Pokemon looks to have a great first week in US. Wonder how its comparing to X/Y.

And is VGchartz pre-order gotten reliable? I often hear people complain about it but I'm not sure.


i don t know,but you can say that they arent representive,e.g smash bros 3ds had 70k pre-orders and probably have sold in the  first week in usa around 900k-1.2m...:P

Yeah, pre-orders weren't a great indication of Nintendo game sales for the Wii and DS and I bet its the same for the Wii U and 3DS.

I believe I hear more complaints about AAA third party games though.

I'd love to see Smash sell that much in the US but I'm not sure if it can. Japan loves smash and handheld games so its huge first week make sense. Unfortunately, the 3DS has been selling the worst in US lately. And since its the first handheld Smash game, Ithink its difficult to predict it first week sale. It will definitely sell way more than the 70k pre-order number though.

we should be happy that 3ds hasnt fallen below 20k in Europe and USA, taking into account new 3ds/xl ;)
