Forums - Sales Discussion - Which console's big holiday titles will sell the most?

Wii Master, I didn't explicitly put it my last post, but that is why I'm talking about the last 2 spots on the Wii. New Super Mario Bros. Wii Fit Plus and Mario and Sonic will obviously take the top 3 spots on the Wii, but the 4th and 5th spots are up for grabs.

Because he kept tracking the top 5 until now: NSMBW is not out so virtually it's not in the top 5, even if will be the top spot  Wii game surely.

The first 3 spots are locked but the other two are difficult to predict.



CURRENTLY PLAYING: Xenoblade (Wii), Super mario 3D land (3DS), Guild Wars (PC)

 

oik so i guess once its nov 15 dj hero will be replaced with nsmbwii!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Shamelessly bumping my own thread (because nobody posted with this week’s update) to ask which games do you think will take the 4 and 5 spots on the Wii top 5 list? As I and others have mentioned multiple times in this thread, those 2 spots are the real vulnerability for the Wii in this contest, but still there should be a couple of games that at least put up some respectable numbers unlike the current two games. I think of the games left to be released the likely candidates are DJ Hero, Band Hero, Lego Rock Band, Need for Speed Nitro, Rabbids Go Home, Shaun White Snowboarding, Call of Duty Modern Warfare Reflex, Resident Evil Darkside Chronicles, and Tony Hawk Ride. I think pretty much all of these games will sell a similar amount by the end of the year, with around 300,000-500,000. But I’m going with Tony Hawk Ride and DJ Hero as taking the last two spots. What does everyone else think?

Given last years sales I would give Rabbids Go Home the biggest chance to end up in the top 5. But considering its not a party game this time around and there hardly seems to be any hype for it I doubt it will see similar sales. I really can't make an educated guess between the games mentioned above.

Wii_Master, once New Super Mario Bros. Wii releases, it will bump what ever is number 5 at that time off the list. By then DJ Hero will have at least passed Star Wars Clone Wars and maybe Fifa, so it is more likely one of those games will be bumped from the list. But yes once, NSMB Wii releases it will definitely be in the list, and probably will at least take the #2 spot almost immediately.

Koffieboon, It will be interesting to see Rabbids sells, the last game did really well, but like you said this game is in a different genre so it is hard to predict how it will do.



i just noticed wii is only 643,063 behind the 360 and so when nsmbwii releases it will push it past the 360 and i think it might also push it past ps3 its plausible

^^^oh yeah....thats true sorry completely forgot..nsmbwii on the mind!!!!!!!lol anyway so yeah so now i looked at the pre orders so after modernwarfare i expect 360 tobe first wii to stay third and ps3 to be second...and then when nsmbwii releases i expect 360 to stay first and wii to come second pushing ps3 behind...and then lastly by mid-december i expect modern warfare to have died down abt 70% and since nsmbwii is mario i expect to have only died down at max 30% pushing wii to first, 360 second and lastly comes the ps3..

Final fantasy 13 says hI.

The Wii will sell more software, but it's everything put together.

Mario KART, Wii Fit will also sell well, but The HD consoles have bigger games coming up.
