[Max King of the Wild]

Wii U last year on this week had 6,500 too. And 28 weeks after launch Wii U was about 947k.

[Max King of the Wild]

Torillian just did a nice assessment on Wii Us overtrackedness by using Wii U stock in Japan but he used the wrong number. As of June 30th Nintendo shipped 1.87m to Japan. As of June 29th the Wii U sold 1.81m in Japan. It doesn't take Monday into consideration but that would be the slowest shopping day in the week and the next week it sold 8-9k. So, the Wii u had 50-60k stock ending the quarter.

Sounds right about Japan... PS4 have a stock near 50k too... that is enough to ~10 weeks with the sales right now.

He figured that based on Japanese stock alone that WW should have a similar stock to sales ratio as well. He found that multiplying Japan stock by 7.2 should find WW stock. And I agree with that. NA probably weights the ratio a little higher than Japan but EU and everything else a little lower and cancel each other out. Using the 50k and 7.2 multipyer then global stock should be 360k and above. In other words, 300k over tracked.

I made another account and took all my energy not to call Tak and wii u fans complete morons. I should have though to make that account worth it but I didn't because I wanted to try and use logic to show Wii Us numbers are impossible

Even without running numbers I guestimated about 300k over. Lol at padib thinking 10k stock in USA is reasonable

Well after that it start to going in the wrong path.

US/EU are way bigger than Japan with way more stores to have stock... and the shipment takes one to two weeks to reach them while Japan happens in matter of days.

So the stock in US/EU is bigger than Japan.

I think Wii U is ~500k overtracked.

I was posting as logisticalnightmare. I stated if every Walmart in the US alone only had 4 units (which is a ridiculous small number. Don't know if you remember but when I looked at Targets stock most stores had about 6) then Walmart alone would use all of the stock for the entire world. That post conveniently got passed by

[Dr. Pezus]

Wrong thread?

Most people saying it's not overtracked or by "XXX at MOST" simply don't understand hardware sales

It's the right thread because torillians assessment is based on Mediacreate and famitsus numbers

I think Wii U is ~500k overtracked.

He figured the sales ratio based on previous data. But of course, since Wii u is overtracked that would be a problem being that the ratio he is using is wrong. But yeah, I think it's been overtracked since beginning of the year. Like 100k in first quarter. 200k last quarter.
