So...

What will be the split between Wii and PS3 this week?

Under 15k?

360 should continue to dominate.

Yikes, Wii Party sure is huge! Nintendo found another gold mine!

Wii Party is actually under Mario Party 8 so far.

Only just barely - 9k, and Wii Party's while selling less initially is now well out-pacing Mario Party.

Week 6 - MP8 42k, WP 130k

Yeah, the holiday helps but not that much, that's great word of mouth happening

Nice week in Japan, even more compared to Others. Nintendo gets the biggest bumps from festivals shopping, not enough for Wii to beat PS3, though, but enough to get again the top SW seller.

Nintendo gets more than 55% of total Wii and DS SW sales.

If GT5 does what I expect it may do way more than accelerate it.

Love the product, not the company. They love your money, not you.

zgamer5 said: "why did ps3 pass wii?"

Because Sony launched just 3 weeks ago a new color for the console, that give it a huge boost, since this week is/was Obon week, the sales gain some momentum. If they don't launch something interesting in the next 2 or 3 weeks, Wii might pass the PS3 again, but just for a few weeks, till the big releases of the end on the year.
