American Chart for Week Ending 17th May 2008

No.1

Carnival Games

Take 2

38

16,726

1,013,096

Once again Take 2 make another sales Miracle. And it is climbing toward Double Platinum in the worldwide sales. Em...I bet the re-release of GTA III(anyone) on Wii will even sell less than Carnival Games.

*re-writes entire message to be relevant to thread*

I actually suppose it's possible to sell good on Wii considering that it seems like a large portion of the GTA fanbase hasn't bought a HD console, some of them may own a Wii.

Nobody is crazy enough to accuse me of being sane.

The game is super cheap and has great word of mouth and advertising throughout some new demographics.

This is really old news.

The sales of this game should convince Take-Two to bring other projects to the Wii.

Leatherhat on July 6th, 2012 3pm. Vita sales:"3 mil for COD 2 mil for AC. Maybe more. " thehusbo on July 6th, 2012 5pm. Vita sales:"5 mil for COD 2.2 mil for AC."

My friend actually liked this game. I know nothing about it, but I assume it's pretty poor, considering how everybody here always groans over it.

Look at the title. It's 1 million in US, not 1 million WW.
