nice boost ! Wii Sports resort is going to be huge, i do think that Wii sales might improve compared to last few weeks. Its good to see such "casual" game moving hardware, now lets wait for the US.
Home consoles in Japan are still doing bad

I expect the opposite, based on the japanese Wii sales in the previous month.

It was at 14-16 000/week sales before WSR released, first increased with 2k, got even more increase in the next week, and since that, it has better sales than previously.

..........? Um, are you forgetting the Monster Hunter 3/Black Wii Bundle?
Leatherhat on July 6th, 2012 3pm. Vita sales:"3 mil for COD 2 mil for AC. Maybe more. " thehusbo on July 6th, 2012 5pm. Vita sales:"5 mil for COD 2.2 mil for AC."

I think that title belongs to Others and is America not US.

Well, that makes more sense.
I doubt it would be a one week boost though. Wii sales may teeter around 100k for a while longer.

Yeah, I expect WSR will provide a long-term hardware boost. It won't spike, it'll just push up the baseline and slowly settle down over many months.

A very healthy boost in Others for Wii hardware in my opinion, especially considering that A) Wii Sports Resort was expected to only sell to previous Wii owners and B) that games in others usually have more legs than in other regions, even core games. Since WSR is more of a casual title, I think the hardware boost should last for quite a while.
I want to see a 360/ps3 boost.

In Europe the second week is often better or almost as good as the first week.
It's legs land, especially for a game like WSR. Hopefully the hardware boost will last a few months at least.
