Around the Network

mario kart is a consistent seller. Its not front loaded like say dragon quest is.



I really had it pegged higher...
It'll have the best legs of any Ninty game so far though!



I'll only believe VGchartz. Let me see what y-Koron, Ioi or the Source say about it.



I am Washu-bot B, loyal servant of Final-Fan, the greatest scientific genius in the universe!


Will it sell out it's first shipment on week 1?



Prepare for termination! It is the only logical thing to do, for I am only loyal to Megatron.

no it won't, and for that i blame wii fit



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

It will definitely sell more than GT5P... a lot more.

I even think that it will outsell the full GT5 in lifetime sales.
