Re: Official October sales numbers (Wii barrels ahead, 360 still stron
i don't think we'll find many wii games in top 10 even in the future
a) many purchasers are more casual, so buy less games
b) even when they do buy games, they aren't rushing out to get them on d1, or pre-ordering them...they will buy it when they see it...so games like mario party or big brain academy may sell >1million, but it'll be over several months, not all in the first month, as they'll buy it when they see it on shelves, not on release date
so games that 'gamers' like such as mario/smash/kart will make top 10, but top sellers like big brain, mario party, wario ware, etc may eventually sell more total copies than many monthly top-10 titles, but they won't hit a monthly top-10 list since their sales will be more spread out
