July 2015 NPD: Wii U sells 46,000 units
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 18 Comments
A few days ago, Nintendo shared a few tidbits about its sales performance in the U.S. last month. But the company didn’t have much to say regarding Wii U hardware sales. While Nintendo is remaining quiet on that front, we now have a sales figure for the console thanks to creamsugar, who often leaks NPD data.
Wii U managed to sell roughly 46,000 units in the U.S. during the month of July. That would be a slight decline compared to May’s estimate of 70,000 units.
According to Nintendo, Wii U software sales increased by 10 percent through the first seven months of the year compared to the same period in 2014 in large part due to the success of Splatoon. The Big N also said that 3DS hardware sales are up by close to 35 percent.

July 2015 NPD: Wii U software sales up 10%, 3DS up 35%, Splatoon hits 540k in the U.S.
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Wii U | 21 Comments
Nintendo has provided GamesBeat with a statement concerning this month’s NPD report.
According to the company, Wii U software sales in the U.S. have risen 10 percent through the first seven months of the year compared to the same period in 2014. That’s largely thanks to Splatoon, which is now sitting at almost 540,000 units sold in the region. As was announced last month, the game has sold close to 1.6 million copies worldwide.
“Much of [Wii U’s software] growth can be attributed to Splatoon, which inked nearly 85,000 total units in its third month to bring its lifetime total to nearly 540,000 total units in the United States alone. As of June 30, the game has sold more than 1.6 million total units around the world.”
Nintendo also shared the following regarding 3DS hardware:
“Through the first seven months of 2015, sales of Nintendo 3DS hardware have increased by nearly 35 percent over the same time frame in 2014.”
