Splatoon doing what Mario Kart couldn't.

 

[ZeroXZee]

Better than expected 2nd week for Splatoon? Wii U is the best selling hardware for two weeks in a row? WHAT?

 

[Pennywise83]

Ouch Stella Glow mega super bombed.

Atelier didn't do quite as terribly as I thought it would.

Stella Glow did terribly. A shame since the game looked at least interesting.

Atelier Rorona was dead on departure.

 

[marc^o^]

It looks like Wii U found its title.

01./01. [WIU] Splatoon <ACT> (Nintendo) {2015.05.28} (¥6.156) - 81.764 / 238.374 (-48%) <80-100%>

Next week should cross 300.000 units if we include digital sales.

 

[frankie_baby]

Wooooooooah

 

[Mpl90]

Stella Glow -awful
Atelier - better than what I thought, considering the title.

But who cares about them. Wii U rising due to Splatoon, OMGSJSJSKSKEEO

 

[crinale]

WiiU outsold 3DS lol.

 

[Jamix012]

And so the PS4 overtaking the Wii U LTD is pushed back one more week in the future. If it even ends up happening at this rate...

 

[random25]

It would be interesting if Splatoon can maintain that level of sales numbers next week. Looks like the demand has yet to be satisfied for Splatoon. Really happy for that game.

 

[JoeFu]

SOMEONE BRING OUT THE CHALKBOARD. SPLATOON SAVED WII U!!



But seriously this is amazing. So glad such a good game is getting nice sales.

 

[Mpl90]

What did Mario Kart 8 sell in its second week. I fear Splatoon did more by Famitsu.

 

[cw_sasuke]

Got damn Splatoon.... lets hope they can drop the WiiU console price for this holiday.

Well marketed, new IP's with wide appeal sell consoles, Who'd a thunk it.

Its not that easy bruh.

around 73k (MC) / 75k (Famitsu)

 

[KingSnake]

No wonder that most of the matches have half of the players with Japanese names.

You're a kid, you're a squid, you're a wonder hit.

My prediction of Luminous Arc selling several times better not looking so bad.

That's the point, If wide appeal was easily created we'd all be millionaires.

 

[SmokyDave]

If you'd told me at the end of last year that the Vita would sell more units than the New 3DS LL on an unremarkable week in June, I'd have said you were madder than Mad Jack McMad.

 

[Smiles and Cries]

Famitsu:

Splatoon: 82k
Wii U: 17k

here is my 80k

thats gud

 

[HGH]

Gematsu have the top 20 up.

You must have really low expectations then.

 

[KingSnake]

Splatoon pushing also the MK8 sales.

 

[kuroneko0509]

not-Luminous Arc did sub-20k. Can't wait for how that Vita Luminous Arc fares

New IP's are really struggling on the 3DS aren't they now? It's not like the earlier years; it seems that only established IP can get a foothold on decent sales.

 

[KuwabaraTheMan]

Wow, the Wii U going up sends a pretty good message about what word of mouth has been for Splatoon. There's definitely real interest in a group that hasn't been buying the Wii U to date.

Mario Kart sales actually went up, as well.

 

[Sammy Samusu]

81,764

Well alright then.

Have you seen a certain thread on neogaf?

Mario Kart always goes up when a big release happens on wiiu. It is just the game to get with every new wii u.

Legend of Legacy debuted well but had no legs.

 

[SmokyDave]

Well, yeah. I expected sub 10K Vita weeks would make up the majority of this year, with returns to 5-7k becoming the norm. It was dying, and dying quickly.

 

[Sammy Samusu]

Wii U went up?

Word of mouth in action?

It was kinda sold out last week.

EDIT: Oh we have a new thread.

 

[KooopaKid]

Called it for the word of mouth!

Great second week! Should follow the same pattern in France and US.

 

[BishopLamont]

I said this before, but some people are wondering if the puzzle is something else.

In the link it says "Ika manjuu" (steamed squid)

But if we switch syllables => "Ika juuman" => 10&#19975; (100.000)

Squid 100.000?

55k splatoon, 45k amiibo ?

 

[frankie_baby]

55k splatoon, 45k amiibo ?

Has there even been any restocks of the Amiibo?
