Terrible numbers, one of the worst consoles (sales wise) ever

What would you say if I told you that the Wii U is still in the upper half as far as a ranking of bestselling consoles goes?

I would be shocked and sad for all the consoles behind the Wii U.



                                                                                     

Massive flop, if the NX fails aswell Nintendo will be in for some tough times.



I think my guess from way, way back was 40M. Heh.



Still waiting for a price cut along with my nintendo fan brother inlaw.

You jinxed it.



So I guess now it's safe to say that it won't get to my 64m prediction from 2012. Missed it only ever so slightly though so at least I can sleep tonight without feeling ashamed.



I guess my bet that the XB1 will reach 30 million before Wii U reaches 15 million will happen.



Made a bet with LipeJJ and HylianYoshi that the XB1 will reach 30 million before Wii U reaches 15 million. Loser has to get avatar picked by winner for 6 months (or if I lose, either 6 months avatar control for both Lipe and Hylian, or my patrick avatar comes back forever).

Before it launched I thought it would do around 30mil, 40 at most...never expected this.

I don't know what convinced you that it would come close to 30mil? It was obvious that the console would not have mass appeal. The thing was dead on arrival with a horrible concept, name and controller.



So John Lucus's prediction of 240 million Wii U sales is not going to happen?

But seriously if you predicted under 30 million on this site 3 years ago, you would of been called crazy and burnt at the stake
