A few big titles came out on Nintendo platforms last month. Arguably the most significant was Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate, which launched on both the Wii U and 3DS.

In roughly three weeks, Ultimate moved somewhere between 100,000 and 130,000 copies on both platforms. The 3DS picked up 60% of the game’s sales while Wii U picked up the other 40%. Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate is now 13th all time on NPD’s Wii U lifetime software chart.

Other NPD estimates include LEGO City: Undercover (more than 100,000 copies, but less than Ultimate on Wii U and 3DS), Need for Speed: Most Wanted U (less than 10,000 copies), and Castlevania: Lords of Shadow – Mirror of Fate (around 30,000 units).

Nintendo will be launching the Wii U Virtual Console as well as the system’s first of two big updates in the coming days. It’s just a matter of when.

Findings on Nintendo’s website and Facebook page may give an indication as to when both of the above-mentioned items will be available.

First, Nintendo posted an image to its Facebook page on Saturday suggesting that the VC will begin in three days. That would set the service’s arrival for April 23:

There’s also a listing for Excitebike on Nintendo’s official website mentioning an April 23 release.

During the most-recent Nintendo Direct, Satoru Iwata said that the Wii U VC would be available a day after the new system update is prepared. Does this mean that the firmware will go live on Monday followed by the VC on Tuesday?

Buddy & Me managed to surpass its goal on Kickstarter. A total of $42,093 was raised out of the desired $40,000 amount.

As you may remember, the Wii U was added in to the campaign as a stretch goal. The necessary $55,000 total wasn’t met, however. What does that mean for the Wii U?

The official Kickstarter page explains:

First up, let me say that we owe our loyal Nintendo fans so much. You guys have been amazing, and are one of the biggest reasons this Kickstarter survived after its first three weeks. You’ve reminded the team of how much our previous games meant to you, and really inspired the team. We will not forget that. We don’t want to let you down.

Bottom line, it does cost a lot extra to port to Wii U, and we will need to find that funding somehow, somewhere, sometime. We can’t in any way promise or guarantee it until we’ve figured out how to do it… but what we can promise, is that we’ll try.

You’ll be happy to know, we’ve already reached out to Nintendo (Nintendo of America headquarters is just a few miles away from us), and are trying to figure out exactly what it would take to get development kits, and get more familiar with the technology.

Retailers have now opened pre-orders for the Wii U version of Splinter Cell: Blacklist. You can reserve the game at Amazon here or GameStop here.

Splinter Cell: Blacklist launches on August 20. It will be the first Splinter Cell on a Nintendo console since 2006’s Double Agent.

The NPD Group does not typically release hardware and software sales data for video games, which means we generally must rely on leaks and clues coming from official statements to piece together data.

In the case of the March 2013 report, we may have figures for almost all major platforms. A leak has allegedly sprung up on 2ch, and while we typically tend to be hesitant in sharing official information from that source, numbers listed on the message board do sound feasible.

The figures are as follows:

?3DS 230K?+1%? (nearly confirmed based on NPD analysis)
?Wii 91K??47%?
?Wii U 67K
?PS3 211K??36%?
?360 261K??30%?(official)

Assuming the data above is correct, that would mean the DS sold 86,000 units, the PS Vita moved 33,000 units, and the PSP tacked on another 8,000 units.
