April 7, 2008 March Game Sales Predicted to Rise, Thanks to SSBB 11:04:28 AM CT ![]() To be fair, Super Smash Bros. Brawl isn' t the only big title for March, but the game is being credited as the catalyst for a sales rise last month. Lazard Capital Markets analyst Colin Sebastian is predicting that software sales for March rose about 35%, and SSBB is a big factor, which became Nintendo of America's fastest selling title one week in at 1.4 million units. Sebastian speculated about April a bit as well, saying that he expects positive growing trends into the summer months due a solid release lineup across all three platforms, namely Mario Kart Wii and Wii Fit for the Nintendo Wii. Lastly, Sebastian touched a bit on the launch preparation of Wii Fit, which is rumored to have a Mario cameo. He stated that Nintendo may "consider incremental production and/or shifting of regional unit allocation." For the full details on the report, head on over gamedaily.com! Link: gamedaily.com |
