Irrelevant comparison, how many times will I tell you that... GC had two huge price drops in two years consecutively, wii u had none... Mario kart 8 had doubled the weekly baseline for five months and hepled wii u on holidays in the west! Splatoon ( along with super mario maker ) made wii u to have huge holidays in Japan ( repeating the sales of its best year, 2013 but this time with expensive bundles, not like the killer ones of 2013 ) which create wii u shortages later, do you forget the 100k selling week in Japan?
The 60% attach rate of Mario kart 8, means something... Soundwave... Show finally some love to the poor wii u! |
Wii U had very poor hardware sales and a lot of titles here failed to really boost its sales to respectable level, from the SALES POV I don't need to show it love, because it doesn't deserve any.
It's like saying an obese man is in good health, when clearly he's not, all we're doing by doing that is basically lying. Saying a person who is 200 pounds overweight for example is not overweight doesn't change the fact that they are ... grossly overweight. It's just a fact.
The Wii U only had like 4 months in its entire lifespan in the US where it had 100k+ months outside of the holiday season. That is horribly bad, it was a consistent sub-100k/month machine in the US for the vast majority of its life span regardless of what software Nintendo released.
