Article is NOT misleading.
This thread is - and its actually wrong.

It simply says that Metroid sold more copies than Bioshock for the same week - i.e. Metroid week#1 > Bioshock week#2.

My guess for Bioshock week#2 is 100k-150k (maybe less if its still sold out in places) - so this doesn't say much at all.

Again - I'll be shocked if MP3 gets close to 400k-500k week#1. MP2 sold 300k in its first MONTH. 


 Well, Wii is definitely more successful, and it's the first real epic game in a while for the system. Plus, Nintendo was insane with MP2, they launched it against Halo 2. It didn't surprise me that it was demolished.


Since MP3 only launched in North America, you can't really say that Wii is more successful as the 360 still maintains a sizable lead (and will likely continue to do so until well into 2008). The one place where the Wii is clearly demolishing the 360 is in Japan, and they don't care as much for Metroid as the West does.
