Are there pictures anywhere online from today ay the Nintendo Store in NYC? Since that's the only place to get it before Wednesday, I bet there was a mob today. I did see some pictures from Central Park on another thread...



BAM! There it is!

1st Week in NA: 600k
1st Month in NA: 1.1m
End of 2008 NA: 8m
Lifetime sales NA: 50m
Lifetime sales WW: 100m



WiiFit will be 2008 #1 selling game in NORTH AMERICA!  
End of '08 Predictions: Wii - 48m X360 - 25m  PS3 - 19m
Wii monthly NA sales will top 400k every month in '08. *Jan sales ruined it. Grrrr!*
WiiFit will top 1m in sales in its first month of release in North America.
MGS4 will NOT be released in '08. *Darn it!* FF13 will NOT be released in '08.
Rockband Wii will top 600k in first month sales in North America.
WiiFit will pass the PS3 WW sales by Xmas '09.

In less than 6 months Wii Fit will have outsold the PS3 in Japan. I am thinking Wii Fit can do it in about the same time here in North America.

 Wii Fit already outsold the PS3 in Japan.

I was going by VGChartz numbers.

Then it will have sold more than PS3 at the end of the month.

and wii fit continues to sell over 5x as many units/week then the PS3 in Japan even though it's been out about 29 weeks.

I know several people who are not into video games and they asked me about wii fit. It's going to sell huge over the next few years, way more than the PS3.

That said, many, many, many of those will go to people who would never have purchased a video console if not for wii fit.
