 4 3.57%
 
Only in Germany and UK 0 0%
 
Only in France 18 16.07%

Only in UK 4 3.57%
 
none... 24 21.43%

If the successor arrives after 2016 IMO it could do it in all 3 regions. Thus far the only one that Im failry certain it will do is France.

Thanks for the info guys! Judging by these figures, I can't really see the Wii U reaching one million neither in UK, France or Germany. There aren't big sistem seller anymore, and we are already at it's third year in the market.

At first I was gonna vote for yes in all three. But after seeing the numbers (I´ll just assume they are correct) I had to say no in all three.
EDIT: My guesstimate
UK: 680,000
Germany: 750,000
France: 800,000

Confirmed numbers:

2012: 97,000

2013: 178,000

2014: 240,000

... I think the other sales will be:

2015: 280,000

2016: 200,000

2017: 120,000

2018: 60,000

other 40,000 / 50,000

Tot: 1,215,000 or so.

 

But 800,000 seem seriusly too small...

France and Germany, yes. France is probably Nintendo's strongest region after Japan and they fare reasonably well in Germany as well.

The UK hates Nintendo lately so I'm less sure about that.

I have to question this. The 3DS is doing just fine really, and the Wii/DS did amazingly well. The only reason the Wii U isn't doing well is because it's been poorly advertised and badly handled, but I can assure you that it's far, far from "Nintendo hate" here.

As for the OP, I'm not sure but it should be reasonably close. 



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

I don't think it will hit 1 million in any of those countries:

1. France: 900,000 up to 990,000

2. Germany: 850,000 up to 930,000

3. U.K: 830,000 up to 870,000

Can you write your prediction Year on year for the France?

As for now:

2012: 97,000; 2013: 178,000; 2014: 240,000

Whoo , i predict France is a easy for 1 million. I reckon it could hit . 1.3 million in France especially with this years games and hopefully some reveals at E3.

Germany i would go for about 1.1 Million. it's not a bad market for it and Nintendo Europe is based there.

The UK is a touchy ,but i think it could squeeze a million consoles. Of course with the Xbox brand being much stronger here it is against it. In the other two countries Nintendo are close in numbers to XBOX. But in UK the Xone is three times the Wii U number and their in second place.

But as the UK is a big gaming market ,and one where people play multiple consoles , i think it could hit the magic mark because very few will buy a PS4 and a XBOX ONE. But many may indulge in a Wii U as a second console to play MK8 ,Smash,Zelda,X and all the other exclusives.

Nintendos improving exclusive library of games for the system will sway many to indulge in that second system.

In fact it would be nice to know if any Early adopters of XONE and PS4 are thinking of a Wii U as a second console this coming Christmas.  What say you all.
