The two big toy retailers in the US – Wal-Mart and Toys-R-US – have put out their toy sales catalogs for the Holiday season. Both have Wiis on the cover. The Toys R Us catalog has video games at the back. Nintendo gets the first two pages. There are 32 Wii games listed and 28 DS games . Everyone else is on the next two pages. There are 12 games each for the Xbox 360, PSP, PS2, and PS3 (in that order). The catalog features only games scheduled to be in-store by 10/31 (thus no GH3, SMG, Rock Band, etc.). Count by manufacturer: Nintendo 60, Sony 36, and Microsoft 12. The Wal-Mart catalog is even more interesting. Video games are in the middle of the catalog. There are four systems – Wii (7 games) and DS (5 games including one exclusive title) on one page, Xbox 360 (6 games) and PS2 (5 games) on the other. There is no PSP or PS3. The Wii console is also on the back cover. And the ad must have been done well in advance. While includes the Arcade 360 system, it still does not have a final price for Rock Band (360) and lists SSMM (Wii). Mike from Morgantown
 I am Mario.I like to jump around, and would lead a fairly serene and aimless existence if it weren't for my friends always getting into trouble. I love to help out, even when it puts me at risk. I seem to make friends with people who just can't stay out of trouble. Wii Friend Code: 1624 6601 1126 1492 NNID: Mike_INTV |
