One indicator of future sales is pre-launch demand – not people watching trailers or investigating rumors about the game, but those actually exhibiting shopping activity. Despite being available on both the PS3 and Xbox 360, demand is nowhere near that of 2007’s most anticipated game, Halo 3. Click to enlarge: (Charts Included)
Also;
Has the Wii felt the burn by not offering the Grand Theft Auto Title?

Very interesting read. I wonder which online store data they are basing their analysis on ? What is Compete ?
Interesting text :
It’s significant that the Wii is experiencing substantially higher demand than it did during it’s launch period, typically the case and indicative of a more significant trend. The escalating number of shoppers implies that many people are still “discovering” the Wii, and the massive volumes of traffic seem to reach beyond the “gamer” demographic. As gaming is clearly going mainstream, the intuitive design and social elements of the platform have consumers turning to the Wii in droves.[ Oracle ] [ Level 30 ] [ Rank: 14935 ]bids

I would not believe this article at this time. The article cites no sources and says nowhere where its data came from. In addition, we have seen a larger number of reports saying the opposite to what this article is stating.
