    1. By that standard, everything but the 3DS is dead…
      Nintendo Domination confirmed.

      …Was it your GOAL to use such moronic logic that it backfires? Or just to entertain me/us? After all, your comment could be a pretty good PARODY of trolls. So congratulations on that, at least.

    2. WiiU is out selling the Vita world wide, This is Japan and a handheld is not even denting its more refined and technically savvy weaker opponent, the 3DS. Re-educate your logic processors.

  1. “Good good, it’s improving again” so says the dumb faggot who loves to damage control, how is 8k for a 8gen console good?

    Weak U is being outsold by the Vita and the Ps3 and Ps4 lpl then this moron says it’s good, 8k for a less than 2 year old console is good. Lol

    Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha how pathetic

    Rather say nothing instead of damage CON TROLLING

    You Con of a Bitch

    1. 1080P/60fps games in abundance says hello to your supposition. You must have the WiiU confused with the VCR Betamax sports spy kit. Mario kart alone has caused the delay of :
      1) drive club for PS4
      2) Need for speed set for 2015( multiple consoles )
      3) Watch Dogs WiiU

      Check out how Nintendo’s first party software easily sold above a million, even WindWaker HD game that too six months to make over.

      1. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

        Just be warned my friend, that is not the real Aeolus…

        That’s just a racist homphobic ape…

      2. Huh? How did Mario Kart cause any of those things? You needa wake up and leave your dream world.

      3. “Mario kart alone has caused the delay of :
        1) drive club for PS4
        2) Need for speed set for 2015( multiple consoles )
        3) Watch Dogs WiiU”

        Wait, what?

        How?… What? lol I don’t even….. Where did that come from?

        1) DriveClub got delayed from a launch game because it was a mess and not ready for release. They almost had to start over with that game.

        2) EA currently has a Need for Speed game in development, but they’re restructuring to not have it as a yearly release.

        3) Watch_Dogs Wii U, unfortunately, was just never a priority for Ubisoft.

        None of that has to do with Mario Kart.

    2. Nintendo Commander is a cunt!! Fuck you you poser. Buy a wii U, how dare you call youself a commander of an empire and dont even have its main console. What a fucking joke lol..

      1. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

        Anotherblind Xbot that doesn’t know that being a Commander within our empire is not a high rank at all…

        1. I don’t think the rank exists.

          u don’t even command anything anyway.

          should been called something else.
          ur just a ……..as u call it…….a “recruit”.

      2. Leave the commander alone. He’s one of my favorites on here. A true Nintendo fan, just like everyone on MyNintendoNews should be.

    3. Ignoring that PS4 sales aren’t good neither since you damaged controlled in August when Pikmin 3 got Wii U at 17K. Now all of a sudden PS4 at 11K is good. But when games got Wii U in double digits it wasn’t good.

      1. Thanks for that reminder but I don’t see what it has to do with this article.

        Are you say Nintendo are not dominating and instead DESTROYING the competition?

        1. Obviously you did t get it because you love under a rock.

          Only the 3DS is dominating because there is no competition
          The Wii U however, is on life support…

  2. I just can just imagine the 3ds murder that will happen once alpha, and omega come out. Japan will streets filled with blood

  3. Man, PS4 is selling pretty bad too. Consoles seem pretty doomed in Japan. I guess cell phone gaming is really really taking over.

  4. Ps4 hype is over. Psv flopped I have 1 it sucks its uncomfortable to hold and the sticks are worst then ps1 2 3 controllers sticks xb1 is just nothing no one cares about ms anymore… it seems like people are just waiting for more wii u and 3ds games

  5. steady 8000 a week give or take ps4 nosediving like atomic bomb in japan, no need to damage control consoles are dying, thats a fact, sorry sonyans and xbot if it butt hurts..

    Hahaha…

  6. I’m slowly starting to regret getting a Wii-U. Hopefully, when Mario Kart 8 comes out, I’ll be in better spirits.

    1. Mario Kart 8 will make you glad to have a Wii U. It’s the game most gamers are the most excited for this year.

      1. I know, but come on! Even though it’s only 3 weeks left before it comes out I feel depressed! The Wii U needs more support and more sales! I’m in better spirits and Mario Kart 8 will be a success!

  7. Commander has no Wii U hahaja jeez man if your going to talk the talk at least support us and get the “U” like all of us have and then we can talk command. Embarrassing :/
