But Punch Out is hardly a boxing game... maybe it's the whole NES nostalgia effect that has less weight over here. I can't really say first-hand, because at the time I was a computer guy, but I always was under the impression that the NES had a much lesser importance in Europe than in America and Japan.
If that's true, Others market can be expected to have less sales upfront (mostly core fans), but more or less the same legs after some time (mostly newcomers).
