Update (12/3/10)
Black Friday week sales are in and there are 54 weeks of sales reported. There are 6 weeks of sales left with 2.4m units left to go. Or 400k/week. With the new bundle and last weeks sales of 600k it is looking more likely that NSMBWii takes over the crown.
Original
NSMBWii is closing in on 20m and has a shot at being the fastest selling game to 20m (launch aligned). NSMBWii currently sits at 16.31m sold with 50.3 weeks worth of sales (51st week with only EMEAA results in). NSMBWii is also now bundled with the Wii. With essentially 9 weeks of sales left NSMBWii is going to have to sell on average close to 400k/week to break the record.
To put things into perspective, MKWii sold about 280k/week during its second holiday season after it had already pulled in over 18m in sales. MKWii sold about 450k/week during its first holiday season after selling 8.93m
So what do you think? Will there be enough bundles? Will there be enough demand regardless of bundles?
