i guess at the rate the title is selling, half a mil isn't too much on shelves. it just seems like a bunch of larger boxes to store on shelves. |
Funny story: I've seen EA Sports Active at a store which doesn't even have a Wii section. Their Wii merchandise consists of two copies of Sports Active, a couple boxes full of plastic wiimote shells, and a half-dozen $20 Wii games in a bargain bin.
This same store has full sections dedicated to selling PS3, 360, PSP, and PC games. I guess Nintendo pissed in the manager's corn flakes at some point. Or he's trapped in 2005 and still thinks the PSP will drive Nintendo out of the handheld space.
So if you consider that every store which doesn't even sell Wii games has two copies of Sports Active sitting on the bottom shelf somewhere, the numbers make sense. ;P
