That is the Wii top 8 and not the Famitsu top 8 for the week.

Yeah... famitsu top 8 will have a mixture of DS and Wii in it.

 

[KINGMOKU]

Okay, whats the over/under on anything non-Wii/DS bieng in the top ten?

Excellent sales if true Tie Ratio looks very good.

 

[Hyoushi]

The GC version of zelda will sell more than the Wii version in Japan I predict.

quoted for lols

 

[Lee N]

december sales will be crazy.

remember last year?

 

[MrSardonic]

remember last year?

yeah, there weren't shortages of PS3, Wii and DSL.

 

[Juice]

I love that the Nintendomination in Japan almost makes me (us) care not at all about how well they do abroad.

Still, it looks like the Wii is just set to pown everything in its path in every territory for the first leg of the race.

If the unconfirmed first day numbers hold up, then Sony will lucky to get anything in the Top 30.

The Tales of Destiny remake should still be in the top10.

NOOOOO zelda TP should sell way more then that..

Hey now, those are excellent day one sales for a Zelda game in Japan. Heck, those are excellent day one sales for any console game in Japan.

well after seeing how all the DS games get 200k sales in one week (and games like that sega girlie game 400k in one week..)

 

[DSXBoy]

46% of Wii console userbase bought Zelda TP? If confirmed that's fantastic news.

 

[Meier]

Let's be honest, most new gamers probably don't care too much about Zelda. It'll have very solid legs though I imagine.

 

[farnham]

ToD should be #1.

there are 3 games that really killed the interest of the average japanese console gamers.. because there were mediocre games comming out every year from these series and they all sold well..

1. winning eleven....
2. dynasty warriors...
3. Tales of series..

Awesome first day sales for all games. I expect the final sales for Wii in th MC sales to be +400000

oh and probably the gundam series would be more appropriate then WE

[farnham]

was this game released in america..?

 

[BorkBork]

Go go Trauma Center!

 

[ZeoVGM]

Trauma Center <3

Hey, off topic, but when does NPD November come out?

 

[ethelred]

Really awesome for Trauma Center. I think Atlus will have to be thrilled with this, given how the DS game performed in Japan -- I figure they did the Wii game based off the US sales, and anything out of Japan would just be an added perk.

Trauma Center <3

This Thursday, most likely.

 

[KINGMOKU]

sales for one day.

 

[starship]

If those numbers are correct then Zelda should be over 200k in its first week and probably over 500k by the end of 2006. This game will easily sell over 1m units, more like over 1.5m units.

Certainly not easily in my opinion.

 

[Square2005]

Wii Play and Wii Sports are far too low, they'll have higher sales than Zelda by a large margin. Also the Wii should've sold ~400k units first week at least, your bullshit estimates yield a tie ratio of barely 1:1, there's no way in hell that can happen

Uh...NO!!
Looks like you're wrong and I was right, junior:

First off, don't use "junior" as an insult.

Second: I wouldn't call it "pure luck", but your guestimates have been wrong many times, so don't act as if your numbers are legit, just because you can prove Masklinn wrong.

Btw; This post is not supposed to be as agressive as it reads

[Xristot]

I hope that wii not only gets another trauma center, but more atlus support in general. Seriously, that would make my day.

Gulp. Impressive for the first day of sales. But the important, overall for Zelda, is the long term.

you're more annoying than ioi. stop it please

Ok guys I'm confused: when does the Pokemon game come out in Japan? I remember hearing it would launch with the Wii, but apparently that didn't happen

 

[Bo130]

This month, 14th.

I don't know about Pokeman but didn't you say we should kill you if Nintendo comes out on top this gen? I can't find the quote though. Guys help me find this quote.

 

[jesusraz]

Superb sales for Zelda! Can't wait to see how Dragon Quest Swords does early next year...

C'mon 505, don't be a bunch of wankers.

Nintendo is handling Trauma Centre: Second Opinion in Europe after the DS game did much better than expected. But the game's been delayed from Day One launch...until when, though, I'm not quite sure. I'd hazard a Feb 07 date guess.

 

[PhoenixDark]

I have no idea what you're talking about.

Personally I think the Wii will destroy the competition in Japan, flounder in Europe, and come in third in the US

 

[Days like these...]

Ok, well maybe I'm imaging things I could have swore I saw one of your posts say that. Anways welcome back and no I dont want you dead. LOL

 

[jarrod]

Fixed

TOD will certainly sell best in the short term (it's not limited to a 350-400k userbase after all)... long term though Zelda will probably sell close to twice as much or more.

 

[Jammy]

It's good to see those Wii titles performing well (as well as the system).

Red Steel should own Resistance in sales there (not that that's anything to be proud of), but it's good to see the better Gundam game (SCAD Hammers for Wii) getting the better sales, even if it probably is because of supply or something.

 

[flipping_heck]

no elebits? i thought that will sell quite well

 

[soundwave05]

I think only Nintendo 1st party stuff is listed. I'm not really sure Elebits is a huge seller/mass market type of game anyway.

Well, roughly 30k off of the 400k that was said to have been sold, but I guess that's negligible.

Awesome first day sales for Zelda. I hope it keeps it up.

 

[LOCK]

Great first day sales. Amazing actually.

 

[Xeke]

Gulp. Impressive for the first day of sales. But the important, overall for Zelda, is the long term.

So around 32,000 unsold Wii's sitting around? Whats up with that?

Media Create doesn't track 100%. I don't think any tracking service in the world does that. There's always going to be a margin of error.

... on a userbase 30 times as large.
