I don't see any information in the article as to what period that is for. I'm guessing it's 7/1/13 - 6/30/14? If so, Mario Kart only came out in May so the vast majority of those numbers are sales before Mario Kart 8.

Right now the Wii U is narrowly outselling the Xbox One. 59.1k worldwide sales the past month over Xbone's 57.7k. And we're over 2 months now after MK8 release so it looks like Wii U is getting some sort of permanent bump from MK8.  No, of course the Wii U isn't going to be a huge hit or even come remotely close to PS4 numbers but I think when it's all said and done it will have OK lifetime sales.

6 months ago Wii U was selling only 39k monthly. 24k monthly prior to MK8.

Atleast we're not in last place. I hope Wii U can hold it's edge over Xbone.

I still get frustrated with all the negative press Wii U gets yet it's outselling Xbone and you never seem DOOOM articles about Xbone.
