Here's an update on UK software sales, including platform breakdowns.
Looking at the Wii U, do you think it got a bump from the releases in late summer? Things ticked up in July, and that continued into August. But, it's still extremely weak. How much will Wind Waker, Super Mario 3D World, and Donkey Kong help out this holiday?
Just to quantify the change:
June: 24K/5 weeks = 4.8K/week
July: 31K/4 weeks = 7.75K/week
August: 32K/4 weeks = 8.0K/week
That's a 60% increase in unit sales, over 70% increase in revenue to go along with it.
Figures come from media reports on UK software sales in terms of units and revenue, and monthly reports on platform splits (given as percentages).
