So that's why the Wii has doubled the PS3 sales? Actually if you have noticed, Super Smash Bros Brawl is doing really well in sales. Wii sales have also come up because of the game.

SSBB will sell more Wiis because BigN will divert supply back to NA upon release. The releases of WiiFit and SSBB in Japan are why they are so limited in the States now. More shipments went there than anywhere.

Wiis are sold out, and whenver they come in they are gone within a day, every retailer I talk to, say they are gone at absolutely the same moment they come in. SSBB has already sold consoles, as a matter or fact other games sold Wiis such as Mario Galaxy... SSBB has already sold a lot of Wiis in Japan, it is still steamlining forward and sales haven't plateaued... I think it will be on the contrary, SSBB will throw a little bit more into the Wii sales pool, but it will sell as it is before because of its innovation...

iGame_Champion

The game already sold 1 million copies in Japan ALONE, the PS3 had a good month in retrospect to the other 2 consoles however you have to take into account the short stock of 360s and the rise of blu-ray. SSBB isn't going to really push that many more Wii for the reason that Wii's will sell anwyays and SSBB is going to be sold out in NA within 5 days everywhere.

The Target I work at got some last week. We sold out within two days, but we got some.

And OP, you're right about one thing: SSBB will not move Wii's. The Wii's will move themselves. Demand still outweighs supply, and from what I can tell it's mostly due to the console itself, not the games. SSBB won't make much of a dent until later on down the road perhaps.

But obviously SSBB will sell a lot. I don't have to say that. You know it. Stop being such an awful troll and stay on the off-topic board if you're going to post useless trash.

I agree with this IGame dude. I was on the subway the other day, and this lady gave me three Wiis for free because, according to her, its online was just not as good as Microsoft's Live, it didn't have enough third party games, and Smash Bros. Brawl was totally overhyped.

Check Famitsu, MediaCreate, and VgChartz (I know, I know). Brawl has been putting up huge numbers in Japan so far.

It won't sell a lot because there aren't a lot to sell, but SSBB will keep Wiis sold out for a very long time. You do realize that Super Smash Brothers Brawl is the first real AAA multiplayer game available on the Wii, right? That's huge. HUGE!

What a load of crap, Wii's are still impossible to find and my local gamestop has nearly 300 preorders for Smash Brothers, way more than they had for Galaxy.

did you forget what board you're on? this is system wars. there are very few reasonably intelligent people on here. just look at what threads get created. not to mention the people that took the TC seriously, even though he has a mario avatar and a sig that says "nintendo fan".

If any game is going to move Wiis its going to be SSBB. Most core gamers I have encountered where I work said they bought a Wii just for this game. I'm sure theres a lot of people who don't have a Wii yet but want to get one just for SSBB.

Yeah, right. :lol:

Even if the lead by the Wii this month was minimal against the PS3, it is selling like hot cakes, still. It is called a shortage.

Nintendo is actually preparing a wii consoles for the release of SSBB. they and many other people already know that this series is a system seller, which why next month is actually a huge month for them. i just wish nintendo did a world wide launch for the game, as with what they did with galaxy. i just want them to do this, so we can basically see the impact the damn game would of had on all of the video game charts world wide.

I think the game would of had a bigger impact that halo 3 did.

I agree I haven't seen any Wii's in the Pittsburgh area but Sales could raise in North America because Nintendo will divert supply to the North America on Release like what they did with Japan for WiiFit and SSBB.

w.e these people you speak of ...let them miss out. It's still not gonna stop ssbb from becoming a hit in NA. I'll have fun with my consoles and my pc while others are "controlled" by sales. Not targetting toward any1 but if we were to be influenced this much by sales... then we would be sheep.

This is quite easily the worst flamebait I've ever seen. The Wii continues to destroy both the PS3 and 360 worldwide.
