The negative record streak for home console Taiko games continues with the latest addition to the Wii U library, which -despite netting an higher starting place that its predecessor- manages to move nearly 8000 less copies in the same launch window span of Taiko Wii U Version. Barring the latest titles for the Call of Duty, Assassin's Creed and Dynasty Warriors, it's being outsold mainly by other Nintendo titles, with the Pokémon Ruby/Sapphire remakes taking the lead with over 3 million copies of combined sales to date.

Please note that, as always, the chart lists only boxed purchases, barring the sales of retail digital downloads (such as Nintendo eShop downloads) just like for Taiko 3DS 2's launch sales.
