Wii owners are waiting for price drops, Zelda for example.

 SSBB < Mario
Mario Kart Wii < Zelda
Wii Fit = WTF no-oneknows.

My point isnt how nintendo sucks, and the games are bad. Find one place in that thread I said nintendo sucks. I am just saying, people are buying consoles, and no games. I have been saying that for the last year. It's still the same way. It's just grandma, buys the Wii becuase everyone says it's so much fun. And then she never buys a game. 

It still may outsell Halo 3 but it was unrealistic to expect it to pass Halo 3's week 1 numbers ...

Over the next 5 years Super Mario Galaxy will continue to sell thousands of copies every week so it is possible that it will (eventually) pass Halo 3 worldwide

There it is. Nobody would call any of those three systems a failure. Thread is over. Go home to your families, they miss you all.

Funny how you're always wrong Kwaad

What's up Kwaad? Nice to see you posting again.

I like your thread title. Makes is sound like Nintendo is losing money.

Anyways, I don't think EVERYONE was waiting for just SMG. There are still people waiting for SSBB or for Mario Cart. Some aren't waiting waiting at all and just buying games as they come along. Like me.

 Lol I can see this coming:

When Soriku is 18 "SMG OUT SELLS HALO3".

 I wasnt doom-saying it like that.. but overall that is my point. There truely arent many games being bought for it. That's what amazes me. There just arent many 'real' games being sold.

It's true that wii owners are more likely to be casual gamers who'll buy fewer games, and with the hardware shortages, they may even be limiting the number of more hardcore gamers purchasing wii's, but if nintendo's able to continue to expand production, and demand for hardware keeps up, that's a pretty small problem to deal with.

Yeah, Halo 3 sold almost 3 million units of software during it's first week. The next week it was dow to 600 thousand and on the third it was somewhere around 300k. Up till this point, Halo 3 has sold 6 million units worldwide, out of which USA has more than 4 million units, the rest divided by Europe and Japan. Point is? The game was practically bought by everyone that would be interested in it. During the first 4 weeks. Sales now are on the 50k level and dropping. Meanwhile you're woeing that a game that sells enourmous amounts during its lifetime, didn't do so on its first day? Get a grip! I for one am very eager to see SMG sales by the end of the year, when it will probably be on the very same sales level as Halo3. Or maybe a million units sold less. Big deal. The game is still a success by anyones standards. But then again i don't have the whole "ZOMG this game has to sell billions of units!!!!!!" approach.
