Games Radar: Retailers, publishers and Nintendo itself have all expressed disappointment over early Wii U hardware sales, but theres finally some positive momentum as new software releases have boosted adoption of the platform holder's latest console in both the UK and Japan. In the UK, Wii U sales jumped by almost 125 per cent during the week ended March 23, retail sources have told MCV. The success was attributed to the release of Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate, which is available as part of a new hardware bundle, and a major sale at HMV that saw the Wii U Premium model discounted by £140.
