Amazing sales estimate and totally believable, they would sell a lot more if you were able to actually find a Wii in the US. I hear from friends that it was very hard to find one a week prior to launch and I imagine it's a lot worse now. Nintendo really do need to replenish stocks well to keep the momentum going for all the upcoming releases.
Chinese guys, it's most likely a fake ad.

All Nintendo needs to do now is add more Servers. The online matches in Brawl suffer from sever lag.
Sakujo!

Hmm...I've only seen lag in one online match (out of, oh, 50-60 matches). I don't have anything fancy (just middle of the road ASDL).
I've only played anonymous match-ups, and the match making software seems to be very good at finding opponents with low ping times (although it does take quite a while to find them sometimes, and sometimes I've gone 1 or 2 matches in a row with a CPU player filling in the 4th player).
I suspect that if you're having lag it's probably one of the players' connections that's the issue. Make sure you aren't downloading stuff over the same connection (i.e., you should stop your Torrent downloads on your PC while playing...that really does cause a lot of lag). And if you're playing with friends, make sure they've stopped their downloads too
So yeah, Golden Sun 3.

I don't recall even seeing a commercial for this game. Then again, the only thing I've been doing lately is taking finals and playing Brawl
.
I'm guessing every was expecting the game to sell well, but I didn't foresee it being this big. It's good to know that Nintendo fanatics can keep up with those Halo fans.
