This is what I said three weeks ago:
"The new fan base Nintendo has picked up with the DS and Wii don't all rush out to buy a game on day one. Heck, first day sales for many Nintendo titles are low and then are huge by the end of the weekend.
I'm going to guess about 400k current Wii owners plus another 100K new Wii owners will help Galaxy debut at around 500K. But the game will sell well over the holiday period and total well over 1M by the end of November and will be between 1.5-2M by the end of the year. (A lot will depend on system supplies.)"
I'm going to hold fast with my prediction for the moment, though Galaxy does appear to be tracking a little more like Mario Party 8. (It too had first day sales around 100k+ and total first week sales of ~282K.)
Numbers are like people. Torture them enough and you can get them to say anything you want.
