First Week Sales

[Viper]

Preliminary data is in.

Brawl sold between 845k and 1.033 million in its debut week. The range is the + or - room for error.

Final numbers will be released in a few days.




Note: In one week, SSBB sold more units in Japan than Galaxy has life to date (890k).

Now we know why it was delayed.

[Generosity of God]

any idea as to the shipment numbers yet? just so we know how close it was to selling out (if it didnt).

[masteratt]

What are the chances Nintendo will send me some of the money they made?

None?
Oh okay.....Congrats anyway.

First day sales were 500k on shipment of 600k. Second shipment was supposed to be over 50% of the first shipment so, 600k + 50% = 900k+.

At least 900k were shipped but most likely 1 million were shipped with sales just above 900k.

truly impressive....

just think how high they will be in the states.

[Delirious]

Bout what I expected as far as numbers go. I still remember reading about the original smash in NP back in the day as an import and I already knew if they brought it over here it would be huge. Guess that was an understatement.

It's all supply based up to about 3 million. If Nintendo supplies the US with 3 million copies, 3 million would probably sell that week.

[Gummy]

It's doing so goddamn well.
I sense brawl explosion... and mayhem.

No surprises here.

Someone just give me this damn game already!

[Viper]

940,000 in 3 days according to Famitsu.

[Hylian-Advocate]

really.... I thought it was around 700,000 in 4 days.... and I thought the Famitsu estimates weren't going to be posted until today.... with the official numbers coming tomorrow.

anyway.....what people often forget about these first week sales is that it really isn't a week.....because Japan Launches games on Thursdays.

The first full week should definitely be over a mil.
