2 days - 2 days where the majority of sales happened.

It never works like that, especially now that Nintendo's games are targeting the hardcore audience again.

Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

according to the math of someone a few pages back that places mk week at around 30k? or 35k. PS4 on Infamous (also released on a friday like MK8) week sold ~100k

 

someone correct me if I'm wrong

cause if that's true then the "two days excuse" doesn't cut it


You're wrong out the door ...mario kart had two days of sells infamous had a full week....also sales was only accounted for Friday and Saturday for Mario kart not even a whole weekend

Infamous came out on a Friday.

For those curious June so far X1 > PS4 but Sony giving a hell of a fight

So basically, what X1 will have gained this month may not be enough for making up the deficit from May.

Wait so people are fine with the whole 2 days thing but were all happy and didn't question it when VGChartz has Wii U at 86k for the week of the 31st? When in actuality its less than that for the whole month?? Thats a MASSIVE overtracking


Anything that make them sleep better.

How about a quarter past... No

That's what SEGA fans were saying in 2000.

Apples and oranges, my friend. SEGA was in a disastrous financial state in 2000 - a stark contrast to Nintendo. They could continue to lose generation after generation and still have the capital to remain relevant.

And you think the shareholders are gonna be happy with losing for 15 years until they figure it out? They want money and results NOW, not a decade and a half from now. Nitnendo might not HAVE to do so to survive, but their shareholders might force them to so they could see some profit before 2030.
