OK Wii Fit was launched in NA this week, and many people thought the game was going to sell like 10 trillion or something.

 

The game has failed to reach 1 Million in NA in its first week dispite lots of marketing.

I do think this game has sold well but has sold under expectations. Looks at Ninty fanz.

 

And some people predicted that this game would sell over 1mil in NA first week with ease. Not going to name you but youno who you are.

Now that the results are in is anybody going to admit to being wrong and lower there predictions.

I'm going as far to say that this game will not pass ps3 or x360 ltd sales.

Discuss, hey?

 

The game sold as many copies as it shipped - therefore a success

This game is all about legs - therefore will be a success

The game moved alot of hardware - therefore a success

Of course it will not outsell the PS3/360 any time soon. But keep in mind it's selling much better than Wii Play in the same time frame, and Wii Play is only 1.5 million behind the PS3, so it is possible (though I doubt it) that it will outsell one of them eventually.

There've been alot of games announced recently that take use of the Wii Board - every time one of these games is released we will see a spike in Wii Fit sales

My prediction always was that Wii Fit will outsell Wii Play, and I stand by that.

 

So, you were saying it failed somehow?


 Failed as in did not sell as well as many ninty fans predicted, you can look back on the prediction threads, and you will see it for yourself
