Forums - Sales Discussion - What is the Word on this Weeks NA Chartz

Wii back over 50% for the week, more so when Japan's numbers come in. But not close to the weekly amount of production yet. 1/4 of 1.8M = 450K produced a week. February's sales will truly show if the Wii is supply constrained even at the current rate of production.

You're much more likely to see Nintendo sell 300-350k in normal weeks, holding back the rest of the units for major releases or holiday periods. Of course, those are already insane DS-level numbers regardless...

Expect Wii to outsell 360/PS3 combined whenever the supply isn't ridiculously contrained. Even with minimal American sales the last two weeks, Wii did move 250k units/week worldwide. This week will be quite a bit above that.

I think people over estimate burnout a bit, the series has never been THAT successful even on its highest point. It will do well, but probably not amazing.



Note: Some games in my collection are no longer owned, but have owned.

Is NMH on track to be Suda's best selling game?

It was already officially stated that the whole shipment of NMH is sold out. Ubisoft promised new shipments within a week.

Must do better than expected.



NMH is supply constrained. I predict 50k.
