You guys realize number 475 on the charts probably accounts for around 100 sales or less on Amazon right?  I mean the PS3 has 82 games selling better, and the entirety of the 360 top 100 is higher than Revelations on the Wii U.  For example, Mass Effect 2 (360) is number 449.  According to VGC it sold 665 units last week.  Now what percentage of the market does Amazon have?  Maybe 10% if we're generous?  That would mean Revelations Wii U sold less than 67 units.  Now obviously none of these numbers are really hard data since neither Amazon nor VGC are great metrics for sales data.  But the point remains that it wouldn't take much to get it to that position.

As for why it is higher than the PS3/360 versions I'd imagine it is a combination of there being more for those owners to buy right now as well as pre-order before Revelations comes out.  Which holds up when you see that there are at 182+ PS3/360 games selling better than Revelations Wii U on Amazon.  The Wii U version being $10 cheaper probably skews the Amazon results compared to other retailers.

Also I see you aren't making a thread about Walking Dead which has even higher sales on Wii U than Revelations.  However...
