Another week where Wii tripled PS3's sales, which happens quite often. I can't imagine the difference between them when Brain Training and Super Paper Mario are released later this month.

The sad thing is that's almost half of the population of the US with like a percentage of the land mass! 145,000 vs. 3.7 million or so!

Wii down 38% I guess Japan won't be carrying Wii much longer. At that rate it is only selling 200,000 a month. Considering the US sales were over double that last month. I have a feeling we will see Wii sales drop in the US NPD numbers also.

Nintendo needs to stop purposely cutting supply short in an attempt to keep demand up, release as many as you can now while people still want them and then release Super Mario Galaxy Christmas and you are set till Zelda in late 2008.

Wow go over to the neogaf forums and they will rip you apart.  The Wii is 100% sold out in Japan.  Due to shipment patterns the wii is on a cycle.  It rotates from around 50-60k to 70-80 k every week.

50k a week is lame nintendo needs to up production. They have to be proucing more than that. Plus it's pretty much proven that nintendo was holding back consoles trying to get hype. Wii fad is dying.

Wii is still sold out :|


Nintendo was holding back units to try to raise hype. Plus do you live in Japan? What proof is there that it is completely sold out. If Nintendo can't supply more than that a week then there is something wrong.

Wow go over to the neogaf forums and they will rip you apart.  The Wii is 100% sold out in Japan.  Due to shipment patterns the wii is on a cycle.  It rotates from around 50-60k to 70-80 k every week. 

50k a week is lame nintendo needs to up production. They have to be proucing more than that. Plus it's pretty much proven that nintendo was holding back consoles trying to get hype. Wii fad is dying.

Which is why people are still lining up :roll: Face it the hype isn't dying, and Ninty isn't holding back

[QUOTE="axt113"][QUOTE="rexoverbey"]Wii down 38% I guess Japan won't be carrying Wii much longer. At that rate it is only selling 200,000 a month. Considering the US sales were over double that last month. I have a feeling we will see Wii sales drop in the US NPD numbers also.MasterChumly

Nintendo needs to stop purposely cutting supply short in an attempt to keep demand up, release as many as you can now while people still want them and then release Super Mario Galaxy Christmas and you are set till Zelda in late 2008.

because selling 1 million a month is cutting supply when its outselling competition 3-1

But they got a real good chance to destroy everyone and sell 15 million by Jan 01 if they release Smash bros by june/july and start shipping out more units, and finally, release SMG in december and load up stores full of wiis from oct-dec...they need to keep the hype up.

Nintendo isn't cutting supply, they've sold over six million in less than 5 months, that's not cutting supply, that's massive demand

Lining up? Stores get 7 consoles at a time. Maybe you can post some people lining up recently. Plus like I said before it's a fad. There is a lot of one hit wonders out there that have sold millions of albums. Doesn't mean they weren't fads.
