Wii sub-20k again. Now will people accept that Iwata was wrong when he said sales will start going up 6-8 weeks after WSR launch? They have been only going down.

And I think it's the biggest ratio PS3 got in favour over the Wii, 9:1.

It seems that Nintendo isn't concerned at all that PS3 might start outselling Wii on a weekly basis, they seem to be standing still and unable to move, as if their lives were in risk if they tried to make the situation better. Really unbelievable.



Proud poster of the 10000th reply at the Official Smash Bros Update Thread.

tag - "I wouldn't trust gamespot, even if it was a live comparison."

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 think we have a few people on this site that might have to eat crow in the next 4 months :P

Now Japan Wii sales are going to rely solely on NSMB Wii because I honestly don't expect Wii Fit+ to have a different effect on sales than WSR did.....

 



PS3-Xbox360 gap : 1.5 millions and going up in PS3 favor !

PS3-Wii gap : 20 millions and going down !

No Valkyria Chronicles??

Nice sales for Uncharted



Battlefield Bad Company 2 > Modern Warfare 2

So YotD including those numbers we have in Japan :

PS3 : 727k
Wii : 848k.

I think we have a race now, especially with FFXIII releasing mid december....

NSMB Wii and Wii Fit + versus FF XIII and GT 5.

 

This will be an interesting race indeed.


Dragon Quest X for Wii will do INSANE numbers. Something like 1.5 million first week and these are low expectations. Don't know the release-date, though.



Imagine not having GamePass on your console...

I'm not positive, but I think someone from SE claimed that they wouldn't release DQ and FF in the same fiscal year.
