Posted October 3, 2006 The USA is getting the most and you forgot about Australia. oh yeah, sorry all you Aussies. So maybe we wont be getting that many then. I would have thoguht Japan woudl get the most though, seen as though they are Nintencrazy. So i dont see us getting 1 mil then. We'll just have to wait and see what happens.

Posted October 3, 2006 I thought Japan would of got the most aswell because,we'll you've seen how well the DS is doing... USA- 1,000,000 Jap - 800,000 EU - 700,000 Aus - 500,000 Just a rough estimate,probably totally wrong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 3, 2006 I still think i'll wait til it comes out here. I've already pre-ordered it and can't be bothered going to the store to cancel it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah the ds is just flying off the shelves in Japan. I like the look of those figures, I can see that happening if anything. compared to that 7,000 firgure play.com said they've already taken, I think 700,000 will be more than enough.

Posted October 3, 2006 I'm surprised it's taking Amazon so long to take in pre-orders. Amazon usually wait for their stock allocation and wont sell more than that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted October 3, 2006 Hmm,I was expecting that.I think they'll get told when Nintendo hold that conference later in the month. Yeah, apparently there's something happening with Nintendo mid-October in Europe. A guy who runs n-shop.co.uk told me that he thinks he'll be told his stock allocation, price of games and launch titles then. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 5, 2006 Game now have a sheet for Wii software pre-orders. Yay I suppose? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 5, 2006 Game now have a sheet for Wii software pre-orders. Yay I suppose? Yea, I preorded a few games yesterday. Doesn't actually seem to mean anything except double points when you buy them. Unfortunately, ExiteTruck isn't on their list, even tho games like Metroid and Mario can be preordered for when they are released. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 5, 2006 Well I had to pre-order at gameplay due to my game store messing be about :/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 5, 2006 No Excitetruck on list?! What about WarioWare is that still on for the following week after launch? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 6, 2006 Number 63 doesn't sound so good, put down a deposit somewhere else too. Hmm, damn. I could always pre-order with GAME, but then i bet their numbers are even higher. Gah. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 6, 2006 I dont think the number in which you preorder matters at all. It will be first come first serve for preorders, and if they only get enough for preorders they wont sell any to people who didn't preorder. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 6, 2006 Is that #63 at Gamestation? If so I wouldn't worry. As I've said before in this thread - the company is getting 10,000 units at launch and hasn't filled their orders yet. Also, as far as Gamestation go it isn't first-come-first-served with regards to pre-orders. If a store gets 100 units only the first 100 people who pre-ordered will be able to buy one on launch day. Even if you are there at the midnight launch, if you are number #101 you wouldn't get one then (only an example for if a store only got 100 units of course).

Zelda is the only game i could see selling out, but they produce so many, should be fine! If you feel better though, just preorder the games you know (being a nintendo fan) will be popular!

Posted October 6, 2006 Apperantly the 2 main GAME stores in my town will be getting in 200 wii's each, I heard this from a friend who was told this when pre-odering his wii. Is this something the store made up, I didn't think stock was allready allocated? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
