That's pretty crap numbers for Mario Galaxy 2, despite the fact that NSMB Wii is still charting more than 6 months after release.
Either Mario Galaxy 2 will prove to have legs, or people really do prefer side-scrolling Mario games, or both.

Disappointing sales for Alan Wake, my favorite game of the year so far. But thats what you get for releasing the same day as redemption.
I feel bad for the PSP. It's a good system, and it's certainly not a failure sales-wise, but it'll forever be compared to the sales juggernaut that is the DS.
The PS3 is blowing the 360 away in the rest of the world YTD, so seeing these numbers is kind of thought-provoking. Thank god Microsoft has the US under it's sway, or the Xbox program would be in bad shape. Also, the PSP does quite well in the rest of the world, selling almost as many units total as the 360.

"That's pretty crap numbers for Mario Galaxy 2"
Well to be fair, this does only accounts for 1 week of SMG2 sales, so selling over half a million units in just one week, really isn't crap numbers. Looking at the big picture, SMG2 has sold more worldwide than RDR has on either the PS3, or the 360 individually, obviously not combined. So yeah it will have good legs, just like most Nintendo games do.

Super Mario Galaxy 2 is tearing up the June Charts, I hear.
Don't worry Holmes, people love Mario, no matter what dimension he's in.

@Sc and Pokota
Except when you add the American numbers to Worldwide sales (America is a part of the world, last I checked) then the Xbox outsold the PS3 by almost 100,000 units Worldwide.
So Pokota you are wrong, and SC you are advocating wrongness.
Not that I give a fuck anymore, I just was curious and checked the numbers.

The DS is still leading all competition while the PSP has really came to a halt and we get a new Handheld system from Nintendo and nothing on the horizon from Sony?
Madness.
Madness.
@Chaos - Seriously 100,000 units over the whole world? And people are spilling jizz about how much better the Xbox sales are?
100,000 units out of however many MILLIONS? Hate to say it but I'm pretty damn sure there are FAR FAR FAR more than 100,000 Xboxes in BINS too.
If the difference really is 100,000 units, taking into account the 50%+ failure rate on the 360, that indicates there are FAR more PS3's actually out there being used.

It really doesn't matter to me, but I'm not sure what numbers you're looking at. The Worldwide Year to Date I mentioned includes everything, and has the PS3 ahead of the 360 by a substantial margin. The 360 has sold like hotcakes since the redesign launched, but the first half of this year was terrific for Sony.

Well, what numbers is everyone looking at? I don't know where to get numbers besides vgcharts, and they show the PS3 selling 1 million more than the 360 so far this year (4.5 to 3.5). The 360 is likely to gain a lot of ground with their redesign and temporary price cuts, just like the PS3.

@sexualchocolate: dude the 360 is outselling the PS3 and you say the install base of the PS3 is larger due to RROD? WELL! it seems that theory does not translate well into software sales.
Face it the PS3 is in the third place and always will be! With the new Slim 360 and a price cut BYE BYE SONY!

When the hell did 2D Mario become casual? Also, I think the average gamer just prefers Mario in 2D, seeing as Galaxy 1 sold like 5 million and NSMB DS sold somewhere around 25 million.
