Wii has achieved its casual peak in Japan.

I hope MH3 moves a lot of hardware.

Now, only big traditional games will push Wii hardware in Japan.

The Japanese have had enough casual games-those don't push hardware anymore; saturated the market.

The first week boost doesn't matter that much... what matters is to see if the boost is a sustained one.

wow, that is surprisingly low and I hopefully won't lose a lot of VG$ over that. I just need America and others to pick up the slack on my weeks prediction.

If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy

I also expected a little more, but hopefully it is a more sustained boost.

Currently dreaming of: DKC4 or Sonic the Hedgehog 4 (classic 2D platformers) for WiiWare, Smash Bros. for DSi, New Super Mario World for DSi, a Wii remake or true sequel of Final Fantasy Tactics.

One down, hopefully more awesomeness to come.
