Great for DS hardware. Software is not impressive overall. Taiko 2 did not do that well in its first week for Wii, but hopefully it will continue to sale well. The Wii/PS3 hardware race continues to be interesting, and it certainly seems that it will come down to the wire for which console sales more in Japan for 2009.

Yeah, Taiko Wii 2's debut is awful.  It may crawl to respectable numbers (and likely will, Taiko games tend to sell only 10-20% of their lifetime total in the 1st week), but his is bad.  Previous Taiko 1st weeks this gen...

  • Taiko no Tatsujin Portable (2005) 14,593
  • Taiko no Tatsujin Portable 2 (2006) 14,638
  • Ennichi no Tatsujin (2006) 10,192 (Wii party-game spinoff)
  • Taiko no Tatsujin DS (2007) 60,250
  • Taiko no Tatsujin DS 2 (2008) 89,158
  • Taiko no Tasujin Wii (2008) 114,610

Wii went a bit up. Nice, but not enough for a previous market leader.

Eh, Wii's never really been the market leader in Japan.  It's always been DS.
