Aww yeah, you go Vita. Nothing major for it released this week, and there's only two games for the system in the chart, yet it only dipped by 1000 sales.
Sonic was created for the west, specifically America, really. The more disappointing numbers for Sonic will be the NPD numbers next month.
Also like he ignores how poorly Lost Worlds did on the 3DS as well.

The 3DS is the emperor that gives the thumbs down to kill the champion gladiator?
The 3DS was able to increase its baseline to 100,000 per week. I believe it was selling at 40,000 per week over March-Sept. before Mon Hun 4 came out.
Funny how expectations change over a couple of months.

Nothing of note this week, cool to see Vita holding on though. I wonder what numbers the WiiU will put up next week with the bundle, perhaps a spike? If so, anything larger than 15k will surprise me given its low numbers over the past month and its no guarantee that they'd be able to hold any momentum that it'd gain.

Why would you be shocked if you knew it was coming?

Jesus.... those Wii U numbers.
Most impressive that they were able to do it within MonHun and Pokemon fever. Guess 2K really knew their demo and were able to target and get them to the stores to buy this game.

Wonderful 101 and Zelda performed poorly as well.
I really don't expect the bundles to do much either because there's NO interest in the system or games.
Basically it's a Mario machine and nothing more. Not a healthy situation.
PS+ JP is horrid.

It's a Mario bundle that precedes a major Mario game. It'll do well. We just don't know how well.

Wow at Wii U, hopefully that bundle helps. If it doesn't crack 20,000 after these last few weeks I think that has to be read as a disappointment.
Anyone have a release schedule for the Wii U and Vita complete with hardware releases (bundles and Vita TV)?

Capcom requires its consoles to be at least G rated to gets its Mon Hun franchises now. Vita isn't G rated. It's only C for Champion rated. ;_;

The current overarching trend really does seem like it was already in effect before the announcement of the bundle.Wii U weekly sales roller coaster of doom.

A Monster Hunter 4 bundle releases right before GE2 releases, so 3DS will probably still do similar numbers to now. And it's nearing the holidays, so numbers will not drop that much.

I feed bad for wii u since I own one but the faster it dies the faster nintendo designs a better console. That or nintendo gets cranking on more games !

What a shame.
Did the "fanbase" transit, or is it simply easier to find new casual fans among kids in the rest of the world compared to Japan? Food for thought.

I'd be surprised if WiiU is more than 20k.
I don't think so. At least not in Japan. Mario sold like 550k, where Nintendoland sold 350k, Monhan and Pikmin both sold more than 200k (even if Pikmin was a disappointment compared to the last ones).DQX with it's supossedly download sales are getting there too... It's hardly a Mario machine. I expect to see Wii party u selling much more than all of the software that came for it in the last couple of months combined and i'm not even expecting to do that well considering the last one sold millions.
Wonderful 101 was a nice game. I don't think it was as good as everyone here do and i totally understand the reason for people not wanting to even try, but, for me, the product here is very faulty and the demographics weren't there, so, it tanking was reasonable. Tanking that hard was on wiiu, but it just wasn't meant to be.

Did 3DS Sonic launch before Wii U Sonic?

So this being the worst selling Sonic game has nothing to do with Wii U.
At least the Lost World 3DS sold more then the Generations 3DS in first week. That's a good thing, right? Guys?...guys....someone out there...
PS: every multilplat Sonic game sold more on Nintendo plataforms. That 90's mascot love!

Aww Yisss Vita in beast mode :3
Well, Pikmin 3 was able to bring WiiU to 20k. I'm at least thinking that the new bundles will hopefully help WiiU reach the 20k mark.
But then, I probably shouldn't expect much
how so? just cause it's champion?

Nice - I'm surprised with the Vita hold.
GTA still selling decently.
I didn't know these baseball games are this popular in Japan .
Next week will be the Wii u time to shine.

Yes, but Japanese holidays start mid Dec till mid Jan. I'm specifically talking about now till holiday start.
As expected, pretty boring week overall. Wasn't expecting Vita to be at 25k, but then again, I derped hard and thought it was at 15k last week. Wii U reeally needs those bundles, but I'm starting to believe they won't do much. And my 3DS predictions were also off : was expecting to not to drop below 100k before ealy 2014, but guess I was wrong. Still good to see it higher than 2012 so far!
