@Zucas,

Wii Sports Resort didnt boost sales last summer why will it boost sales now?
Wii Fit Plus just takes over for Wii Fit.

As for NSMBWii. I ask again how many consoles per week will sell because of it? I dont think much.


As a nintendo loyalist I'll anwser that the best non bias way I could
Wii Sports Resort didn't  boast sales last summer why would it boast sales now?

Well unlike hardcore/deticated fan franchises which gets all of its sales on the first couple of weeks and you see a big diffrence.
This game does it over time. Its still in the top 10 games.

Wii Fit + just takes over Wii fit

Actually it expands wii fit's life and therefore expands its momtum

As for NSMBW. I ask how many consoles per week will sell becasue of it?

Like I said with Wii sports resort. It'll do it long tem. Also NSMBW is the fasttest selling nintendo game. That might also be the fastest
game to reach 10 million and be the best selling standalone console game.(It will do it) You'll see a bigger boast from NSMBW than wii sports resort

Hope that anwsers your question

No they dont because my argument still applies.

Wii Sports Resort did not have any measurable effects on Wii sales last summer or fall. The only thing that boosted Wii sales was the Holiday season.  Wii sales continued to drop year over year until late November.
 

Wii Fit package (board and software) going into 2009 was still very very hot and was boosting Wii console sales.  Going into 2010 Wii Fit is selling great, but is it software for existing Wii Fit owners or hardware and software for new Wii purchasers.  I suspect it will be more the existing Wii Fit owners getting upgraded software. 

That leaves a game that has sold what like 7 million copies to boost new hardware sales.  Yeah right. Not by much.

I will give you this. If you mean the 3 will boost hardware sales beyond the continued drop Year over Year than sure, but they will not boost Wii hardware sales to anywhere near what they were last year. Just better than the sales would have been without Wii Fit Plus, NSMBWii and WSR.



Its libraries that sell systems not a single game.

Around the Network

Wii will be at 250k
ps3 at 160k
360 at 110k



this is not easy due to the packed Q1 with the big system seller FFXIII

I'll go with this for now:

Ps3 -- 170K

Xbox 360 -- 140K

Wii -- 210K



All hail the KING, Andrespetmonkey

wii 250k, ps3 200k, 360 130k
