June 2015 NPD: Wii U hardware sales estimate
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 1 Comment
The June 2015 NPD report was issued on Thursday. However, as usual, numbers were not revealed. Nintendo did say that combined Wii U and 3DS hardware sales rose by more than 20 percent over the same time frame in 2014, but we didn’t have a specific figure – until now that is.
Rough estimates indicate that the Wii U sold 70,000 units in the U.S. last month. That number is largely based on the information Nintendo provided as well as the chart below supplied by “creamsugar”, who often leaks NPD data.

Wii U was estimated to have sold around 43,000 units in the U.S. during the month of May. That would mean that the console saw a slight bump during June.
