Forums - Sales - Best selling exclusives of 2011!

Pineapple said:

Pokemon Black/White should sell somewhere around 10 million for the year.

Wii Sports and Kinect Adventures should both exceed 10 million, and Sports Resort shouldn't be far behind. 

Mario Kart Wii is selling quite appallingly right now (for the first time ever, it was out of the top 40 last week), so it's likely to sell just 3.5 million this year. (Meaning it's going to be down a bit over 30% YoY)

New Super Mario Bros. Wii is selling even worse, so it's looking at 3 million or so. 

New Super Mario Bros. DS is outselling the Wii version right now. However, the 3DS being out should hurt its holiday sales, so it's looking at around 3 million too. It could have outsold Mario Kart Wii otherwise.

Donkey Kong Returns is already down to NSMB Wii/MKWii/NSMB DS levels, so it should sell less than the others. Around 3 million for that as well, but below all of the above.

Wii Party is ticking in together with the above, so around 3 million for that as well.

Just Dance 2 should follow Mario Kart Wii's 2010 sales from here on out, but with a far weaker holiday due to Just Dance 3. 5 million in the end.

Just Dance 3 should sell like Just Dance 2 did in 2010, so around 5 million for that as well. Probably a bit shy of 5 million.

Wii Fit Plus is also going to follow Mario Kart Wii's 2010, but stay a bit below it most likely. It's also going to have a less great holiday, so 4.5 million or so for it.

Halo Reach is still ticking in nicely, and should sell around 2.5 million for the year.

GT5 is a tough one to predict. Its legs so far haven't been that great, but it's a franchise Sony values very highly. Because Sony is going to treat it well, I'll say 2.75 million.

 Killzone 3 is selling like Killzone 2 did. 2.5 million.

Nintendogs 3DS should also sell around 3 million, but that's mostly a wild guess based on how the DS evergreens started out.

 

(I'm not going to bother predicting what the unreleased games will sell, so I'm ignoring them for now).


Amazing prediction!



Around the Network

Gears 3 will be the best selling exclusive



I trust no one, not even myself.

Where is Kinect Adventures


Sorry bud no kinect adventures, wii sports, or sports champions.

 

Wii fit plus but no Kinect adventures. Odd logic there

 


so you want me to remove wii sports plus?


just wondering why wii fit plus ( a game bundled with an accessory) is on the list but kinect adventures (a game bundled with an accessory) is not. Why one and not the other? I'm not bothered if they are on there or not but you should at least be consistent about what is excluded.

Clearly the top spot this year is between COD and Pokemon



Close fight between Wii Sports and Kinect Adventures.



 

You should expand that list to the top 25 man.

Cod will most likely destroy Pokémon (multi), it's not exclusive though


Tecnically pokemon is multi as well. Pokemon Black and White are 2 different games for the same console.
