In the Famitsu thread, IIRC.
Edit: Or just the top ten. :/
Okay I'm pretty sure Sega has been restocking Infinite Space, just in smaller shipments. It went from like a 40k opening week, to 2k the next week. On the third week it climbed up to 5k, and now its at 6k+. Definitely getting restocked, just not in huge amounts, obviously because it's no longer a new game.

Why only about two thousand?Vinci said:
There are sold over 8.1 million white Wii consoles so far, and over 150k white Wii consoles since Monster Hunter G for the Wii was released. I would guess that there are more than about 2000 MH fans that have picked up a white Wii by now Or am i missunderstanding something?Captain Smoker

Could you send me the link (PM)?schuelma said:
Thanks.
test_account said:Why only about two thousand?
I'm being sarcastic. I'm assuming most MH fans would prefer the bundle or the black Wii to the white one. That's all. :lol

I was wondering why he did that.
schuelma,
Can you see how much #100 sold YTD? For the translation for me, it'll probably be easier to wait on GEIMIN.net to put it up, so I can run it through the normal process. Knowing what #100 sold would be good to see how this year stacks up against other years, though.

I'm back at work now and can't get to it. I think it was around 60K or even lower.

PES Wii coming out with the other versions this year?
2008 was 67K. 2007's was much higher, and the next one I have going back is mid-year 2002 (55K).
How do you know it's the PS3 version?

Ah okVinci said:
I didnt think that you litterally ment that only about 2000 Monster Hunter fans were going to (or had) bought a white Wii console (i forgot to mention this in my previous post here, sorry), but i thought maybe that you were reffering to the 2-3k (i think it was something around 2-3 at least?) Wii hardware bump when Monster Hunter G for the Wii was released or something, that those 2-3k Wii hardware bump were Monster Hunter fans that bought a Wii for MHG Wii But ye, when Monster Hunter 3 gets released, then most Monster Hunter fans might buy the Monster Hunter 3 bundle or a black Wii instead of a white Wii as you say, i agree
Speaking of the black Wii, does anyone knows if this is a limited Wii, or will it be sold side by side the white Wii for the next years to come? Also, are there any words on how many Monster Hunter 3 bundles that will be made?

:\ How long ban do you get for asking for scans? Or how long do you get banned for posting scans as well? I dont have plans doing this, i am just wonderingduckroll said:You just won a free holiday!
Out of curiousity, what were the reason that scans were banned at NeoGAF by the way? I remember that they were allowed before.
I guess it is hard to say. I am under the impression that Punch-Out wasnt really that popular back in the Famicom and the Super Famicom days. But maybe that the 2 player mode in Punch-Out!! for the Wii (in addition to the single player campaign) can be a selling point that leads to more sales?cw_sasuke said:
Ye, i agree, it might indeed be a smart move by Nintendo to keep the black Wii at least around to the end of the year as you sayVinci said:
With "the serie", do you mean Monster Hunter 3 then by the way?Mr. Wonderful

Comparing a launch title's first week sales to a game released halfway through a generation has some logic issues.wrowa said:

MH3, yeah. It needs to be huge for them, so they should do everything they can to support its acceptance on the system.

Ok. Ye, that is true. MH3 for the Wii can be pretty big indeed. I am looking forward to see how much MH3 for the Wii will sellVinci said:
Oh, i thought you ment the black Wii alone, sorry. Ye, i think it would be a smart move by Nintendo to keep the MH3 Wii bundle around at least to the end of the year as you say, i agreeVinci said:
By the way, i mean i heard something about that 50k MH3 bundles are going to be released, but maybe i am mixing this 50k up with some other console bundle (maybe the Final Fantasy 7 Advent Children Complete PS3 bundle)?EDIT: I added some text.

True, but on the flip side, not all sequels perform better than their predecessors. Thus far, Wii Sports Resort is performing better than its predecessor.

Starting with the week after 2005's Top 500, and going until there's a glut of updates in late June, this should be the mid-2006 Top 100. Looks like #100 was almost exactly 60K.donny2112 said:
3 of the top 10 games from that list still pop into the Top 30. @_@

I can't think of any product that has sales as front loaded as non-casual games. It's really pretty crazy how high a percentage of sales come in the first day or two.
One just has to know how to analyze the numbers. If you analyze or interpret the games you have to take the circumstances into account, for sure. But I didn't analyze anything, I just compared them - that's all. Since I haven't written anything regarding this matter I would like to know where you see "logic issues".Mr. Wonderful said:

Worldwide then? Interesting...Spiegel said:
Edit: no. that doesn't make sense. Japan only doesn't make sense either. The xbox 360 seems off for either.

Just a touch! The game has had a good start and is still performing well, but it's got a hell of a way to go to even sniff 1 million.
I don't think Wii Sports Resort will start moving a significant amount of hardware, but once Monster Hunter 3 launches and its Black Wii bundle, the two of them are going to make strong appearance in the Top 10 for a long time.
The way I see it, yes, fans of Wii Sports are going to pick it up. Especially the casual player (not us) that probably thinks that Wii Sports is the best the platform has to offer -- still. However, the only way it could bring in new Wii owners is by continuing to show the innovative interface of the Wii to potential owners (and those getting their first exposure to the platform) but now in an even more evolved form. The user installbase of the console is large enough to begin with that it can only get larger with the right titles, and WSR is the right title in that respect, to showcase the motion tech, m+ (but unfortunately no IR play... especiall since that's the main feature of the Wiimote that can actually enhance hardcore experiences for the better).
Monster Hunter, however, I expect to cause a trend very similar to that of FFVII, particularly it's success story in the U.S.. That's going to stir up Wii sales far more than Wii Sports Resort because you're going to have a significant increase in sales coming from new hardcore adopters. In addition to expanding a very large audience of gamers, to the MH brand that may have not played it otherwise. However, that latter prediction I seeing a much more significant note in the U.S.

Girl's Mode should (835K last check in early June), but it will be probably over a year after its release, yes. Friend Collection started higher than Girl's Mode (86K - 38K - 34K for GM vs. 100K - 70K - 51K for FC) and hasn't been through a December, yet. And again, it's Animal Crossing with Miis on the DS. This thing will sell over a million.
