Posted on 11 years ago by Austin(@NE_Austin) in General Nintendo, News, Wii U | 5 Comments
The following comes from research firm DFC Intelligence, who has been at least moderately accurate with their predictions in the past:
– They expect Wii U to sell 25 million units or less over its lifetime
– A bit more than the Gamecube
– Lower than initially expected, but they believe Nintendo is playing the right cards
