Sales information is good to know just to see how well a game did.

Anyway Sonic Generations was never going to have any legs, even if it wasn't released at such a stupid date. It only really appealed to the people who were going to be there day one, everyone else will wait for a price cut.

edit: all 3DS games are club nintendo eligible regardless of publisher.

plus those sales figures dont take preowned games into account. From what ive heard, people have gone mad at it for the first month now, and are trading it in for games like skyrim (or in my case Ultimate marvel vs capcom 3) the game was short, missions included. It was a great game at the first time of playing a level but falls really quickly. Sonic sales were always going to fall the only game that keeps a decent light in the charts is Wii Sports, and we all know why that is

Wii Sports doesn't really do that well.

Sonic Generations is probably one of those games that will sell forever, though at small numbers.

I don't think Sonic Generations has very good legs when it comes to sales. I do think it'll see a spike next month though.

Yes, but I think Sonic Generations will benefit more as it is more child friendly.

Agree with ya there. Nevertheless, sales for Generations will probabaly rise a little more around Christmas season, but then that's that.

With all these big "Triple-A' games though, this game had a rough start...but I wonder if it will sell more than the preorders did...?

...probably will...
