How accurate is Amazon anyway? I've seen you posting about this before, and somethings don't end up as well as Amazon makes it seem. |
to be fair how accurate is COMG? Anyway amazon shows demand, the thing is you have to pay attention to it daily. Cuz being #1 on pre orders on day 1 is a good sign, maintaining it is the key. Ex: GE2 was #1 for a couple of weeks when first was ready for pre orders and then maintained top 20 for a couple of months before release where is MH4 stayed in the top 5 for several months. Look at their sales.
Also to compare MK8, DK just made the top 100 in the last 2 weeks then moved up barelyover top 20 in its last 2-3 days before release.
Pikmin 3 made it inthe top 100 for awhile then jumped to the top 10 with its last 2 weeks of pre orders.
Wat does this mean? Just a good sign, nthing else!

I'm not saying COMG is all that accurate, I was just saying Amazon isn't either.
However, the way you put it makes sense. Let's hope MK8 stays in the Top 10 and then goes back up to Number 1 with it's final week. That would be an amazing sign alright.
I don't know the figures of MK Wii's first week, but should double easily what Mario 3d world did. So its pretty safe to say 250k FW.

Even higher than The Wonderful 101?

top 20 is fine, it is overv 3 months away :)

Mario Kart Wii sold over 1 million in the US, 500,000 in Europe, and about 600,000 in Japan all in their first week of release.

Mario Kart DD sold 200k, so i would say between 150k-200k
Predictions for end of 2014 HW sales:
PS4: 17m XB1: 10m WiiU: 10m Vita: 10m
I'd say 275k first week with a nice bump for Wii U hardware to the 40-50k range. But it will drop back down after 2-3 weeks.
I think it will also be the only Wii U game to top 1 million copies without bundling.
