Plus some souces are reporting that the game is sold out everywhere

So that's like what? a 2.5 - 3 millions this week?

We all now the number is going to be big. Over 2M for sure.

When is this coming out again?  Can't wait.... it'll be huuuuuuuge.

LOL at a possibility of pokemon black and white beating Halo reach's launch week in america.

~1.9m First week.

Even with the preorders ending in 1.7??

Pokemon Black/White is going to be the biggest selling yet most overlooked game next week (with Halo: Reach launching in the West and Black/White not doing the same). Hopefully the game will get the excitement it deserves once we get closer to the Western launch.

The new Pokemon are awesome, the MetaGame is going to get some huge changes, and the game looks fun fun fun! Can't wait!

My figures for the preview imply 1.8m give or take 10% week one, but obviously thats preliminary.

Yes. I don't think Nintendo shiped more than 2m copies.

That's lower than the Media Create article.
