3DS wih top 3 and 13/20 overall. Nintendo am already kill..

Aso lol no XB1 games in sight.

[AdmiralClassy]

xb1 slipping into triple digits... looking good!

Seems like when a new monster hunter comes out on 3ds all of japan goes crazy about it haha

[DarkMagician77]

Wii U depressingly low despite three  major AAA software releases in Bayonetta 2, Hyrule Warriors and Fatal Frame!!! At this point Nintendo needs to really refocus their energies towards the west as Japan seems to be a lost cause.  The only way the can resesuciate the Wii U there is by releasing MH4G for the console after releasing Smash this holiday; then releasing a Pokemon title and then maybe the next DQ (most likely will go to PS4 than Wii U).  I do think they really need to get a major software release right after Smash to keep the Wii U alive in Japan!!!  Where is FE vs SMT, why is there no sequel to Last Story, where is a console Pokemon game and why haven't Nintendo offered to fund other AAA JRPG's like Tales or DQ to gain exclusives for it in Japan. Nintendo of Japan's decisions have been very defensive as of late and needs to really up their game.

[Lightning_Ninja]

Little bit less than the first week sales of the regular MH4 last year, but still puts Smash Bros in perspective. 

 

Man, there's not enough time in the day for me to play smash bros and catch up on MH4U news.

[NintendoReport]

Home console sales overall are low across the board not just Wii u although I agree a monster hunter exclusive could help. Perhaps not a port of the latest but something built from the ground up.

A animal crossing could help too among the others mentioned by dark.

Yeah what worries me is that the Wii U is with 3 AAA software + MK8 is basically neck and neck with a PS4 that doesn't have any relevant software on it's library.  I could easily imagine them taking Japan with just the release of FF15, KH, a Tales game or equivalent.  Thank goodness KH looks to be at least a good 12-15 months away before releasing!!!  With the current situation in Japan, only Nintendo faithful will really support the system even if Smash comes out!!!  It would really take a major coup like a Tales exclusive along with a combo of FE vs SMT, Pokemon and yes Animal Crossing to turn the tide at this point!!!
