Great sales for the Wii and the DS.

Nintendo can do 3 millions on both US and European market. If they can sold around 6-7 millions of Wii WW in december alone, that would be great.

Donkey Kong is picking up and doing better. It deserves to reach the million in Europe alone.

Donkey Kong Country Returns is simply the most fun console game experience I've had all year, reminds me of the good ole days in gaming. The multiplayer just makes it 10x more fun (though ridiculously hard as you burn through lives pretty darn fast). This game will light up the charts and light up Wii sales with it.


I don't know, seems like DKCR would appeal to the same NSMB Wii crowd and they'd already buy the console for that, and then you add in the fact DKCR doesn't support 4 players at once, meaning less local multiplayer appeal, and then it makes NSMB Wii look laughably easy so you're fragmenting your base, that just adds up to fewer sales and not really pushing consoles.

Yeah, it certainly won't move as many consoles as NSMB, but I consider it a "bridge game" like Mario Kart, that sorta appeals to gamers from all over the spectrum. So by that quality it should be a pretty significant hardware mover, at least far moreso than anything else on Wii this year.
