In the midst of a recession, with the game industry slowing down and the Wii really stalling (by comparison)slowing down tremendously. Now comes December and the Wii sells 300k consoles. It is an absolutely amazing number that I do not believe anyone saw coming. I feel most everyone was understocked on the hot Wii titles as they also sold out of NSMBW from time to time.<br /><br />Speaking of which, NSMBW is a game that is a whopping 60 days old, it is a simple platform game with no online multiplayer. But it is already racking up an average play time per user of 15 hours accross 190,297. Given the total sales are around 4-5 million that represents about a 4.5% sample size which is pretty good. I mean WOW, I think it vindicates Nintendo's decision to make it only local multiplayer with no online.Kyle in DEnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8884169422383528093.post-51878073056711945852010-01-21T00:30:43.474-05:002010-01-21T00:30:43.474-05:00@Nicodemus at Nite:

I think people are playing Wii Sports Resort, because the game is still selling extremely well. From the NPD numbers for sales in December, Wii Sports Resort sold 1.79 million copies alone.coffeewithgameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05381995224445934504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8884169422383528093.post-54875068276384781332010-01-20T23:59:50.786-05:002010-01-20T23:59:50.786-05:00why are people still playing wii sports resort? i...why are people still playing wii sports resort? i can never understand whats going on with the wii demographic.

And I think it's a great idea. It's a start and better than not doing anything at all. It will help those who don't want to wake up at 5am or who don't feel like fighting the rush after work hours (which is insanely busy, that's why I go in the morning). I just hope people keep up with WFP after February 14!Charlie Changhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15893038509880330735noreply@blogger.com
