Media Create, a site that reports sales figures in Japan, has announced that Super Smash Brothers: Brawl has sold 819,647 copies from the week of January 28-February 3rd. This is pretty remarkable considering the game wasn’t even on shelves the first few days of that week, since the retail date was January 31st. In related news, during the same time period Wii console sales also rose in Japan. I wonder why.
As we all know, this game is going to be Nintendo’s best selling game of the year by far. I’m also willing to bet it will be it’s highest rated game. The hype for this game had been building for years and, while Japanese gamers get to enjoy the game, Americans will have to wait patiently until March 9th. If you’re in Europe, well, let’s just say you have a long wait ahead of you as no date is planned for release yet.
