Kimishima talks Wii U production and shipping strategy for next fiscal year

This information comes from Nintendo’s investors briefing as stated by president Tatsumi Kimishima…

Next, I would like to discuss our strategy for production and shipping of Wii U in the fiscal year ending March 2017. We plan to greatly reduce the amount of Wii U systems produced and shipped for the fiscal year ending March 2017, compared to the fiscal year ended March 2016.

Taking into consideration demand for the new NX hardware and overall demand forecasts, we plan to ship 800,000 units.
