Pretty impressive!

Funny to think that just a few weeks ago I didn't really have any high sales expectations for its launch. The way things are sounding now, its gonna do pretty well.

I already know I want a sequel to launch Nintendo's next home console and an updated port of this game for their next handheld

They shipped north of 100k so its good for a new IP on the Wii U either way.

I was expecting this game to do well in japan, due to COMG numbers, but not this well!Hope by the end of weekend nintendo release some numbers =)

My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.

Yeah, that's what marketing can do. If Nintendo did this more rather than rely on games to market themselves it would be great.
