Wiifit won't die it seems :lol

I think this is going to be a fun week for charts. Somebody make a ridiculous assertion so that I can humiliate you with numbers and charts! Please? Jimbo went down sometime last year, the "they aren't close" guy went down a few weeks ago, and then the last guy who said the Wii was "dampening" kindly shut his trap.
Am I supposed to say something controversial for somebody to respond to first? I'm new to this.

So going by previous trends over the past year or two of MC threads, is it fair to assume a bunch of "GO PSP OMG SONY WOOOOO" posters this week that will then mysteriously disappear within a couple of weeks? And who will be the "dumb poster of the week that gets dogpiled by the regulars" for this thread?

monster hunter selling so much kinda makes it weird. why don't people just wait to pirate it instead of buying it if piracy is so rampant on PSP?
i suppose the 880,000 that bought the game could be the proportionate amount of people that legitimately buy games, and there's actually like 3 million other people out there that will pirate it.

Well, there's still 4.4+ million PSP owners out there in Japan who haven't bought MHP2G.Defuser said:

Based on PSP's numbers this week it looks like, 3rd parties will be switching support over from the DS as it is struggling to keep up.
Not to mention with the PS3's number remaining steady while the wii's continue to drop it's only a matter of time before a HD console finally take over.

You forgot 3rd parties and the dreaded "nongame".AdventureRacing said:
But points for effort. Let's see what Panther's move will be next!
Oh Panther. As yo've noticed I've been happy to leave you alone, but this warrants a response I'm afraid. For one, as per Media Create, my prediction for PS3's March performance turned out correct. And how about yours? I'll just let the numbers continue to pile up, and you continue seeing only what you want to see, always to the exclusion of your own failures. Now, please, proceed. Warm up the graphing engine.PantherLotus said:

There goes my prediction of smash bros brawl surpassing wiifit in sales.
Hammer24 said:
haha. anyone ever guess what, if any, will be the game that breaks the barrier (isnt it more like 300k)? at this point with japans utter rejection of the ps3, i wouldnt be surprised if ff13 and mgs4 putter out in the 300k range too.
of course, maybe in 2 years the ps3 will have a long term surge like the psp is having. nobody would have ever guessed that about the psp.

I expect about 500-600K from MGS4. You're crazy though if you don't expect Final Fantasy XIII to be huge.
The difference between the PSP and the PS3 is, IIRC, the PSP always puttered along, posting solid numbers. It just had the misfortune of existing side-by-side with DS. The PS3 on the hand, is a disaster on anybody's terms.

Even the Gamecube had a million seller or two.diddlyD said:

Yeah. While I don't think any other PSP title sells nearly as well as MH over there (I guess Crisis Core came the closest, at what, 750,000?), PSP titles do often hit the charts there, at least for the first week (like this week, one at number 5, last week, one at #6) or two (the #6 game from last week is now #26 or something)
Whereas I can't think of the last time a PSP game cracked the top ten in the US/Europe. Maybe Madden 06?

Quite a discrepancy with Famitsu's MKDS. Otherwise not a lot of differences.

I think it can keep plummeting for at least 2 weeks before dropping out of the Top 50. Poor SegaElbrain said:

This is true. It doesn't exactly do the same numbers in the west.Defuser said:Because majority of GAF never played it
Which is why the uproar over the MHThwii announcement was at once so mystifying and hilarious to me.
So what does 2nd G offer over 2 that makes all the MH fans go and buy it all over again? I am correct in assuming that this is an enhanced version of 2, yes?
