Mario Galaxy was 130k. AC is the 3rd biggest Wii launch game after SSBB and MKWii.
It will easily outleg SSBB so it can be the 2nd best non-"wiii" selling title.

 

Cheers! Wonderful, I love Animal Crossing, haven´t played the new one yet but I´m looking forward to it. It seems to be a case of more of the same but for me it´s more of the good in this case



incredible numbers for TLR. Could be a huge Xbox week if those HW numbers are any good.

once more IGN is the laughing stock!!

a game that (according to IGN) has been re-released and rated 7.0 selling almost 0.2 million in 1st day in Japan alone!!

the game is AWESOME and A LOT of new things!!
that need time to unlock....

I don't see how the game selling well (which I don't think IGN ever stated that it wouldn't) make them a laughing stock?

one of the biggest Wii game launch in Japan, and the game gets 7.5?? come on.....

originally said by IGN:

Clearly aimed at either gamers new to the series or ones with incredibly short memory spans

 

how stupid they are, they've played just the begin......

they seem stupid because they give a relatively bad review for such a great and successful game!

 

the online is amazing, a LOT of new items and the new city part has A LOT of new things to do!

but there's no credit for that

i played all Animal Crossing versions, and they are all average compared to the Wii version!

(in terms or graphics, online, things to do, everything)

 



Wii console: 0595 8808 5698 2709
Super Smash Bros Brawl: 1161 1357 5188

Mario Kart Wii: 1633 4506 4319

PES 2008: 1633 5820 0347

DragonBall Z BT 3: 3823 9760 9484

Pokemon Battle Revolution: 3480 2645 9186
Feel free to add me, and sent me a pm with your Friend Code!!

 

Again, you're saying that the game having great opening sales somehow makes them a laughing stock for giving the game an ok review score.

And they do talk about the city and new items. They actually give a pretty thorough review. And it's not like they are the only ones giving the game a score in that area, some sites are reviewing it lower.

I really don't see what IGN did wrong with their review of the game here.



I'm a mod, come to me if there's mod'n to do. 

Chrizum is the best thing to happen to the internet, Period.

Serves me right for challenging his sales predictions!

Bet with dsisister44: Red Steel 2 will sell 1 million within it's first 365 days of sales.

so 165k first day sales for animal crossing!

finally some good news in the land of the rising sun!

175k, actually.

math was never my best thing :>

 

 

 Where did you find this? The OP said 117K...

Anyway, if 176K is real, that's awesome. It should come pretty equal out to SMG's first week (perhaps even beat it).

The stand-alone version sold 117k, the one bundled with Wii Speak sold 58k, together that's 175k.
