Pretty sure Pokemon had much more than 893,743 units sold. And if it did have that amount, that would make it 4th, not 3rd.

Wii games in the top 100 outsold PS2 games in the top 100? That's surprising.

How much did Pokemon Diamond and Pokemon Pearl do individually? It's always annoyed me when I see them combined in a sales chart.

Wow. It is so nice to see Layton in top 10. Proves 3rd party game on Nintendo platform can succeed. Such a nice game, can't wait for Layton - Pandora's Box.

So Portable Ops has sold an additional 162k. What does that put its life time sales at in Japan? I could of sworn it was around 300k last it was on the charts?

Why is Gyakuten Saiban 4 not on that list?

Nevermind, they have it as Nintendo published title. And titled as "Apollo Justice."

Wow, much better showing for both Sim City DS and Etrian Odyssey than I expected. More than anything else, though, this list shows how on fire the Japanese gaming market is; this is just for the first quarter of this year, and 86 titles are already over 100k!

Of course not, it's a Nintendo system. Third party games can't compete in terms of sales with Nintendo's first party titles.

What's really funny, is that not even the most crazy ass, screw loose in the head Nintendo-fanboy would have guessed at this level of domination, in even one territory.


Everytime I look at these, and other charts, it astounds me at just how fast, and complete Nintendo's turn-around has been.

I mean it really is insane.

Blue Dragon came out at the start of December, so most of its sales were last year. Trusty Bell came out mid-June, so only had two weeks of sales for this chart. Dunno if it's LTD is high enough to get on this chart, but I suspect it is. Will find out on Monday in Famitsu 360, I guess.

Sega must be really unhappy about that (?). At any rate, it may well change with the release of the 360 version, unless RE4:Wii has super legs.

I think a lot of these games don't seem like huge hits, but were for their developers.

I mean, Harvest Moon Island is going to get sales of 300,000 in Japan alone, something that just doesnt happen to the Harvest Moon games anymore. Ouendan 2 is a much bigger success than the original... Prof. Layton is the biggest hit by far Level 5 has ever had. That Kanji "game" sold 250,000 and I bet the IE Institute wasn't expecting it to sell that well at all. And games like Big Brain Academy Wii might only be heading to sales of 300,000 in the region, but for the development time and money spent on it, that should be way more than enough.
