@Erik That's through the month of December. That's not including October or November.

Too bad its overtracked.

IGN says 230K in the US through December according to NPD.

http://wii.ign.com/articles/947/947929p1.html

With Canada, an extra week of sales, and giving some credit to VGC that maybe NPD undertracked, it still should come down to around 300K, give or take.

It should still be a Gold seller WW, and the IGN article mentions that De Blob will continue as a series...

They have tracked Japan sales for some weeks now, probably even more than month by now, but it's got it's own separate page that needs to be combined. But it's not like it matters though it's only sold like 2000 copies over there.

Either way with the sales and praise this now has I think we can count on a sequal.

This is probably my most surprising game of the year because I didn't expect much from it and ended up loving and playing the hell out of it.

De blob being a million seller isn't that hard to believe as long as the sales we are seeing right now are correct. It's looking at about 550k-750k by the end of the year. At either radical end, they both can leg it out in 2009 to go platinum. It's got a great chance.

I'm really happy about the sales of this game, specially because it's one of the games that makes the wii usefull in all of senses. The wiimote is perfect to play this game in a way that only wii gamers can do. No matter HD graphics, just great gameplay, isn't it? My preadiction is a great salesboost during Xmas, but, what happen in Japan? Actually seems to be the most difficult market in terms of sales!! :(

Ah I thank you all. At this rate I'm insured a sequel which just makes me so happy. What we are looking at is 65,000 this week. I'd say we'd keep a steady 50k-70k for the next 4 weeks which will put us at 550k-730k by the end of the holiday season. Then last week of the year about 30k so up the range.

Either way this is a huge success story for this game and the developer most certainly deserves it.

I wonder what Blue TOngue's next project is, hopefully TH*q lets them have the same amount or more freedom and funding as deblob.

Well, it's great! Only played the 1st level but it's very charismatic, something I sadly don't say about enough non-Japanese games.

Using the wiimote to jump feels weird at 1st, but started to feel more natural once I got my groove on, as it were.

Title is selling better the longer its out haha. Curious case of de Blob eh. Right now it's looking like it'll level be at about 30k a week without holiday sales. But with increasing Wii shipments we could see that continously increase. My guesses though are that ioi could be right in about 500k sold by the end of the year. I mean never count out any game on the Wii during the Holidays ahah. It's the one time of the year where you can say its hard for a game with modest hype and brand to not do well at least with the case of Wii.

So I bought this game yesterday during my Fall Break. Unfortunately, I left my nunchucks back at the apartment on campus. I now have to wait 4 days to play this game.

Maybe I'll start having fun If I look at the boxart long enough... Weeeee!

I think the launch time was very well chosen. This game should benefit a lot from holiday season if THQ keeps on advertising it.

Great game. Surprisingly good. Story mode is cute, challenges are fun, plus for casuals you can skip the challenges and just do free paint mode, or run through the story.

ioi- hhaa well it is holding well so you may be right. It really is going to depend if it has a "carnival games" like holiday season or games like that where they get recognition during that time and build up the brand. But I think its got a shot at gold by the end of the year.

It may have increased a little but the game still has horrible, horrible sales. It needs to maintain these legs for a long time to be called a succes, which I doubt will happen...

Gearbox this is not a simple mini game compilation.
Its a very deep artistic game with alot of depth. Its probably the best 3d platformer for the year.

Its pathetic THQ is not advertising more and that Nintendo fans are not buying it.

I think price had a lot to do with this one. I think it would have been more reasonably priced at $40 and thus wouldn't be overshadowed by the release of Lego Batman this week.

However I'm hoping this will have a decent amount of legs and be able to go at least gold but this is very very doubtful. Looking like 300k tops right now. We'll just see how it does til the end of the year.
