To be fair, the Wii U was already dead anyways.  I mean, if having Mario Kart and Smash Bros. in the same year, the latter being released in the holiday season, couldn't save it, nothing will.



Splatooooooon! Great to see a new IP doing so well! I hope Nintendo is encouraged by the success and continues down this path.



It'll be awhile before I figure out how to do one of these. :P 

Not bad. I guess MK8 was more frontloaded.



Proud to be the first cool Nintendo fan ever

Number ONE Zelda fan in the Universe

DKCTF didn't move consoles

Prediction: No Zelda HD for Wii U, quietly moved to the succesor

Predictions for Nintendo NX and Mobile

It's sad, Nintendo and Wii U had such great momentum leading into E3 due to splatoon but completely crashed and burned and destroyed the Wii U. Nobody else is going to buy a Wii U. Unless they do a damage control direct... Splatoon is atleast selling good and thats cool.

But seriously, people are still going to buy a Wii U after this.

Mario Kart 8 after 10 weeks: 578,616

Splatoon after 5 weeks (not 10, ONLY 5!!!): 348,040

gap (10weeks VS 5weeks): 230,576!!!!!!!!!

NOW.

 

Splatoon sold 37,458 unit last week.

Splatoon in the next 5 weeks must sell ONLY 30,576 unit for close the 200k gap.

So, you predict Splatoon will sell by now with avarange of 6,115 all week? WHEN LAST WEEK IT SOLD NEARLY 40K!?

 

...

The gap will probabily be under 100k.

Ups, I thought you mean lifetime...
In 10 weeks the gap should be around 50-80k.
