Yeah, well they had a boost last month where they almost sold 160k. I expected them to fall below 100k this month again, and that' s why I am surprised about 130k.

Metroid Prime 3 sold well. 218.1k for a single week isn' t bad at all


Not even that, it only 4 days.


Metroid Prime 1 did 250k in 10 days
Metroid Prime 2 did 220k in one month
Metroid Prime 3 did 220k in 4 days.


As some poster kindly put it.

Think before you start typing.

MetaCritic (all scores converted to xx/100) has:

Metroid Prime (97)
Metroid Prime 2: Echoes (92)
Metroid Prime 3: Corruption (91)

There' s nothing there to help your case.

i didn' t say that reviews determine the sales but i always said reviews help sales A LOT...

Metroid Prime (97) ====> Metroid Prime 1 did 250k in 10 days ====> add the fact that the install base was much smaller then metroid' s 2.


Metroid Prime 2: Echoes (92) ====> Metroid Prime 2 did 220k in one month ====> much larger install base yet much smaller sales.

Metroid Prime 3 did 220k in 4 days. ====> can' t compare the wii to gamecube, the install base is not the same AT ALL, taking in account the number of owners and the target market. Metroid does not even have games to compete with on the wii.

why do argue about this anyway, this Should be clear to you as the sun, Reviews influences sales NO FUCKING DOUBT ABOUT IT.. Reviews matter a lot and it' s not like they are often mistaken, most of time , YOU DO agree with the general opinion so get off your fucking high horses right now.

" I doubt Mario Galaxy will sell extremely well like Halo 3."


It will be pretty damn close. I mean Wii has nothing, everyone with a Wii will buy the game.

Wii has Nothing?

Thats the reason why most people with a Wii will buy SMG?? Nothing to do with the fact it' s a New Mario Game and most likely game of the year?

Combination of both reasons.
It' s undeniable that the Wii is lacking when it comes to having great titles.
But the game can also stand on its own quality, at least judging by the previews so far.

GOW will sell more than anything this year. Expect MG, Metroid, SSB to over take or Equal by this time Next year.

My prediction, anyway.
