EDIT ^Thanks Arius
Megaman79, on a similar note, I was reading in a gaming magazine and they mentioned how some big name games didn't do so well like Boom Blox. I thought to myself, "based on what info?" Clearly the game is still moving along towards one million. It's pretty sad that even gaming journalists jump to conclusions and print it up. It would be like calling a movie a disaster because it only made so much in the first few weeks but continued to keep making a lot of money based on word of mouth and awards, etc. To me, that's the best sign of a game right there. If it keeps selling more than it opened with, people who play the game must like it enough to buy it. A lot of games on the Wii have done that. They'll see a jump in sales a few weeks after launch for no particular reason.
I'll come up with something better eventually...
