OH YEAH!!!!!About damn time they announced something about it.Now i wonder when it is going to happen.... my guess is that it is going to be before Xenoblade X, to give the game that last push(outside of the marketing obviously)

Nice. We have news that there will be news soon enough. Better that than nothing.



You know it deserves the GOTY.

(Relatively) good numbers from the Wii U, helped out by Splatoon in Japan, and of course Mario
Maker. Pretty poor numbers from the 3DS though.

pfffff...That hyperbole again, for 3DS this time... We must be careful with the words we use and know where they match and where not..

1.27m... in the 4th year, up by 70k from last  year, same quarter! Pretty poor... Doom..

The 3DS did 1.17m this quarter, versus 1.27m for the same quarter last year. It's down. And it is pretty poor. I never claimed "doom" though, so please stop trying to discredit me by saying that.

The GBA shipped almost twice as much as that (2.27m) in the same quarter in its life, and that was after the DS had launched.

3DS did 1.27m this quarter and  yeah 1.27m same quarter last year... Do your maths again!:P So, I made a mistake it's not up by 70k but flat...

Yeah, but pretty poor is still a hyperbole, don't you think? If 1.27m is pretty poor, what would you call under 1m or even half of last  year same quarter shipments?

You're numbers are wrong. 3DS has ship 1.27m this quarter, the same of last year. Is not down, is flat.

Okay, I made a mistake in my math (I took 2.18-1.01). So the 3DS did 100k more than I thought, and is flat YoY. That's a bit better, but still pretty bad. Like I said, the GBA easily ouyships the 3DS in the same quarter (which was after the DS came out!)) In fact, even if you exclude America, the GBA still shipped more (1.5 million). The 3DS did poor for a Nintendo handheld was my point. If the 3DS had shipped under 1 million, or half what it did last year, then that would've been downright awful (again, for a Nintendo handheld).

Jesus. I underestimated so much ALL console and games... You really surprised me Nintendo. :)

Well, looks like this year can become the best selling year for the Wii U yet. The good numbers from Japan since Splatoon's release and europe slowly picking up again are sure helping
