  • MK8 sales have once again destroyed Polygon's stupid article. Hopefully the Wii U can break the 10 million mark soon.

  • At least their software seems to be doing well. I wonder what the Wii U's attached rate is?

  • @Wii U News, you may want to include amiibo WW sales. "Iwata said Nintendo sold about 5.7 million of its new Amiibo figurines worldwide since late November, giving an early indication of whether the company’s strategy of selling toys will be successful. Iwata spoke at a briefing in Osaka today." - Bloomberg

  • That's what happen when you ruin your first year. Terrible marketing, confusing name... at least we're getting somewhere now, but I can't see the Wii U surpassing the PS4. Oh well, console wars are for 12 year olds.

  • It's brilliant to see Wii U sales rising, however it's not great and hopefully will rise even higher in 2015. The fall in 3ds sales is definitely expected though.

  • Was hoping to post details ofNintendo's Investor Meeting tomorrow morning, however, it appears as if it has been delayed. Iwata has come down with flu, possibly Influenza and has had to postpone it. New date unknown.

  • Actually you don't have to sell billions of dollars of items. A lot of people get hung up on it has to be over 10 million! But really compare the 500+ million profit to the other two companies who are subsidized by their parent organizations

  • Sony as a video game company by itself could survive for a lil while without Sony Entertainment paying the bills but at some point they would succumb to losses. Xbox as a video game company frankly I just can't see it succeeding by itself. Ever since xbox released Microsoft has been pumping funds to keep it running. Nintendo. For over 100 years has been self sufficient and self sustaning

  • If they keep chugging along like this, Wii U will sell NGC numbers!

  • @yan-sid- I doubt it. Gamecube had more sales at the same point in its life and had 9 million sales at the point in time where wiiu was at 4-6 million. WiiU is most likely to sell less I think considering.

  • Best News I've Ever Heard Now That This Happens Maybe Ubisoft Can Turns Around With This News And Make A Real Rabbids Game :)

  • A Flu So This Means No Awesome And Interesting Stuffs (QoL Thing And Stuff) Until Next Investor Year :'(

    Yeahs0
  • Holy... something! Almost 10M Wii U's sold?! Nintendo had better keep the great games up! Star Fox, Zelda, and Yoshi's Woolly World should make the sales go up decently high this year!

  • [ Update ] Nintendo Financial Results Meeting has been reshceduled for Feb 17th. Normally it would have gone ahead on the same day this news was posted but Iwata came down with Flu so it was postponed.
