Highest selling DS game in Japan : New Super Mario Bros.(DS) - 6.13M units by week #230

Pokémon Black/White - 4.22M units by week #5

With it's first holiday season coming in,I think B/W has a very high chance to achieve this,it's already beaten the Wii champ there,which is New Super Mario Bros.(Wii) (4.04M by week #46)

So,do you think it will happen?Also,do you think B/W will become the highest selling game ever in Japan,which is atm Pokémon Red/Green/Blue (10.23M)?IMO that will be extremely hard.

Note:Sales data based on VGChartz numbers.

holy shit how did pokemon red/green/blue reach that number. black/white should definatly beat nsmb, but 10 million is very far, it will never reach it, unless it gets a 3ds release.



Being in 3rd place never felt so good

It will certainly. Iwata said that with the 3DS, they wish to expand Black/White sales even further with tag mode.



3DS Friend Code:   4596-9822-6909

it will probably sell 100.000 to 150.000 / week

there is still 10 weeks  to finish 2010 so 1 million to 1.5 million

Pokemon B&W will be between 5.22 to 5.73 millions

 

plus january to march, it shall be sure to beat NSMB

If you mean worldwide,it's a bit too early to say.

If you mean Japan,of course it will.



People need to take in consideration that this is the last Pokemon game on the DS,thus it will be marketed like hell this holiday season,having better holiday-sales  than any Pokemon game this generation in Japan!
