Those are seriously low numbers but this will make for an interesting next week.
The sudden influx of retarded posters - merely a coincidence?

So it looks inevitable that PSP will top the charts next week. When was the last time PSP has topped the sales charts for a week?

Even if Wii were sold out in Japan, I don't think a dip in Japanese sales starting late August makes for an adequate explanation of big US supply during the July 8 - September 1 period.stolin said:

Don't you know? Whenever a Japanese buys a DS game, they buy an extra DS Lite.

Well, it is 2006, Jan 02-08. PSP was 132,757, while DS was 91,379 and PS2 is 80,886. DS was in shortage at that time, because of the incredible christmas 2005 weeks ( 408,770in the "before christmas week" and 597,628 in the "christmas week", and 390,181 in the "after christmas week").
Interesting tidbit : the 132,757 / week is the second highest (outside of launch week) ever week for PSP. Only Dec 19-25, 2005 has higher # : 161,332.

If D/P wasn't a system seller for pokemon fans, I don't think the new dungeon game would be.

I think NiGHTS is going to see a delay. It looks like it REALLY needs one. Also, the Saturn was a lot kinder to real games than the Wii is. ...Also, NiGHTS was a first party title on Sega's most successful system. Now it's a third-party title on Nintendo's most successful system (in a while).

I dont think stocks were moved to the US. Maybe a small part, but not big enough to affect the japanese sales this big. Here are the average weekly sales for Wii in Japan:
June = 67.387
July = 106.562
August = 61.709
Then check the NPD numbers for Wii:
June = 381.8k
July = 425k
August = 403.6k
Eventho Wii sold 425k in July in USA, the sales in Japan was still damn strong. If they moved stocks in a large quantity i dont see how the Japanese sales could be that great.

Ah ok, thanks
Speaking of GoW, is that game popular in Japan? How much the the 1st edition sell? And what about GoW 2?Nuclear Muffin

What the hell happened to DS and Wii in Japan (And indeed the entire industry in Japan!) it's like the whole thing's collapsing in on itself, just how Nintendo predicted (Except that they're stuck in the car compactor along with everyone else!)
Serious alarm bells better be ringing in Nintendo HQ, because the PSP is getting dangerously close to the Wii!!!

next week expect HUGE psp numbers. all 77,777 limited edition ff7:CC psp's sold out in one day. add that to the usual 15-25k, and the release of ff7, expect 100k+ psp's. It might actually outsell the DS for a week.
As for the wii, for the last time, it's not because shipping diversions. I just got a wii on sunday at bic camera, and they had PLENTY in stock. It's school time, kids aren't getting the system in droves like before. Also, no big games have come for a while. The line up is a bit too kiddie imho, thus the adults who would buy the wii are waiting for the more hardcore and *insert* training game. Anecdotal evidence ftl, but when I was in bic, getting my wii, all i saw were moms with their kids looking at the wii and its software.
Anyone think Sony will drop PS3's price and introduce the 80gig after TGS?

I highly doubt that .Japanese people won't say:"Oh Shinzo Abe retired,don't go out and buy a Wii!" Maybe if they had a lobotomy ... but anything else .
