Basically as expected WSR did very well with Wii owners, especially as they have been starved for software for a while in Japan.
However it did not convince undecided buyers to purchase a Wii....
Only hope to see Wii hardware rise significantly before the holyday period is now MH3....
The issue with MH3 though is that it will likely provide a short term boost thanks to the bundling but it's not a Wii family title that can provide a long term boost to hardware, I expect at best a 3 weeks boost and then Wii sales will go back to 16-20k/week.( at best the boost will be comparable to what MGS4 did for the PS3 in Japan last year).
PS3-Xbox360 gap : 1.5 millions and going up in PS3 favor !
PS3-Wii gap : 20 millions and going down !
