Fire Emblem won't make 500K? I fail to see the joke. It lacks 50K and hasn't been released in Europe! Even without Europe it should make it!

Excite Truck shouldn't make 1M, that is probably right.

Cooking Mama should have a good shot. It lacks 260K, and sold 15K last week, and it won't stop selling a lot. I reckon it should make 1M.

Pokemon needs 130K and sells more than 10K/week, it is a definate.

thanks for the input Oyvoyvoyv, I made a few changes. I'll try to add some more gold games later this week or even make a new thread if there is too much to read.

I was talking about making 1 million, regarding the sales of all those games. Although....I've changed my mind about pokemon and cooking mama. I was under the impression that they'd stopped selling.

yeah I honestly doubt it (fire emblem) will hit 1 million either, but there is always hope   I went ahead and added the Gold section as well for that reason.  Does everybody think I should keep it there or make a gold thread as well?

 



cooking mama doesn't have european sales on there, i'm very sure it's already over a million.

@Johnsobas

You're right. We do not have any Europe Cooking mama sales. http://vgchartz.com/swlaunch.php?reg1=Japan&game1=Cooking+Mama%3A+Cook+Off+-+Wii&reg2=America&game2=Cooking+Mama%3A+Cook+Off+-+Wii&reg3=Others&game3=Cooking+Mama%3A+Cook+Off+-+Wii&weeks=100

i dont think excite truck will make it



tag:"reviews only matter for the real hardcore gamer"

Sad that Excite Truck won't make it. It was one of the best launch games the Wii had...and the best racer to date. As a matter of fact....it's nearly better than all the arcade racers on the PS2 (note...I did not say simulation).

I rented it because the bad reviews scared me away....and I ended up payingg $30 in the process. So now I have to wait until it becomes budget to justify a purchase. The problem is is that a used one comes to $45. If that isn't proof that it's a solid game I don't know what is.

Oh well...let's just hope for a Super Excitetruck.



I believe cooing mama had European sales added sometime around Q3 last year but as it is not tracked the Europe numbers haven't gone up. This is an issue with many of the games released before ioi started weekly European software numbers. Even more of an impact for Sonic (Europe loves their blue ball).

I thought, and I could be mistaken, that DDR hottest party was relased in Europe as well and just doesn't have those numbers tracked. Japan will not get it as they got a different cooler version.



Final* Word on Game Delays:

The game will not be any better or include more content then planned. Any commnets that say so are just PR hogwash to make you feel better for having to wait.

Delays are due to lack of proper resources, skill, or adequate planning by the developer.

Do be thankful that they have enough respect for you to delay the game and maintain its intended level of quality.

*naznatips is exempt

Smarty Pants will hit 1 million someday, it is not being track in NA I think.
