"Nintendo has shifted approximately 40,000 Wii U consoles during launch weekend, it has been reported. Wii U stock is thought to be in short supply throughout the UK, with few additional units expected to be delivered before Christmas, reports MCV.  Despite a lack of Wii U exclusives in the all-format top-ten, the console has enjoyed a software attachment rate of 2:1, figures that point towards a successful launch for Nintendo&amp;#039;s new device. The unofficial sales figures, which are based on retail feedback and trade sources, exclude downloadable titles from Nintendo&amp;#039;s eShop. Earlier today it was revealed that Wii U Premium consoles accounted for 60% of launch sales. ZombiU bundles made up 30% of sales, compared to only 10% for the 8GB basic package. The Wii U launched across Europe on November 30, and was released earlier this month in North America, selling 400,000 systems in its first week of release. &amp;gt; Read our review of Nintendo Land &amp;gt; Read our review of New Super Mario Bros U &amp;gt; Read our review of ZombiU &amp;gt; Read our review of Scribblenauts Unlimited (US only) Watch a hands-on video with the Wii U below:  "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
