WiiU...? >_>
Pikmin, do you even lift?

Pikmin sales in America are higher than I expected though


It's because people have almost nothing to play on their systems. I fully expect it to dive off the charts by week three.

It's just an educated guess, but I expect at LEAST a 40% drop next week. Wii-U's aren't moving, and without moving consoles, you can't sustain numbers like this. Those copies are mostly going to current owners imo.

Don't know.

So, if Pikmin 3 had been released simoultaneously in US, EU and Japan, the boost of Wii U Sales could have put the console totals over XBox 360 for one week (and, with some luck, maybe two weeks, but that is less probable).

Unless my numbers are off, no.  With Europe, Japan, and the US's Pikmin week, we get a total of 45,852.  That would be well short of the 360.  But, take that PSP!
