Lol, the site now has a 'site search' function but I totally back you in your wanting to creat yet another Wii Fit thread. Wii Fit is huge. It will be the next Body For Life in America.

It launched all over Europe. This is day 1 sales only, so expect a pretty good second week.

@shams:

Ah - you are right (had to hunt for it), but this is a slightly different article

It's not different and it's all based on chart-track data that was avalible yesterday and was already posted in PAL Charts thread.

Yeah, but these sales (230k) are from the UK only - not from the rest of Europe.

@kamil: Yeah, I gather the original source of the information was the same. My grab was from gamesindustry, which I gather based their info on the same one that lombard used.

If it was "just" a 'charts update', I wouldn't have posted.

I don't get it, in the Netherlands WII Fit is not even in the charts. Totally not interested in the low lands? I would have bought it here in the Netherlands but have to wait for the US version, which is for the first time it will cost me more than buying in Europe
