Look at dance central sales on 360...

in america

125,069

40,810

56,997

^The sales went up! Next week it will be at about 80k i think with black friday.

Now let's look at europe sales for this

34,957

25,935

^A very little drop off. I expect it to be at about 30k next week with rising 360 sales.

What's the point of this? It's showing the 360 is starting to have the casual selling power the wii has where games sell more a few weeks after their first weeks.

Word of mouth is very good.  I'm buying this game next week.

Casual gamers love Xbox360.  I am one of em.

Yup, there's enough data to prove a trend.


That's a bit mean Rol. Look at the sales. I mean, it went up!!!

I mean, it's so fucking obvious. You gotta be a fanboy not to notice it.

It would be more interesting to discuss the sales curve of Game Party 3 which went sharply up 52 weeks after release.

i believe the same can happen to dance central next christmas. thats if dance central 2 doesnt come out (Which it probably will)

This is undeniable proof that Dance Central will continue to sell 50K a week for over a year.

Not going to happen. First off, you need to know why Game Party 3's sales went up in the first place. It's very probable that Wii Party, which released at that time, is the cause. Or better said, uneducated consumers who can't remember the name of a game.

So you better cross your fingers that Nintendo releases an amazing dancing game for Kinect next fall.

are customers really that stupid? I dont think they get the games mixed up, i think just because it has similar wording in the title they think it will be similar gameplay..

I think it could have been harsher. Rol has become nicer over the years.
