Thank you

[NintendoReport]

Thanks for posting the chart. January and February was a blah month, but March should help a bit with NFSMW U, Monster Hunter, Lego City etc.

Its nice to see the Wii U is doing better than the 360/ps3 launch.... but at the same time its disappointing, I mean look at how close it is to the ps3, the ps3 didnt exactly have a good launch by any means and it didnt really pick up until fairly recently, I hope it doesnt take the wii u that long to gain traction

The PS3 did not launch in the world climate we have now! everyone is feeling the pinch so i would say it's doing well indeed.

And this is with a bone stock dry Wii U. Imagine when all the good First Person titles come out. I expect Generation Y to allow the Wii U to flourish over the next few years.

All the wii u has to do is roll out the big name games and use the gamepad right and its over for all other systems.

We got watch dogs, pikmin 3, monster hunt,
So id say the wii u is going to be doing very while shortly.

Agreed

I think Destiny will also be announced either in an upcoming ND or at e3. Other big multiplats hopefully Ninty can announce through ND but it's entirely up to the publisher. Ubi didn't announce WatchDogs for Wii U before because Sony was giving Ubi part of their reveal keynote, and probably negotiated to have it announced for PS4 first.

Not doing bad at all. Once the software starts to roll out over time, it'll just get better.

[KarlMarx1818]

Nice to have some good news. Still a lot more to come from nintendo. TVii hasn't hit Europe yet, The Virtual Console isn't up and running and most of their 1st party AAA title haven't been launched.

look at the figures for the Gamecube & Wii & how quick they fell down & died due to lack of decent games !

[MorbidGod]

The Wii U sucks. PS4 rules.

Okay that sounds ridiculous ... Lol


Seriously, though, Wii U is doing fine but it can and should do better.

[SoldMyWiiUAndLeftTheForums]

Well that's reeally good

[AndyG]

I just hope that we can get much better third party support than we did last gen.

This years E3 is going to be interesting, Nintendo really needs to step up their game after their E3 conference last year.

Idk why i keep feeling like Nintendo is purposely holding out, like they are just waiting for the right moment to be like "yep, heres what our system can REALLY do!" then shows some jaw dropping surprises..... and the crowd goes wild.

[PS3WIIIUfan]

i was at EB games today and they were sold out of Wii Us, the guy told me there selling very good! Maybe Wii U its picking up!Maybe people saw Ps4 didnt like it or think its to much money,and if the xbox720 flops i see the Wii U sale flying!

Looked at the bird demo again today, it is very capable.

E3 is coming. All they need to do is show some Super Smash Bros. Wii U footage and I'll wet my pants.
Hypothetically of course...
