nope, can't agree with kezza (even though she is not that bad). Worst comes to worst the wii u will be an another n64 like situation it may not perform as well as the competition but it will establish itself a nice ecosystem (yet comparatively smaller) providing fantastic games and making Nintendo dough. The 3DS performance shows that many people still enjoy nintendo games and nothing will change that in the foreseeable future
@tovare nope, it means retailers have plenty of wii u in stock or they are not running out of stock quickly enough, so therefore they are not buying many consoles from nintendo. It still paints a poor picture, a lot of people are interpreting this as how many consoles were sold to the consumers.
@ThomasBW84 Yeh, I am more confused than ever. Nevertheless, regardless of the interpretation - Nintendo is still in a hole with the Wii U. I appreciate that you took the time to respond to my comment
@ThomasBW84 I'm 100% certain these are shipping numbers, this is business jargon. "Sales" to Nintendo means consoles sold to retailers on the other hand "sales" to an average means sold to consumer. From the comments, i think most people are not making the distinction
My understanding is that these are shipping numbers, that is number of consoles they sold to their retail channels. What they sold to consumers (sell through numbers) are much higher. Nintendo Life please clarify i think the readers are getting confused
