@stof, well you can look at gears of war sales, they also declined in January.
Also i saying, that when SMG sales reached SMS sales in Japan, the legs significally declined, look at SMG graphic in Japan.
In europe SMG doing pretty good(that`s why SMG will reach 7 mln. in total sales), but eventually sales also will decrease like any other game sales.
Overall, SMG sales are very close to SMS sales. it will take atleast 2 month. in usa and europe, to prove that overall SMG won`t reach 12 mln., while reaching similar to SMS level numbers will only prove that Wii by 85% bought by nintendo fans.
@pichu_pichu, since when you compare handheld game sales to home game sales?It`s like apple sales to compare with pens.
@Sqrl, yeah i compare and said, that geow sold 5 mln. and SMG will make 7 mln., because of it`s better sales and a little better legs + sales in japan.
And yet 16k SMG in Japan.
