Nintendo always brags about their sales at http://press.nintendo.com

was already posted. & as a rule of thumb, if you see it in talkback, then it is either already old, or nobody cared enough to post it on the regular forums minimum of 6hrs before they did.

WSR Sells 500k through Aug. 3rd.

REDMOND, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Nintendo has provided staycations to thousands of people nationwide since the July 26 launch of its Wii Sports Resort™ game. More than 500,000 units of the game for the Wii™ console sold in the United States through Aug. 3, according to Nintendo’s internal tracking numbers. The collection of 12 fun resort-themed sports lets players of all ages escape to a tropical island for some year-round summer fun. The game comes with one Wii MotionPlus™ accessory, which brings unmatched accuracy to games that have been specially designed for it.

“Through Monday we sold one copy of Wii Sports Resort roughly every 1.5 seconds continuously since it launched in the United States,” said Cammie Dunaway, Nintendo of America’s executive vice president of Sales & Marketing. “This tells us consumers were eagerly waiting to get their hands on these fun activities, and it’s a great start for a game that will have long-lasting appeal.”

Wii Sports Resort includes archery, Swordplay, table tennis, basketball, golf, bowling, Air Sports, Power Cruising, Frisbee®, cycling, canoeing and wakeboarding. The game is easy enough for novices to pick up but contains a tremendous amount of variety and depth to keep veteran players and their friends and family members entertained for hours on end.

Remember that Wii features parental controls that let adults manage the content their children can access. For more information about this and other Wii features, visit Wii.com.

Wii Sports Resort is available at a suggested retail price of $49.99. Additional Wii MotionPlus accessories are available at a suggested retail price of $19.99 each. For more information about Wii Sports Resort, visit www.WiiSportsResort.com.

Konami posted their sales, apparently the only major seller they had was MGS4...

[Stratos]

Did Konami even release anything major on Wii worth watching sales yet?

[NinGurl69 *huggles]

It was worth seeing EleDewy sales drop.  Blatant 3rd party sabotage.

Soooo DQIX is the highest selling DS game in 1 month of sales and was only tracked for 3 weeks before the report?

Are they expecting around 6-7million in sales by Dec. 2009?

[BwrJim!]

http://www.edge-online.com/news/monster-hunter-3-drives-wii-sales-boost-in-japan

[elmerion]

DQIX is not going to sell more than 6 million, not even world wide, its not going to sale much in america, and the sales are going to be really slow after the incredible start

[NinGurl69 *huggles]

If it stops at 6 million, then we'll know it's still a non-casual game.

Has the PS3 actually sold any games this year in Japan?

[NinGurl69 *huggles]

"03. [WII] Monster Hunter 3 (tri~) (Capcom)"

Look at those sales nosedive.  This really is a non-casual game.

[BlackNMild2k1]

some japanese site was having a 59% off sale on stand alone MH3.
it was only one store, but I think it shows demand outside of the CCPro bundle whioch I'm sure most of the sales are.

Is that first week and rest of the life or what?

Anyway, I'm not really surprised, at least it performed better than other home console versions.
