You know what Wonderbook is right ?
I'll give you a hint if not

Yes... Book of Speels is created by J.K Rowlings.

But I didn't expect this happing after the 10k first week.

Not only created by her it's about Harry Potter and that is more popular in Europe and especially in the UK (for several obvious reasons).
It started low but that is to be expected with a casual game.

It's not about Harry Potter per se. It's about magic and such but doesn't mention anything like Harry Potter.

It is about Harry Potter but due to licensing issues they couldn't use the name.
I heard somewhere its pre-Harry potter or something but on the same "universe"



To those whose said (including me lol) PSASBR didnt make top100 in US at least it made 90 in Europe!!! Though its not good being its only in its second week..... bummer at least ps doing well with everything else!!!

It still suprises me NSMB is still selling even though its over 7 years old???



Oh yeaaaah... Also vita doing good in US and Europe(cant say the same to you Japan!!!) i think AC liberation is now 2nd highest game! while persona 4 trails behind it. To bad for 3ds i thought they do so much better.
( yes i know 3ds is selling well but i hoped they sell 700k at least) Maybe the price drop this week will boost major sales as vita did for itself with bundles!!!



I wish ioi would stop watching the X factor final and update the maddafukken global software chart!

pls do thanks alot :->



When I saw the numbers, I expected the meltdown, but as much as I'd like to mildly troll the Wii U, just for the lulz, I really can't believe it did so low in its launch week in Europe. I suspect incomplete data...
Gratz to XB360 for being still so strong despite being so old, and gratz to PS3 too for keeping the typical gap in favour of XB360 during Xmas season quite low.

People like pezus and vgking said MANY times that "Vita hasn't even been for a year!!" and all that and to have great amounts of patience.

Yet they don't exercise the same restraint in regards to the Wii U.

Let's try to be OBJECTIVE here people....

And check my sig, I'm a PSN trophy whore. No allegiance to the Wii U over here. Just a little something I've noticed on their part.

Anyway, let's look at the FACTS:

Wii U has not been out for very long and it is WAAAAY to early to draw conclusions about how successful it will be. You have to give it AT LEAST a year on the market.

Also, you have to wait for the BIG games to come out.

Any questions??

WiiU will be headed for disappointment come Jan/Feb. Mark my words.

WiiU, 3DS and Vita are going to be the big losers of this generation.


I can't really say anything about what will be the future of the Wii U, but my god you must be retarded if you think the 3DS is going to be a "big loser of this generation."  

The 3DS selling 500k in one week is never bad.  It only did "poorly" because last year it sold much more at the same time.  

But I think you weren't paying attention when it's been announced that Fire Emblem, Animal Crossing, and Luigi's Mansion are coming to North America next year.  All of these games have good potential at selling the system.  

Not only that, but we have Monster Hunter 4 for Japan and global Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate for Wii U and 3DS.  There's Dragon Quest VII for Japan.  There are two more Zelda games that will be coming to the 3DS as well.  A remake and an original.  Super Smash Brothers too.  ALL of these things I listed will boost the sales of the 3DS, and the 3DS' sales are ALREADY quite high, being a third of the sales of the PS3 or 360's and being out for a fifth of the time.  Seriously?
