I find those Epic Mickey sales hard to believe. Even with the Wii moving a million this week. Are they advetising the hell out of it or something?

Paraphrasing Wiihaters: "Haha, 3rd party games don't sell on the Wii, Epic Mickey will never come close to 1 million. Disney and Spector made a huge mistake making this for Wii"

Stop making things up, no one said that.

So PS3 had $100 gift card deal in Walmart and Amazon and it went up barely 5%? Pretty weird. Still great numbers all around. Especially Wii numbers are pretty frightening. Over one million in Americas alone.

What's wierd was it's sales shooting up to 390k last week, kinda evens each out.


it's called stealth adjustment, and that 700k for the 360 is aswell.

I don't think ioi cares much about being obvious with adjustments, last week 360 had a wal mart deal and replenished stock. Know what you're talking about before opening your mouth in future psrock.



 

Where did Mario Party DS come from? I thought that game was dead long time.

I did not open my mouth Seece, I typed it. I just think over do those deals because the Wii surprised us last Year. But, I truly believe the 360 is close the Wii this year in terms of sales. Now, since it's 2011, I won't be as rude as you, let me give you some news I saw. I was watching CNN and they said gaming is up 80% this holiday in the US. They were not specific to consoles or games, but I can't wait for NPD numbers.
