Nearly 700 percent weekly increase
Wii U sales increased by more than 685 percent in the United Kingdom last week, largely thanks to the release ofThe Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD.
“We have long believed that software sells hardware and it’s great to see that reaffirmed this week,” Nintendo UK consumer marketing boss James Honeywell toldMCV.
The title debuted at number four behind perennial chart-toppersGrand Theft Auto V,FIFA 14, andF1 2013. Perhaps the maligned little console isn’t dead in the water after all.
