Japanese sales of Nintendo games usually follow the same way as American and European sales too.

@2 Wii party’s essentially Mario Party with Mii’s. So its normal to get good sales.

“Good sales”
Wii doubles ps3 in nnumber, but 235k of wii party is really far from the double of 176k of wkc.
Think about it.;)

@6 I’d be willing to bet a substantial amount of money that Wii Party will much more than double the sales of WKC over its lifetime.
