Where is  DK :(  come on Wii owners!!! And what about Kirby?! it only has a month to go now :( 

It is really sad that just dance 2 is the most preordered wii game, cuz really it isnt the kind of game you'd preorder, yet it's outpacing all of Nintendo's games. At least epic mickey is doin alright. One thing that will make me happy though is if Basara shows up for PS3/Wii. 

I really do believe people are overestimating Kirby sales potential. Critics and Nintendo enthusiasts may really like the style of Kirby, but honestly when was the last time a Kirby game really sold well?

It depends what you mean by 'really well', but Kirby Super Star Ultra sold over 2.59 and this number doesn't include Europe and the game might have suffered from being a port.  I don't know about the rest of the world, but here in the U.K that game came out last year so I would say last year is the last time a Kirby game sold really well.

Kirby Super Star Ultra (DS) Nintendo

1.42

1.17

0.00

2.59

fyi, I think Kirby Epic Yarn will sell about 2.1m worldwide

OK so a DS game, what about Console games. I looked and the best selling console Kirby has sold 1.77.  So dont expect much out of the new Kirby game.
