Here are the sales of games in Japan last week:
Wii: 123,500
Yes, and with 65,000 or so Wiis sold in the same week, let's assume that everyone that bought a Wii also bought just one game with it.
That leaves about 60,000 games sold that were purchased by existing Wii owners (I'm being generous here).
60,000, out of a userbase close to 2,000,000.
That is something worth thinking about.

Sales go up 23k with no significant releases at all.
Sorry, but I just can't help but laugh at this. Aside from the fact that your figures are incorrect, I find it amusing to see a thread on this same page predicting that Sonic and the Secret Rings is going to sell 90,000 copies in the first week on sale, yet after it turns out that the game has bombed, you claim that there were no significant releases at all!!
no my figures are not incorrect at least according to mediacreate. Last week Wii sold 44k, this week 67k = difference of 23k. No there were no significant releases, and no Sonic is not a significant release in Japan and i never claimed it was. There was a game released last week Eyeshield that sold the same amount as sonic if it makes you feel better.
That is something worth thinking about.
