It's done great. Within its first week, it has beat many of the lifetime predictions people have made on this site.

I think it will leg out thanks to Ninty's great backing of the title, the high metacritic score, the value of the overall package, and because WiiU owners don't have many other options.

I promise you that when the next WiiU drought hits, many will remind you to play Bayo 2.

It's not though. Dropped out of the Japan charts rapidly, and is out of top 40 UK after 2 weeks.

Still #1 on the eShop charts in NA. Pretty sure some other users can confirm it's doing well in the eShop internationally too.

It has sold through first shipment very quickly, even in Europe. Many would tell you that the first print special edition very quickly became extremely hard to find. And while it may have dropped off in the UK, elsewhere where it is in stock it is still charting. 

Ninty is still marketing the title in the west. Not sure if they tried nearly as hard in Japan though.

Seece, since you live in the UK, go to GAME and send us pic of a huge stack of unsold Bayo 2 copies if you see that. I have a good feeling you won't.

Because they never would have got a huge stack in the first place. Game is outside top 40 UK, you said yourself it's not doing well here.

It's always funny how these things have legs in countries that are not tracked independly of VGC isn't it?
