I know that K-On is probably going to sell more than 60k, but I'm too stubborn to change it because I feel the general demand for all the titles next week are about 60k each. :(

No, it's because I hate K-On, and all K-On fans. :(
The 524 points in COMGNET are so tempting. haha It's also the no. 1 upcoming pre-order on Lepton and Amazon.

I should compile all the COMGNET data and see the title who crossed 500pts and sold the least. =P

This is a fap-inducing text. I still remember NSMB Wii's furious assault of the charts back then.

Ah I didn't realise how bad Pokemon's stock problems are. Virtually no Pokemon presence til the third week or so. Don't you expect 6M for B/W?
 
I'll hop in with a few predictions, I think.

[PSP] Eiyuu Densetsu: Zero no Kiseki (Nihon Falcom) - 65k
[NDS] Okamiden (Capcom) - 50k
[PSP] K-On! After School Live!! (Sega) - 40k

I swear if that K-On game goes above 50,000 in a week I will consume a bit of head-mounted haberdashery. ZnK, meanwhile, will do great due to Falcom having a devoted base of grognards who are always down for Falcom's works (and the fact that the game is apparently great and did pretty damn well in Famitsu).

I do, but taking all these records gives a 5+ million LTD already from 5th week without entering holiday season. It will be huge but not that huge.
 
Yeah, B&W isn't going to truly shatter records until December or so, when it's prime gift-buying season. It's still probably going to be the biggest Pokemon game ever, but purchases for many of the kids are going to wait a bit for the gift season.

Damn having a look at these records more carefully, its going to be hard for any game to truly reign supreme over every record.

Shipping more would inflate first weeks number and shipping less would be...problematic. I guess we gotta wait for NSMB 3DS or Pokemon 3DS.

I don't know if this has happened before but inside-games has provided last week's rankings for DSiWare and WiiWare.

If Famitsu follows the schedule they will post September top 10 tomorrow morning (in Japan) and we will find Pokemon and Yakuza numbers before Media Create.

Don't think it has happened before. Interesting to see Dr Mario and Tetris Party still in there - evergreen titles even in the DD arena? :)

I'll be the first to say...that 3DS hitting 2011 has made this year holidays quite a bit less interesting than previously thought lol.

^ I think at least one company is happier about this news. haha

PS2 sold 3.2 (or 3.7) million from Feb, 2000.
GBA sold 4.2 million from Mar, 2001.

3DS should do at least 5 million?

Maybe Capcom is happier MHP3rd won't have as much competition initially (let's just ignore the fact they probably already knew about it haha).

Yup.

89,199 vs. 85,770


duckroll said:
But the rest of his statement makes no sense... what is he comparing with what?

Makes sense to me. He's referring to Kenzan taking place long before the main series.

<stump> Zombies and mechas
<Segata> uh
<Segata> that's not Yakuza PSP.
<Segata> That's Yakuza of the End that comes out next March/April
