I guess most people don't expect it to have very big legs, even for more than a couple weeks. And what really surprises me is that Wii Fit Plus isn't getting more votes when it's selling very steadily and could post some big numbers. |
Even if the game had great legs, NSMB Wii just released in the west, and is releasing in Japan that very month. An opening month on top of a holiday boost (which is huge on Wii games) is going to be massive. I mean, SSBB in Japan sold ~1.4mil in its first month (NSMBWii is looking like it'll come close to its first week). Last year, MK Wii did ~2.8mil in December in the west alone, and these sales were months after the game's launch.
I can't see NSMB Wii doing any less than 4mil in December worldwide, so Modern Warfare 2's December would have to be at least 25% higher than CoD:World at War's.
edit: What the... there's an edit record now? That'll be on every one of my posts =/
