Those DK sales are depressing.

How can a sequel to a game that sold over a million in Japan fail to give any sort of HW boost?

It was one of only 16 games to shift 1m+ last gen on home consoles.

altough the numbers are certainly low, just like 3d world, the hardware boost wasn't on week 1.

Yeah, let's ignore the Holidays

yeah, let's keep thinking those holiday numbers wouldn't be lower if  3d world wasn't there.

You are digging yourself even deeper by admitting that Holidays were responsible, and not the "Nintendo Magic".

People have already catalogued you for what you are. You have zero credibility. Keep on dreaming.

Bets with Conegamer:

Pandora's Tower will have an opening week of less than 37k in Japan. (Won!)
Pandora's Tower will sell less than 100k lifetime in Japan.
Stakes: 1 week of avatar control for each one.

On Famitsu all top 10 games are for Nintendo platforms.....

Shitty DK;TF debut....depressing

Vita seems to have find some stability.... finally.

Bummer for Wii U. I expected at least a slight boost (over 10k, come on). I guess people are waiting for the PS4. Oh well, I'm still getting DKC.

You expect DK to drive hardware growth week on week in Japan?  For how many weeks?

So dkc 35k in 2 days seems good why all the hate?

Four days.  Pretty much no game gets a seven day first week.  I don't know why every time a game underperforms we get people saying it was only __ days.
