it is only some 200K behind Fit in japan according to vgchartz.

my bad, 200k not 600k

but the point stands

smash only outsold wii fit by 9,000 units the past three weeks COMBINED

it'll take years to catch up at that rate...and at the same point in time in their life, wii fit sold 92k while ssbb sold 39k

again, in the next 2 weeks u will see ssbb sell less per week than wii fit and that will continue for the next 5 years

 

ssbb had a strong launch that allowed it to catch up most of the way to wii fit, but now that they blew their load, wii fit has more stamina so ssbb will just fall further and further behind, eventually being further behind wii fit than it was before smash launched



Bets:Missed by 420k I bet leo-j vg$500 that wii will sell 31 million by 7/31/08.  Sorry, I don't think he has enough vg$ to make it with all of u that wish you could. Hit, with room to spare I bet kingofwale a 1-week ban that wii Americas ltd sales>360 Americas ltd sales as of the numbers for week ending 7/05/08 (using vgchartz homepage #s)

Predictions:

Wii will sell 18-20mil by 12/31/07  CHECKWii will sell 45mil+ WW by 12/31/08Wii will surpass PS2 sales WW by 11/17/11 (5yr anniversary)Wii Fit will hit 12mil sales in 2009MKWii+SSBB+Wii Fit+SMG > 50 mil sales by 2010 > gta4+mgs+gt5+ff13+haze+lbp

@montana. I actually expect GTAIV to be almost equal between the two consoles for life sales, so if it sold 10mil on 360 that would mean 20mil combined.

I expect roughly 6mil each console, half of which will be sold in the first 5 weeks (half of total, not half each, because 360 version is obviously going to start faster)



as expected, wii fit outsold ssbb in japan last week...i expect wii fit should stay above ssbb in japan for the longterm now....wii fit will only pull away from ssbb...so i stand by my point i made to those saying ssbb was catching up with wii fit in japan...it wasn't catching up, it was simply getting its initial sales which didn't equal wii fit's ltd sales and now will sell less than wii fit each week for the foreseeable future, ending up further behind wii fit within a year or so than it was before it launched
