(in before obligatory "When will we get hardware numbers" question)

What a lot of sales! Quite a few games sold last week then... go go present giving.

Alright, so I'll post the same question in this thread: isn't Kingdom Hearts II more expensive than a regular PS2 game?

About the same I believe- ~7500 yen

Ah OK, maybe I confused it with the big-budget Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest games. I recall reading something about them having a higher price.

Wait...what?!

Yep you read it right.

Those numbers are absolutely phenomenal !!!

Both higher than their launch weeks.

I said this would be a huge week but I wasn't quite prepared for this.

AC will do 2m easily now and MK should do 1m in the next couple of weeks.

Staggering performances!

I'll post my prediction here since the other was locked..

last week it was:

AC 184k
MKDS 146k

and DS sold 409k

this week: AC sold 416k (226% of last week)
MKDS sold 302k (206% of last week)

so I would expect the ds to sell in the region of ~700-800k and that confirms Iwata's 5.44 million sold.

go DS!

Well, KH should have decent legs, another 200k next week, 120k following then dropping away- maybe 1.3-1.4m?

Hardware is gonna be something else.

600k for DS has to be a cert.

Better then GT4 which sold about the same amount and dropped off into an endless abyss. Well anyways it dropped off about 500k in sales. I don't think that is going to happen though.

I'll stick with a DS hardware prediction at 575k. Not saying that isn't amazing. I'm just saying that some of your predictions at 700k are to high.

Well, the chart we had from Nintendo which was sourced as Media Create showed about 5.2m as of Dec 25th, so that would only indicate around 550k this week but maybe these were based on early estimates or something because it has to be more than that...
 
Since all the Nintendogs games are back in the Top 30, and that means they all sold atleast 30-40k they are probably going to go over the Million mark next week too. Then Gentle Brain Training might go over next week too.

Tamagotchi a Million Selle by end of the Year? WTF O.O

And Mario Kart DS

That's 6 in just over a year.

Also notice all three versions of Nintendogs in the top 30 (likely doing 20k+ each)

Yeah I found it hard to believe 600-700k DS predictions but those DS software sales are some craziness...is that 6 Nintendo published games in the top10?

So when do the hardware figures come out? Is this even the year's biggest week for sales?

You will say WOW!

This thing (DS) is a runaway success.
Almost like a fire that's just blazing out of control.

Over 416,000 in one week for a game that wasn't released that week?
I wonder how much DS hardware sold?

Is that a Pikachu holding a placard? :-D

But part of me is wondering if there is any room for Pokemon to do much better.

I believe they do, but that's only for members who get their weekly/monthly/annual reports.

No the Biggest week is next week i think..

Last year, the biggest selling week, both for hardware and software was the 20th-26th December. I'd say the 19th-25th Dec is the biggest.

Edit: Sorry made a mistake Check any of the last 101 sales threads and you will find it.

Oh yeah I'm very happy to see Katamari PSP in the Top 30. That surprises me.

And next week is supposed to be even bigger still. I just can't see it, is AC going to do 500k, Mario Kart 400k? Madness.

No, no, no.

This is the biggest week.

I'm afraid sales will be dropping off to ~70% of these numbers next week (still another 250k for AC, 170k for MK etc)...

But Brain Training 2 and Mario & Luigi are out!

No Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Summoner? First good game for PSP since March and it doesn't sell. Oh well, go DS.

Also, looks like Tales of the Abyss has no legs.
