Afrika and Battlefield: Bad Company. It also seems that demand for the Wii is dying. 2 months ago it was at 45k, now it's at 25k. I guess that's why new colors are coming.

 

Come on, you can do better, trolling is your best ability.

Wii isn't dying anywhere. Same happened last year, when Wii started to dip and PS3 outsold it for 2 miserable weeks. Now things are being reversed, people are losing interest in the PS3 and 360 is going stronger, and in Sony's homeland.

Wii could be anywhere between 35k and 25k, there was never such a high discrepancy between the 2 trackers. PS3 is selling on par with PS2, that's one thing to be ashamed of.

Also Nintendo never mentioned new colours, whereas Sony has released not only several different colours of PS3's, but also a lot of bundles, and sales never rise.

Please try again later.

 

Sales actually rose when MGS4 came out.

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.

Maybe people who were saving up to buy, finally saved up enough cash for it.

The boost lasted for about a month before sales returned to normal.

Way to avoid my whole point, one can never expect more from a troll, lesson learned.

It depends of what is your definition of a boost because the 50K sales were only for 1 week.
