for all the haters it is being reported nearly 3 million wii u have been sold in 6 weeks. that number is amazing. gamestop has sold just under 350,000. that is just 1 store in the us. wii u is doing just shy of what the wii did and far outselling the 360 and ps3 did in their first 6 weeks.

I agree. I need actual sources, although that would be great news.

Yeah, as good as that 3 million sounds, we'll need a credible source, can you provide one?

This is a little more than a week ago. It says 2.45 millions of units sold. If you do the math, it should be be at 2.9 millions (2.87 exactly), which is not so far from 3 millions. It's not quite that, but hey, it's legit.

I've heard vgchartz isn't always credible, but most people have been reporting at least above 2 mill. And that was 2 weeks ago. Only 1 million units a month to hit their target if it;s 2.5 million sold today

says they need to sell 3mil more by march 31st.

but it already raped vita sales, but we need to wait and see how well it stacks up to xbox720/PS orbis sales, but both of them releasing close to the same tiem will hurt eachother sales.

Well that's cool, who thinks they will hit thier 5.5million target? I think Ninty might just scrape it.

If this is indeed true I find those numbers to be impressive, especially when considering the short time span that the console has been available for purchase. I'm sure even more consumers will purchase the WII U once titles like WII Fit U, Pikmin 3, etc are released.

Units sold 2,000,000+ (as of December 31, 2012)


Wikipedia.

So it's likely near the 2.5 as of now.

what the Wii you think im a little kid that needs a picture. are you a moron or what. the 3 million isn't official. its a approximate on ign. the 320,000 by 1 store[gamestop] is 100% real and is in their quarterly report. that's a average of 55,000 a week by 1 store. the 3 million is basing on what the sales have been in japan and us and estimating Europe since their reports are not that reliable. just pointing to a fact that the wii u is selling very good. far surpassing the 360 and ps3 at launch and not really not that far behind the wii. just the fact that 1 store is selling 55,000 a week average is amazing. throw in amazon toys r us every other site and store I can see how the estimate 3 million sold now. what the Wii is the deal with hey you have no profile picture? man is there a site for gaming that isn't 9 year brats.

Profile pictures are over rated.

I feel they will be close to meeting their 5.5 million mark. At least somewhere in the 4 millions, which is pretty damn good.

5.5 million is going to be really tough considering the holidays are over now, but the launch has still gone pretty well.

And yet this link states that the 360 sold nearly 3 times the amount that the Wii U did in the U.S in December?
