amazing sales for everthing except wii and PSP


really, comparing wii to psp?

 

People!!!, wii is still outselling ps3, it's down yoy, ok, but c'mon!!!!

no one ever comments about ps3, or psp, always wii is doomed.

Last year we were discussing about this exact same thing, do we need it again?

It's starting to get so bad that it's funny.

Wii is doomed, despite already selling more consoles than Nintendo's previously most successful console, the NES. It also has the most software sales, and still outselling the PS3. Yet people talk about it as if it's the 32x.

The 360 slim has made some people a little loopy..

I can't wait for Donkey Kong Country to make these people look foolish, like NSMB Wii did last year.

What i find really funny is that it's only the Wii fanbase who seem say the "doomed" word these days.

And can you please list me the sales of the top 3 DK games please? Then show me the top 3 sales of Mario games, before NSMBWii?

Oh, thanks for your consideration of taking your time for looking at the numbers ***does forced smile***

 

Dk, is gonna be big, not as big as nsmbwii, but it has chance of moving consoles, a great classic returining. Actually, I'm gonna make a prediction and say it will outsell gt5, yeah!!

plus the expected kirby wii, waited forever, and goldeneye and mickey can do something

Xbox360 sales are amazing!!

Ps3 back in 3rd place.

PSP is dieing..

ps3 had its turn with the slim, and now same for the 360S..should last some more months and into the holiday season...the real tie-up should begin in the holiday season...



I predict that DKCR will sell 2M tops lifetime and wont sell a single wii.



Buying in 2015: Captain toad: treasure tracker,

mario maker

new 3ds

yoshi woolly world

zelda U

majora's mask 3d

People obviously don't need to say "doomed" to insinuate it is.

When someone predicts the 360 and possibly the PS3 will outsell it this holiday, that's essentially what they're saying. Since we know 360 and PS3 sales will be low (compared to Wii last holiday), for this to happen, the Wii would have to be down like, 40%, at least.


edit: Wanted to add that the Donkey Kong comparisons are useless. 2D DKC has been tried only once - on the SNES, and it sold more than Mario Kart.

Try that "last 3 Mario Kart's before DS" and see what you get. Yeah, what does that tell you?

I don't think DK has many fans now as it did i nthe 90's and people wont be fussed over buying a wii just for a DK game.

I honestly think DKC:R will sell about 8 - 10 million 

However this is based on the assumption that Nintendo successfully advertises it to those who bought NSMBWii

DK isn't as big as Mario, not even near, but it still is a good offer. Combined with Wii Party and the other games released in the holidays, it will lift Wii sales.

Donkey Kong Country 1: 9 million

Donkey Kong Country 2: 5 million

Donkey Kong Country 3: 3 million

*Those numbers are from head, I'm too lazy to check personnaly.

The first one did awesome, but the series entered in decline after that, but I believe DK Returns might give a new breath to the franchise.

still it won't be enough

Wii had also gotten a price cut remember and was still doing well compared to the competition.it isn't now

it will call the dk, fans.

Love for game doesn't die (unless the people who bought it at 90s died )
