Realistically? I'd say Animal Crossing: City Folk and Wii Sports Resort are the most likely candidates for legendary status of the recently announced titles, with Wii Music being a "maybe" (that one really depends on how many people who dislike Guitar Hero and Rock Band are drawn to it). All three have demographic-free appeal to them, which combined with effective advertising and excellent design is a one-way ticket to success.

It's pretty much guaranteed that all the sequels to established IP's will sell well, like Gears 2, Fable 2, Resistance 2, GT5, etc... Personally I love to see new IP hit it big, like Bioshock and Mass Effect each closing in on 2 million on the 360 alone. For that reason I'd love to see Alan Wake do well next year.



Wii Sports: Resort, Wii Music, Animal Crossing Wii, Mario Super Sluggers, SW: Clone Wars, SW:TFU, GH:WT, Rock Band 2, CoD:WaW.

Bets with Conegamer:

Pandora's Tower will have an opening week of less than 37k in Japan. (Won!)
Pandora's Tower will sell less than 100k lifetime in Japan.
Stakes: 1 week of avatar control for each one.

Fullfilled Prophecies

Wii titles seem to be a given regarding commercial success. Critical reception seems to vary by opinion.
