If Reggie gets fired you may as well fire Iwata and Shibata as well. The thing is failing everywhere.

55k is borderline dead if true.

THIS!!!
It's not like DMC 4 got some huge ad push on the back of its good reviews five years ago.
DMC4 had a fairly big marketing push behind it. It was their first major tentpole release of the generation, and it had a lot of hype behind.

55,000... holy shit I cannot wait to see the Nintendo PR spin this.
'Wii family' incoming?

Look for me on the local news, I'll be the guy arrested for trying to burn down a Nintendo exec's house.
Why WOULDN'T Yves want to launch an exclusive game to this rapidly expanding global userbase?
Also gotta lol at Pachter overshooting like more than double. Thats quite a science, Mr Analyst!

55k is much more in line with expectations than 270k.
Regardless, can we please get a reliable, non-Gamasutra number?

Was Reggie sighting in the NOA Nintendo Direct today? Or was it all Iwata in his adorable Luigi hat? Perhaps he's already gone!
Yeah because none of the other three do this. Nope.

How bad is that compared to vita?
That's pretty much a given, Wii outsold Wii U in December too
If the 55k is actually true (which I'm still doubting) in all fairness to Pacther I don't think anyone would have expected that.
They'd have to have games to do one of those....
Only NFS: MW U can save it now!Are you US folks seeing any marketting for the thing yet?
Mega ultra super fucking bomba of the forever @ 55k! Vita held on longer than that! LOLOLOLOL!
Sounds about right too! Search your soul for a second, WHO would be buying a WiiU right now with its library?
Noone.
And its just as pathetic when they do it. This is going to be so good. I cannot even IMAGINE how they are going to try and spin this shit.

WOW.
I'm speaking prematurely, but if the low 55,000 figure is right, that's astonishing. That's physically uncomfortable to read. Post-launch sales can be soft, but that's an abrupt freefall. Yikes!
This. C'mon now...
There's no way..... there's no WAY!

If that number is true they won't even make 3.5 by march

If true, Vita sold more in it's third month, a four-week month.
3.5M even becomes a stretch.

55k would be crazy bad if true.
I couldn't help but smile. It would be good payback on 3DS fans making fun of Vita's shitty sales so much.

Someone really may get fired over these numbers if true. This has to be more than just marketing or software issue at this point.
