First shipments of Zelda for DS will be more than 300k.



If you need something about Japanese market from the perspective of Japanese, please contact me.

good numbers for RE4, expecting 100k in tis lifetime.



thank you.

nothing really interesting though, RE starting within expectations but not great.



Currently Playing: Skies of Arcadia Legends (GC), Dragon Quest IV (DS)

Last Game beaten: The Rub Rabbits(DS)

RE4 didn't do as well as I expected. Mario Kart back in the top 10 is interesting. Top 10: 6 DS, 3 Wii, 1 PS2, same old same old.

 On Zelda DS shipments could this be the game that brings the series back in Japan?



Looks like the Wii numbers are getting back on track. If these numbers hold, Wii could be 1+ million for June WW.

RE4 did better than I expected. I mean RE4 didn't sell nearly as well in Japan as it did in the US and its a port of 2 year old game. I didn't think it would break a 100k lifetime, looks like I could be mistaken. We will see over the next few weeks.

I think it should be more

 I don't understand why it hasn't been AT LEAST 1M units/month for the last few months.  They have said they are capable of making 1M units/month and have been ramping up production.  They should be well over that number by now.  If they don't fix the issue with supply soon (and I mean like right now) they may face a situation where Sony and MS drop their prices and MS takes a whole lot of wii's potential customer base away from them this holiday.  If N ends up having to drop their price on the console to stay at a "discount" over the xbox, they will have left a hellavu lot of money on the table from systems the *could have sold* during the supply shortage.



I hate trolls.

Systems I currently own:  360, PS3, Wii, DS Lite (2)
Systems I've owned: PS2, PS1, Dreamcast, Saturn, 3DO, Genesis, Gamecube, N64, SNES, NES, GBA, GB, C64, Amiga, Atari 2600 and 5200, Sega Game Gear, Vectrex, Intellivision, Pong.  Yes, Pong.

I'm not too worried about production levels. I assume the are salting away 10% for product launches and another 10% for the holidays. They are also pumping out 2 million DS a month. Pretty amazing to ship over 3 million hardware units in June.
