But Ceric put so much effort into the auto parser. I admit, the charts a little too "busy" now and with ads on the side of the screen it doens't format quite right, but if you really want I can post the #'s the old way too.

I'd love for there to be a survey done of current Wii owners in Japan to see what demographic they fit.

It certainly seems like most of them are of the new-gamer crowd with Wii Sports and Wii Play being the beefy sellers, though it would still be nice to know for sure. Wii Sports is great stuff that everyone can enjoy, but the lower numbers of Zelda, Pokémon, and even WarioWare baffle...

well we can't please everyone now can we.
Besides , no formatting looks so boring and takes almost no effort on my part.
I sent some suggestions to Ceric for his Parser 1.2, which suggested he get rid of most of the stuff going on and just keep it simpler for easier and quicker viewing.

I'd be fine with just Nintendo systems bolded, and others not.

I think this would be fine, but instead of highlighting Nintendo as the developer. Just linkify the developers. It does make the developer stand out. No Mario M's no Luigi L's, I really think we can figure out who's first party or not.

Yep, did it once again, and by an even larger margin. Sadly, the gap between the 360 and the Wii closed a lot.

More Wii software sales would be good.

couchmonkey · « **Reply #1214 on:** April 19, 2007, 01:53:51 PM »

Seriously, PS2 is outselling everything, Wii is in second place (even with a noticeable game drought and hardware shortages) and Microsoft's answer is to release a new unit that costs more than the old ones? The people have spoken, they don't want $400+ game systems.

I think 360 has the potential to creep up there in North America now, Sony fans that need to feel cool and Sony/Nintendo fans that really want next-gen graphics are going to start noticing that you can get all that in 360, and at a much better price than the PS3...which is short on games and keeps losing exclusives to Microsoft. That said, the gap closage between 360 and Wii has more to do with supply than anything else, I mean, PS2 is #1.

Obviously since PS2 is outselling Wii that makes Wii a failure.

Depends on how many are actually made available - its certainly a "limited edition" item. I doubt there is 200,000 of them made available or some huge number like that.

... the 120GB hard drive is tempting though ...

Kairon · « **Reply #1222 on:** April 19, 2007, 09:37:26 PM »

The Wii selling only 259k or so during March in America makes perfect sense when you break that down into the five weeks of the NPD data collecting: 50k a week about. This has been the weekly shipment level quite a lot during Japan's March weeks.

In fact, it seems that Japan and America are getting quite even shipments! I'm sure there will be differences and such, but Japanese numbers seem as good a starting point as any when guesstimating US monthly shipments.

Currently, Japan is saving up for Golden Week, big shopping holiday of Christmas proportions. which will be the first week of May if I'm correct. We should probably expect a huge shipment of Wiis to hit then...
