Update: Nyamyam also added the following on Twitter…
I think people are reading a little bit too much into Phil saying the Wii U sales were disappointing, as he doesn't give a reference point..

..for what good sales would have looked like.

Sales number X might be disappointing to Phil, but good news for another developer.

Nyamyam hasn’t disclosed any specific sales figures for Tengami, but the studio says that the game’s performance on Wii U has been “somewhat disappointing”.
Co-creator Phil Tossell told Nintendo Life in a recent interview:
Tengami has done very well for us on iOS. No doubt the worldwide Editor’s Choice was a large contributing factor. I hate to think what might have happened had we not been featured. I’d say that the Wii U sales have been somewhat disappointing. Although we had much lower expectations than iOS, I think even taking that into consideration we’ve been disappointed with the sales so far.
Tengami has been out on Wii U for about two months. Hopefully the game’s sales can pick up over time!

Last week, The Seattle Times put up a few new quotes from Reggie Fils-Aime. The Nintendo of America addressed the company’s performance and talked a bit about sales, high-demand amiibo, and more.
You’ll find a roundup of Reggie’s comments below. You can find The Seattle Times’ full article here.
On whether Nintendo is now on a rebound…
“(Nintendo is) doing better this year than we did last year. The way I would frame it: Our goal is to drive an ongoing positive trajectory. Certainly with the momentum we’re seeing with our hardware, the momentum we’re seeing with our key software titles, that gives us a lot of confidence.”
