And for reference the Zelda sales are either 2-3 days. It came out on the 13th, and these sales week stop at 15. I would assume its 3, but meh, you never know. Not that it really matters.

Thankfullly you added that was for 2-3 days only. I was kind of scared at first when I saw that it only sold 400,000 copies in one week. But next week's sales will be better. If you add these 2 days into it.

That's wonderful news for Nintendo. I kinda figured Zelda:WW would sell this much. And its good to see that GCN passed a million.

PuPPeT, those numbers from MC are correct. They do, afterall (I think), track more retailers than Dengeki do.

Before anyone asks, those sales for zelda only account for 2 days (since you can;t buy games on Sunday). Every other game on the list had the chance to sell for 6 days (though I'm not sure about WE6:FE).
