Just beastly second week numbers from New Super Mario Bros Wii. Wow that was even higher than my 350k-450k prediction range for it. Wii hardware is just impressive as well. Seems this was what Wii needed. Tales of Graces is definitely disappointing (had expected just under a 200k opener) but still not doing terrible. Hope this doesn't mean the lack of Tales games in the future. Only reasons I can explain potential lower sales is it had to compete with NSMB Wii and FF13 and kinda got overshadowed. Maybe a release in early 2010 would have boded better for the game.
Modern Warfare 2 sales are quite great in Japan as well but it's kinda weird to see a game like that sell in Japan. But there are a lot of "westerners" in Japan so they do have a market. Good hardware sales for DS, PSP, and PSP. Nice boost for 360.
