the preview somehow missed Borderlands completely:
X360 & PS2 Software – No games charted for either system. Expect X360 hardware sales to fall into the 1,500 to 2,500 unit range, while PS2 hardware falls into the 1,200 to 2,200 unit range.

Yeah, they missed Espgaluda II as well.  :/

There's 1 Best release for the PS3, Demons' Souls.

@My post: Yeah, I didn't expect any to chart either, but Monkey Ball was a true bomb. With that kind of support I doubt the momentum won't be lost.



Proud poster of the 10000th reply at the Official Smash Bros Update Thread.

tag - "I wouldn't trust gamespot, even if it was a live comparison."

Bets with Conegamer:

Pandora's Tower will have an opening week of less than 37k in Japan. (Won!)
Pandora's Tower will sell less than 100k lifetime in Japan.
Stakes: 1 week of avatar control for each one.

Ack, fixed!

And yeah, I'm surprised Wii isn't lower than it is but I expect more decline over March/April.  NSMBW is slowing too, though looks at sellthrough it may be supply constrained still. :/

Nice Wii Hardware..and software actually.



Bet between Slimbeast and Arius Dion about Wii sales 2009:


If the Wii sells less than 20 million in 2009 (as defined by VGC sales between week ending 3d Jan 2009 to week ending 4th Jan 2010) Slimebeast wins and get to control Arius Dion's sig for 1 month.

If the Wii sells more than 20 million in 2009 (as defined above) Arius Dion wins and gets to control Slimebeast's sig for 1 month.

sure is, i mean wii sales were 20k this week last year. The pattern of 1.5/1 sales for wii/ps3 seems to be the new norm.
