Update: The 38,000 figure seems to be pretty much spot on. Analyst Michael Pachter all but confirmed it to be the real deal on Twitter:
@icallitfutile Yes, close. Off on 3DS/DS, though

A rough estimate of US Wii U hardware sales for the month of April is in. Data provided by the ever-reliable NPD leaker “creamsugar” indicates the console sold between 30,000 and 40,000 units last month. Another leak from 2ch puts the system at around 38,000 units.
Amazingly, the Wii outsold the Wii U once again. The older console sold between 50,000 and 40,000 units in the US last month.
Amazon Canada lists Deadpool for Wii U
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 0 comments
Amazon Canada is listing Deadpool for Wii U. Other than the retailer’s product page, though, there isn’t any sort of hint that Activision plans to bring the game to the system.
The ESRB still only lists Deadpool for the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PC. A quick look at other popular retailers in the US also make no mention of a Wii U version.
It’s possible that Amazon Canada’s listing could be a simple mistake. If Activision provides a comment about the situation, we’ll have it right here.
