So a...20k debut is great because of the assumption (which i don't buy for one minute) that it will have huge legs ?

Whatever i was commenting on the debut not on what "might" happen in the future. Thankfully we get weekly top-40 for the |U.K so we'll see these "legs"

Will be interesting to see what impact the red Wii had.

FM2011's first weekend on one format beat Pro Evo's first weekend on multiple formats.

Yes, 20k for UK alone, will be more like 40-50k for Europe but I can definitely see a couple of million in 12 months if not more.

so similar to Just Dance ???

That sounds ridiculous

Of course because the size of a debut has to be put in context. You can't directly compare a game like Fallout: New Vegas (which may sell 40% of lifetime sales in the first few days) to something like Wii Party (which sold less than 5% in the first few days). Some games are all about the first week, others are all about long-term sales. Multiplayer games, Wii games and "Nintendo"-related franchises (which this is, despite being a third-party title) are all games that sell well over sustained periods - this fits all 3 so I don't see why it wouldn't follow the pattern.

For a game in the UK that nobody expected to have a large debut then yes, 20k is perfectly fine.

P.S. Not really a fan of your tone.

How is Wii party similar to goldeneye ??

P.S. not really a fan of threats in gaming forums .



Australian PS3 sales pass the one million mark in the past week.
