Forums - Sales - Nintendo: Our digital sales are soaring

No surprise on FE digital sales considering it was near impossible to find a physical copy at retail for awhile after its launch. Took me about 3-4 weeks after launch to finally track down a copy (which was the last one at a Gamestop after visiting another Gamestop that had to call around to make sure there was any copies left).

"What I would say about Wii U - and what Mr. Iwata has said - is that the pace of launches has been slower than we hoped. But as we prepare for E3, the pace of launches for Wii U is going to dramatically increase."

Do it, Nintendo... DO IT GODDAMMIT



This is awesome news ! I really need to get a 3DS. It's either the 3DS or Wii U that I'm getting. We'll see what happens.

i would like to know the digital sales of both luigis mansion 2 and animal crossing.
living in Colombia forced me to buy only digital games :( i can't afford to pay almost 3 times for the physical copy at stores



Only full retail game I got was NSMB2 because of the coin promotion through Club Nintendo. I'm not a big fan of digital copies of retail games. However, I plan on buying AC on the eshop because I feel it is perfect title to always have on 3DS. The spotpass notifications and numerous times I play the game throughout the day make it a must buy from the eshop to me. Smeags probably feels the same way about Fire Emblem but he is just jealous of the physical copy owners.

If my wallet could afford both I would definitely buy both.  I think I may just wait until Mario Kart U is released to buy a Wii U.  On the other hand, the 3DS already has Mario Kart 7, New Super Mario Bros. 2, Super Mario 3D Land, and much more.  Dang it!!  I hate making decisions like this sometimes!!  Lol.
