Wii Fit = 250 k = + 44%
Smash Bros Brawl = 800 k !!!! = + 20%

yea,its realy strange,but i think we should wait for media create numbers to compare, they'r always have a deffrence

The bump in PS3 sales during the release week of Dynasty Warriors also saw the release of the PS3 40GB version alongside the white PS3. The new hardware was probably a bigger force behind the increase of hardware sales than Dynasty Warriors.
ye, but dynasty Warriors boost sales of ps3 because its a popular franchise their

Yes , it's true but now , there is a very cheap bundle , it's a little the same case.
A game sold by 170 k + 40 GB = + 235% and a very cheap bundle + new games sold by 300 k = just 8% ??

Devil May Cry is a popular franchise too. 210k and 170 k , we can say it's the same.
Where did you read that the DMC4 bundle will be cheaper than previous bundles?
Those hardware numbers do seem quite low all around.
these numbers aren't right... lets see media create...
psn- tokila
add me, the more the merrier.

I meant hardware, and like I said it doesn't matter, Nintendo could release 10K every week, and people would still wait to buy it, if they wanted to play Brawl. You don't have any proof that this is due to low demand or that Nintendo isn't stockpiling, all you have is speculation based on a premise that doesn't have any support, you assume that Nintendo will ship their hardware as you think they will. |
If not, then you are simply speculating that the vast majority of people in Japan who are buying Brawl don't already have a Wii, or that they didn't buy one in advance knowing full well that the game was coming out.
Unlike the PS3, I really don't believe anyone has been "holding out" on buying a Wii until certain games were released. The initial price was low enough (price is seen as a lower priority among Japanese gamers anyway) and there has been enough excitement over the platform even well before there were any killer apps other than Wii Sports.
I'm sure that as more consoles are sold, Brawl will continue to sell at roughly a 1:3.3 attach rate which is very high. That is about the attach rate Melee saw with the GC. But I don't think millions of gamers are holding off on a purchase of a Wii in order to buy Brawl. Apparently, Nintendo doesn't either or they would have released more hardware inventory along with the launch.
