Since it sold out, I wouldn't be surprised if there's a lot of error in prelim data. No offense meant for ioi and what have you, I just know that in those cases, it's hard to get a strong sampling.

All the same, it's exciting news.

If the numbers wind up being lower this week than reported, then in all probability it will be higher next week.

Dragon Quest isn't very attractive to the casual crowd. SSBB appeals to just about everyone. Two different situations.

Here's an amazing stat. The Wii could have 11 titles this week with over 500k sales in Japan.

The PS3 and 360 have ZERO titles over 500k sales in Japan.

Woo hoo@!#!@#

Nintendo hasn't seen domination like this since 1991.
