Wii U

I don't think we get total software numbers for the other consoles.

Splatoon has officially outsold every Metroid game. It has outsold every 3DS Zelda, and no Wii U Zelda will come close to it. The squids are going places in the future.

Edit: Mario Kart 8 is officially not the worst selling Mario Kart, beating out Super Circuit and Double Dash. So much for Polygon's chart. It'll hit 8 million without a question. Probably not 9 million, though it's Mario Kart so it's not impossible.

I remember when people claimed Splatoon would only reach 500k Worldwide in its lifetime.

Good times. Good times.

I knew they had something special with Splatoon right from the get go. They shipped it super hard at E3, and people weren't even annoyed at it. Kind of amused that it was in every second presentation slot, but still wanting to see it being played.

So just a heads up, keyboards are compatible with the Wii U browser, and that-s just peachy now that I dont have a computer.

New n Tasty finally gets a Wii U release on Febuary 11th.

I didn't know there was an Odd World game for Wii U.

I doubt it will sell well.

It's the port of the HD remix from last year(IIRC).

I'm not sure if it selling well or not will be a problem, considering the game's been out for a while now and it's only a digital only game. Plus it's on a 25% sale for a little while after coming out.

Wow. More ports of old games.

Keep on being you Wii U.

Thank god for stuff like Splatoon, Smash 4, and Xenoblade Chronicles X.

I'm just glad we finally got that Wii U port for New N Tasty. I don't care if it's an old game, I'm glad it's finally out on this console.

I just wish they gave us Gamecube games.

Is it possible for the Wii U to play Game Cube games via Virtual Console?

Possible, probably. Ever going to happen, no.

By this point, it should be a thing for the NX to do.

Poor marketting a launch, lack of new third party support, not the most stellar launch titles.

And you know, most Viewers Are Morons.

More details on My Nintendo. Of interest: Cloud saves and possible crossbuy for eShop purchases.

@ Cloud-saves & Crossbuy: YESSSSSSSSZ!!!!

Wow.

Too bad I don't use a PC.

Still, that's pretty cool.

... How would cloud Saves be useful since your NNID can be linked only to one portable and one home device at a time?

You won't be able to play your Splatoon save in a friends house.

The most this would allow is to send your NES virtual console saves back and forth between a Wii U and 3DS.

Shame NES is the only VC the Wii U and 3DS share.

That could be changing, especially since NNI Ds are probably going to be integrated into My Nintendo.

Lets hope there wont be a huge outbreak of account theft with it.

Actually, it would be nice to have the option to lock an ID into one device.

Just a heads up: Emily Rogers, one of the people who outted the Paper Mario Wii U rumor just tweeted a picture of Kumadora from Mother3 with a smiley and #2016.

Alongside that, she had had a deleted tweet which said Nintendo is going to celebrate a certain game's 10 year anniversary, and Mother 3 came out in 2006.

Then you'll be telling me that Half-Life 3 is confirmed as a Wii U exclusive.

Fuck yes, time to celebrate the anniversary of Wii Sports.

Wii U may have sold out in Japan. This is unexpected.
