just as i thought ps3>>wii this week 160k is good ps3 sales thankyou very much, sorry wii you may have to wait until zelda comes along

Lol DKC is going to lift Wii hardware, probably far more than Zelda will..


small boost predicted, wheras zelda with motion plus, i think it will do more for wii, honestly we can make a bet if you want

Well I'm not much of a betting man, plus I'd rather not make myself look like a fool if I'm wrong :P. It would be impossible to measure the numbers anyway, since we can't really corelate the exact relationship between the usual holiday boost from the DKC effect itself.

But anyway, the main reason I say Zelda won't move as much hardware is because it'll likely be released during a slow period, whereas DKC will be released during the holiday season. Also, DKC is very similar to NSMB, which single handedly reinvigorated Wii sales up to today with the help of a price cut. Zelda will be very big with the core Wii gamer, but DKC will have more of an appeal for the expanded audience, as well as the core. I'm just looking at the evidence. I think Zelda will have more Galaxy like sales (7-8 million) and DKC will sell more similar to NSMB (10-12 million).


seriously, econ 101.  when the price drops the demand increases.
