Forums - Nintendo - Top 5 Worldwide all Wii xxxx games

Hmm, that subject was kinda vague. Post your predictions, do you think at any time of the generation we will see games in the Wii series in all of the top 5 worldwide sales positions for a week.

 

At the moment we have Wii Sports, Wii Play and Wii Fit that live in the top 5, occasionally bowing out to some new release. Wii Music will clearly reach the top 5, but who knows if it will stay there until the release of Wii Sports resort.

 

Assuming it doesn't, I'm assuming wii Sports resort will have the same sort of sales pattern as Wii Play, so if Wii Fit keeps up its legs that's 4, all Ninty would need to do is release one more Wii game.

 

Thoughts? Predictions?

Hmm, depends if the Wii doesn't get bundled with Wii Sports: Resort.
If it doesn't then yes. What we will see though is the top 5 with Wii games only.

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

I don't think adult video games are going to catch on that strongly (in this generation, at least), especially on the Wii.

We've seen top 5 Wii games many times already.

This is true and it also proves that a game sells more if you put Wii in the title.  This is also true for systems.  This is why Microsoft is changing the name of their system to the XBOX Wii 60.

Your forgetting Animal Crossing sales. Every Animal Crossing game without fail has broken the million mark and the DS version topped the global charts for months if I remember correctly. True their is a few months between each big release when Nintendo's titles will fall off the global charts!

That being said I don't thin Nintendo will control the top five untill next fall. Why? Because Nintendo has been banking first party titles for the inevitable rainy day (When Wii's actually remain in stock). Thats when Nintendo is going to unleash hell and flood the market with innovative and hardcore games galor. So far in Nintendo's bank vault we have (Donkey Kong , Zelda , Pikmin3) all three games should either be complete or near completion. According to Nintendo's President at TGS 2005 a new Zelda and Donkey Kong game were in the works. It has been 3yrs since then and you know that those games must be near completion. Then Miyamoto let Pikmin3 slip but he said he only announces games nearly completed. Lastly during the GameCube era Nintendo released a minimum of 12 big games each year. Since the GameCube era Nintendo's numbers have dropped while their studios expanded and Nintendo aquired new studios and properties.

So what am I saying. When Nintendo pulls the trigger and unviels those banked games and releases them one a month like they did on the GameCube. Were talking all five top spots in the bank for sure. Also Wii's will be back out of stock! Simple math!

It's a pity SSBB wasn't called "super wii brothers". Also, I believe at some point that the top 5 will consist of wii titles with the word "wii" in their name.



*Shivers* I like many Wii games, non of which are the Wii titles... I think Nintendo is having too much success selling mediocre games(and even really bad games...). I hope this doesn't happen.
