Well, back in the day there weren't as many western videogame software houses as there are today. True true but there are still some recent games that feature. Guess it just shows its difficult to make Western games become a success amongst the Japanese gaming audience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hero-of-Time Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 Looks like the price cut has had an instant impact. Amazon must be very, very happy with the Wii. It's always been a big seller for them, and today they're seeing quite the surge. Thanks to the $50 price drop, Wii sales have rise 1,700% today alone. That has put the Wii right at the top of the video game charts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dante Posted September 27, 2009 Author Share Posted September 27, 2009 (edited) ExciteBots sales increased over 50000% on Amazon! ExciteBots: Trick Racing with Wii Wheel Bundle by Nintendo 1. Ranking has gone up in the past 24 hours 50,862% Sales Rank in Video Games: 8 (was 4,077) Edit: Edited September 27, 2009 by Dante Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Captain Falcon Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 ExciteBots sales increased over 50000% on Amazon! It's $19.98 with the wheel and $38.99 on it's own... Given they charge you $9.49 for the wheel, if you can get $10 credit for the game on it's own, it's worth buying even if you're just for a spare wheel (though given how awful Mario Kart is with one, I'd fail to see why you'd want another).

Zechs Merquise Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 Looks like the price cut has had an instant impact. In worldwide totals, the PS3 was just 50,000 ahead of the Wii last week. When the price cut kicks in, that'll be that. Wii back on top. I should imagine the PS3 sales will drop another 50k this week and will level off just under the 360 sales.
