I already really wonder what Monster Hunter 3 can do for Wii hardware in Japan

That's the increase for the Wii I was expecting. Can Mario Kart Wii hit two million before it launches in NA?

no - that would be a dropoff rate of only like 5-10%

It could be close at least... It's at 1.51 million with Others data in for this week, add another 150k (perhaps more) for Japan this week, then another 100k for Japan next week and all you need is a good 300k from Others to get to 2 million. Who knows. Depends on how Japan does this week, which will determine how well it does next week.

The DS is just crazy. 190k, with no new releases, not even recent new releases. Simply amazing.

You are right, according to Japan preview it is 142K this week plus another 60-80K next week in Japan means MK Wii only needs another 300K which is very possible considering the drop off from last week is around 20% less.

yes - a very small drop indeed

Can't wait till it launches in NA

yes, i'm well aware its not as big in america, but a 5-10k gap when GT5:P is being released is not going to happen, ps3 will beat the 360 by at least 50k ww.

Guess you were wrong. Both PS3 and 360 increased and PS3 ended up winning by just over 5,000. At this point it won't beat 360 by 50k since Japan sales haven't been impressive for either console.

i was indeed wrong, but eagleeye was predicting 5-10k ww difference, so i was closer than he was. since its approx 30k. difference including japan.

True, but I was predicting that because I forgot about GT5P. For what its worth, I would have said 20k if I remembered, and it looks like it will be 30k now.

Anyhow, I think PS3 owners expected more. But you could still have the last laugh, you never know when adjustments will be made.
