Can I burn it with a copy of Killer 7?

Well what do you know...

The Wii sold 100,000 systems, Wii Fit is on its way to selling half a million copies and MARIO GALAXY JUMPED BACK TO THE TOP TEN??

[BlackNMild2k1]

But NMH is no where to be found... I predict #31 on the Top 50 though

DO'H!

Well, so much for the "its selling better than Killer 7" claims .

[Stogi]

World Wide, it probably will.

[Luigi Dude]

See, I told all you guys Mario Galaxy would have legs.  According to sales data about half of the people that have been buying Wii's for the last month in Japan, have been buying it for Mario Galaxy.  From the latest sales data it's pretty obvious that close to half the people are still buying it for Mario Galaxy.

In other words, never underestimate the power of Mario.

What surprised me is that Galaxy jumped back to the top ten after it was slowly sliding down. Most games don't do that so its impressive Galaxy went back to the top, even if its for a while.

[vudu]

It slid down because eight new games were released in the same week.  Galaxy's actual unit sales didn't decline, so once the new games dropped off the chart Galaxy moved back up.

[redgiemental]

Anyone got any Idea on how Super Mario Galaxy's initial sales compare to other games in the series??

PS3 is still being outsold by PS2 (and PSP, DS, Wii, and XBox 360), and Nintendo is still kicking everyone's ass, though Xbox 360 did very well, and PS3 did respectably well for about 2 weeks.

Also, GH3 on Wii outsold the 360 and PS3 version, though there was definitely a shortage of the XBox 360 version, but the Wii version is very hard to find as well.

Supposedly, in the US Galaxy has already outsold Sunshine's total for all of 2002.

Wow. That's got to be some sort of record.

Nope - Sunshine actually did really well in North America - it sold nearly 4 million copies (6 million total). Galaxy is still a ways from 2 million.

EDIT: According to IGN, more software numbers..

Mario and Sonic at the Olympics (#11) - 330k
Lego Star Wars - 180k
High School Musical - 180k
Zack & Wiki - 35k
Metroid Prime 3: Corruption - Almost 500k total

Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles - 120K
 

[redgiemental]

I was hoping for better sales for Zack and Wiki. I'll buy it when it comes out here in Europe so thats one more sale I guess lol.

Zak & Wiki did 35k this month.  The game was released in September and should most likely be over 100k sold by now, which is great for a niche, point-and-click adventure.

BTW, I just beat it last night.  What a great game!

I dunno, the IGN story made it sound like total sales...

Is there a typo there?  Sunshine came out in 2002.  I'd kind've hope that Galaxy did better than the 2006 numbers.

Whoops! Eheh... corrected...

BTW Son Of Lucas, I've been watching your growing notoriety on the VGChartz forums and your keerrraaazzzyyy predictions too! Wouldn't Nintendo need to be a whole lot more aggressive in their hardware manufacturing in order to meet your predictions though? I have the feeling that Nintendo has hit a real dead-end in terms of increasing production for the time being.

[Chozo Ghost]

Nintendo bought out Santa's workshop and is getting all the elves focused on Wii production; which is just as well, since that's the toy every kid wants anyway.

They sure did, but I knew that couldn't be right.  I just listened to their Wii-k in Review (that's in friggin' ACC format) and Matt confirms that ZDub sold 135k LTD.  Those are great numbers.

[Kairon]

Woah, really? That's much more betta'.

[BlackNMild2k1]

I am proud to say that one of those "ZDubz" is mine. Therefore I am not part of the problem

"friggin' ACC"? You mean, AAC right? If you've never heard of AAC, you'd best get used to it. It's the successor to MP3. Lots of companies are using it (Apple iTunes is the largest) because no licenses or payments are required to be able to stream or distribute content in AAC format.

[Kairon]

...are you SERIOUS?!?!? License free??? ... AWESOME!!!
