Btw how much did the original Wii Fit do opening week? I was gonna say "yay Wii Fit U bombed!" but then it doesn't seem like the kinda game to have a big first week as opposed to long legs.

Wii Fit (May 2007) sold 620,674 in the US opening week.

Wii Fit Plus (Oct 2009) sold 177,924 in its US opening week.

Wii Fit U released on Jan 10, 2014, the Chart is from Jan 11, so those 22,801 are from 1 day of sales in the US.

What a freak drop. Nintendogs drop friend?

for the life of me i cant imagine why people thought WIi Fit U was going to do anything

Kinda interesting that both 3DS and Wii U are up YoY in America/Europe but down in Japan.

When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.

Ps4 will do as much as they there able to produce. obviously not that much supply is going to north America at the moment. Any little shipment they get it's sold out instantly.

How much you expect?? 5M? That would be high number going by WiiU numbers... probably 1M LTD.

Hard to say. Wii U isn't bringing in the casuals or the hardcores just yet, but I'd say selling maybe 1 million by the end of the year.

I Bet if the balance registered 3 or 4 kg (8lbs) less it would sell a lot.

Hard to say. Wii U isn't bringing in the casuals or the hardcores just yet, but I'd say the lowest being maybe 1 million lifetime.

That is the kind of drop that is almost unheard of.

And if X1 would have been released in the rest of the countries in Europe, the numbers would be quite different. what is the purpose of playing the "what if" game?

More 20k?

Well, as I said, no use to play the "what if"-game.
