@sirNintend0 I wouldn't mind seeing a comparison between Mario Kart 8 vs Sonic All Stars Racing Transformed. As for e3 a good look at the Nintendo Nfc figures would be cool

[SirNintend0]

Sounds good! Keep the comments flowing.

April Wii U sales up 80% YOY. That's without MK8.

[SirNintend0]

Not sure why people downvoted you, but yeah it's pretty interesting.

80% is not massive, but an increase is an increase is an increase. Not to mention it's an increase for the month where NOTHING came out on Wii U.

[thehobbyist]

That's nearly double, how is that not massive?

[Imalwaysright]

80% is not massive? I wonder what you would tell your boss if he/she gave you a 80% raise on your salary.

[Spotie]

If the numbers from last year were miniscule, then an 80% increase isn't that great. 80% of ten sales would only add 8, which isn't a lot. Obviously, the Wii U didn't sell just ten games, but the numbers weren't that great last year, so an 80% increase isn't actually all that much.

[randomass171]

Well Wii U has been making really small numbers. 80% more of a small number isn't too much more. But let's see how it does THIS month and the next with Mario Kart 8 on the rise. :)

Uh..imagine an 80% bigger pay cheque?

[ptownjbo]

NFC stuff

[nosferatuzodd]

like i said all the nay Sayers Nintendo isn't going anywhere and im glad about that cuz the wii u is my second system along with my ps4 Zelda must be played for me to be happy

[marloc_x]

Moon Chronicles might the cherry on top of two nice games on the 30th. Am looking forward to Zelda U at E3, some insite into Treehouse and Miyamoto's latest efforts..
