Forums - Sales - Yesterday was Wii Fit day in the VG Chartz store

Preorder charts would be cool. Even if they only had data from vgchartz amazon store.... such a small sample set, your order would have a greater influce on the rankings.

@ioi

can you not do a BESTSELLERS section in the Amazon VG chartz store



All hail the KING, Andrespetmonkey

I have a BMI of around 17-17.4 . I really dont need WiiFit for working out. But if this game gets so big that OTHER awesome games use the balance board, I may have to pick it up. I dont know about you guys, but go watch the trailer for We Ski. It actually looks relatively fun.

I am going to do a weekly report every Sunday night of the most preordered and most bought items in the VG Chartz Store for the previous week.

As we keep saying, the data is unlikely to resemble the main weekly data much to begin with but hopefully as things grow and i can maybe apply some adjustment factors we could use it to put out preliminary data in much the same way as we do with Japanese figures and similarly with pre-order information. Will give a very rough idea how things should pan out for the week (new releases especially) and like you say will show the community (either in the same article or a seperate one) what you guys specifically are purchasing.

Should be interesting...

 You should also include current totals of popular games right before launch, so we know how many were preordered through the store.  Like Wii Fit for example, It would be nice to know the running total the Sunday before launch.

Speaking of best sellers.... some of the vg store ads are sohwing best sells. I assume Amazon does this automaticallly beased on actual sales directed from this site....

So, the big question.... Who bough Zelda for the gamecube??? I am not surprised about anything else in the list, but the game cube version... it's not even any less than the wii version....

Has anyone else done an order with Amazon via VGChartz and have Amazon recognize you, but show your Shopping Cart as empty (if you had things in it already at Amazon)? Does VGChartz only get credit if we place it in our shopping cart via the VGChartz store?



BAM! There it is!

I think he meant browsing in another window, and then before checking out clicking through the VGChartz store and having everything still be in your cart.

I already had a cart ready to purchase from amazon, so I came to VGChartz so it would give you credit, and upon accessing Amazon through my cart was empty. If I went back to Amazon the items were still in the cart. So I dumped 'em out, came back here and put them back in from this site, then purchased.

Just wondering if there was a way to open your existing amazon cart without reloading it.

Hope that all made sense.

With a marketing budget of $40 million, it's going to sell big in the U.S. early on and probably suffer from OOS problems. It'll have long legs too, possibly outselling Brawl.

I'm a little suprised that some think the game will perform much better in the US - how come?

 cause a higher percentage of Americans are overweight and many will catch onto the new fitness fad. (not implying Wii fit is a fad cause it will have amazing legs)
