Wii U Sales Plummet

Appar­ently the Wii U has sold 940,000 units in the US in the three months since it’s launch.

Not a great num­ber, but not actu­ally hor­rific. It’s more for exam­ple than the XBox 360 or PS 3 sold in the same time frame. Though it’s far weaker than pre­vi­ously Nin­tendo sys­tems and may be a sign that the brand is eroding.

But the big worry is the slump. 890,000 units were sold in Novem­ber and Decem­ber. Which means only 50,000 were sold in Jan­u­ary… That’s less than the 67,000 the orig­i­nal Wii man­aged in October.

Admit­tedly Jan­u­ary is a bad month for con­sole sales, but Nin­tendo must be pray­ing those num­bers pick up.
