I thought YI2 will be sold about 700.000 times. It is much better than new super mario bros. Maybe I enter the Top 10 of the prediction league.

Yoshi's Island 2 I think will sell steadily in the top thirty for a long time because the game is so good. Word of mouth will be huge. 500k after 3 weeks...700k after 10...1,000,000 after 25...something like that

the wii's numbers could also be higher. They sell between 60 and 80k a week.



TheSource said: Tommorow will be busy with NPD Data and Japanese hardware/complete software... I think for the week in Japan you can expect: DS - 135,000 Wii - 55,000 PSP - 45,000 PS3 - 23,000 PS2 - 22,000 360 - 3,500 GBA - 750 GC - 250 Wii has to be approaching 70% next-gen market share in Japan...
GAF already has preliminary hardware numbers..it was DS~100k, Wii~50k, PSP~50k. In other words lower for Nintendo than your numbers across the board. Wii sales are lackluster..that's 200k a month. I guess some people will claim it's supply issue, but I dunno.. DS sales are falling too. Final numbers could be in the 90's..how long has it been since that happened?



I dunno, from what they've been saying on several boards (I have a lot of spare time), it seems like the waiting lists for Wii's are still quite long. Maybe Nintendo's attempts to increase production hit a snag?



Nobody is crazy enough to accuse me of being sane.

170k to 30k for gundam??? 80% dropoff? and i thought last week's numbers were supply-constrained. and KOEI thought they were gonna sell a million copies. so much for that.



the Wii is an epidemic.

The DS is unstoppable! Every new baby that is born in japan should have one installed in their arm..... just to skip the lines.

Lol I can't belive how good Yoshi did. The power of the Nintendo name.



 

  

 

200k a month would still be 2 million through October. Nov & December would be at least 40% of that...around .8-1.5 million I'd say But honestly, Wii sold over 400k in Jan and over 300k in Feb. The 400k and 200k average out to 300k, which I think is closer the average Wii will sell per month through October
