Forums - Nintendo - Nintendo hardware shipments per year

Yes it's really not the same era :/ 

So yes let's say 11-12M for FY16 because i take the numbers from august 2014 to august 2015, and i think it will be likely the same from march 2015 to march 2016

Late last year and early this year had the New 3DS boost which Nintendo has nothing to replicate that this time so shipments will more than likely be down compared to last fiscal year.



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

I honestly doubt they'll b able reach 25 million in a fiscal year. The handheld market has shrunk decisively, not only since the DS days, but since the GB peak and the GBA days. The next Nintendo home console will most likely be up over the Wii U, but I don't think it'll be able to go further than a good 25-30 million (Which would be almost doubling the Wii U).


you realize the next Nintendo console has practically been confirmed to be a joint home console / handheld right? to expect it to do N64 level is just silly

the Wii U failed because it was the worst marketed and thought out Nintendo system in history, and it certainly didn't have a handheld directly integrated into it

I feel like a lot of people are missing the point of Nintendo connecting and essentially merging their divisions, they are going to unite their fanbase

There was a reason why I specified "The next Nintendo home console". If the next system is a hybrid, then what I said obviously doesn't apply, once again, hence why I specified home console. And no, it has hardly been "practically confirmed to be a joint home console / handheld". It has been confirmed that they want them to be more similar for more streamlined development across both platforms, but that hardly "confirms" this Fusion idea that a lot of people think it's going to be.

FYI, either way, I doubt they'll manage 25 million per fiscal year wether it's a fusion console or two separate (but related) systems.

It would be the lowest combined shipment number in god knows how many years. I doubt Nintendo is interested in finding out really. The likelihood of Nintendo not launching NX in FY2016 is ridiculously low. But then again, you still see people on the forums saying they expect NX to launch in 2018, so...


But......but.......but......it will piss off a few people!!!!

But...but...the games! I want still on Wii U *writes a list of 50 games**gets amiibo festival and federation force instead*



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

Ah 2007, the glory days for Nintendo.



"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

Yep I won't be satisfied until we get Metroid Prime 4, a REAL 3D Mario, Thousand-Year Door sequel, open-world Pokémon MMO, Mother 4, and the return of Star Tropics, F-Zero, Wave Race, Punch-Out.
