Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Yay! Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World Japan preorders at 150k!

yushire on 30 June 2008

The more fascinating was they cant sell over 200,000 because of the high demand and low supply. Seem even Namco exceeds what there expectations on the game. And Super Mario Sluggers really surprised me, definitely have legs still selling 25,000 in its second week. I thought it will drop to the 10,000s Namco Bandai was very happy on the outcome right now.

This is the solid proof that quality 3rd party games do sell on the Wii, the myth was debunked

According to Famitsu TOS: Dawn of the New World has sold 151k in its first week, I expected a little bit more since first day sales were about 120k.

if thats the case than it could be supply constrained if there was no second shipment. While i think it's a possibility i'm not counting on it having a significant impact.



currently playing: Skyward Sword, Mario Sunshine, Xenoblade Chronicles X
