does it show the hardware sales?



endurance on 30 August 2007

but yeah there are some differences



johnsobas on 30 August 2007

you're right these charts are very different. FF:CC is quite a bit lower here. Top 10 is all mixed around if you compare them. Judging by Wii Sports only selling 18k wii hardware is gonna be similar.



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

 huh? Similar to what? Why would Wii Sports sales reflect hardware sales in a country where the game is sold seperately?



To cash in my CC rewards points for $300 in Circuit City gift cards to purchase a 360 or not: That is the question.

 Because the attach rate for Wii sports has been solid since the Wii's launch in Japan. It is a fantastic way to gauge the Wii hardware sales before we get them, it always has been. He knows because some of us have been watching the sales charts since launch. When Wii sports sells low like it shows above, Wii is going to have a much lower than normal hardware sellthrough for the week. Below 60k, probably high 40k possibly low 50 thousands. The Wiisports attach neva lies!

Wii sport sold half of the number it did the previous weak, when Wii sold 72k. So if the Wii sport/Wii console sells ratio will be the same the Wii number for this weak should be 36k. And Mario sold even less than half of what it did previous weak. So probably a bad weak for Nintendo but for PS3 it may be not better (HSG5 didn't do well).
