is ther something nintendo can do about all theese flops? hopefully the games develop some legs but the developers are the must hurt in this situation, and if this keeps up, even with larger install base they will star pulling their support for the system.

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.

i wouldn't be so quick to call it a bomb, if it follows the same pattern as the first one it will sell 400k. Not saying it will for sure but you have to consider past trends. It's not exactly a new IP, i mean it's mario and sonic...

hmm.. WE10 might top 200k first week making PES10 a million seller this week (next week of data)

Infamous gets very close to the million WW with this additional 12-16k as well


3D Dot Game Heroes performs roughly like I expected, for the "hype" seemed to be stronger in the west than it ever was in Japan

Winning Eleven 2010 PS3　142000　53%
Nice, over 200k first week. Also with some bundles, PS3 will be probably at 40k+.

Sadly, 3D Dot Game Heroes　7700　38% bombed. I expected it to sell 100k LTD in Japan. Now it will be hard to do that, unless it will have good legs.

Infamous　10000　46%
Well, compared to uncharted 2 not so great.

Mario Sonic　7800　10%
Wow, real bomba. I expected it to sell atleast 300k and sell some Wii. But so far, after Super Robot Taisen Neo it looks like not many games can move Wii HW.
Next week is Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: The Crystal Bearers.
