Don't downplay the obvious success of the Udraw.
It's doing great for a new peripherical with low hype surrounding it.

It's currently outselling Wii Party, Super Mario Galaxy 2, Kirby Epic Yarn, Fable 3, Sports Champions (a bundled game), and Gran Turismo 5 in America. The thing to remember is that this game hasn't even been released in Europe yet! |
That doesn't matter! Everyone knows 3rd party games don't sell on Wii, it's just d0med, you know.

No it's the Holdiay boost. Why do you always pretend I'm trolling?

Perhaps he suspects trolling because you should explain why it is from the holiday boost instead of just blabbing out single-sentence statements based on your opinion and not actual facts.

Not always, only twice.
This is an impressive boost and sales for a game that wasn't meant to be big, it's doing amazingly well, you can't deny that.

What? Are you new around here?
I don't need to explain anything. Everybody who's been here for at least 1-2 years perfectly knows about the Holiday boost. You know the time of the year where people buy gifts...?
And it applies to everything not just video games. TVs, movies, CDs, cooking tools, whatever.
Jeez people use your head.

And I never denied the amazing numbers. I find them impressive myself and definitely unexpected.
I simply explained why it's going up. And that explanation is the Holiday boost. It applies to all games even the ones which sales are low. It's a question of percentages.
I bought the tablet and both extra games, and I can honestly say that my expectations were far exceeded.
Also worth noting is the fact that the two standalone uDraw titles, Dood's Big Adventure and Pictionary, have also increased in sales every week:

I know Toys R Us was doing a nationwide deal where if you bought the tablet, you got one of the two games for free. It took me three days to find a store that had Pictionary, and I freaking work at a video game store. I had to go to lame ass Gamestop.

I've been here a while plus I work in the game industry. I know my facts, but I also take the time to explain them rather than just mouthing-off short meaningless opinions.

You explained why it was going up, alright, every game gets the holiday boost.
Then again, it's on track to outsell Kirby's Epic Yarn, and many other Nintendo titles, only with American numbers, so apart from the obvious holiday boost the game is recieving word of mouth, and will keep selling.
