New Wii U sold in 2022, seven years after console discontinued

  • Wii U was discontinued in 2017 but a new unit sold in September 2022.
  • Sale occurred against odds, as Wii U was unpopular and sold only 9.2 million units.
  • Remaining Wii U inventory typically returned to Nintendo when discontinued.
  • Sale suggests a small retailer with looser inventory controls still had stock.
  • Occasional sales of new discontinued consoles like PS Vita still occur.
