ioi's numbers are spreading. Jeux-France ... Go Nintendo

We've had this discussion before, and I'm fine with ioi's numbers as long as you realize where he gets them. However with these non-GAF sites posting them, they'll have no idea where these numbers came from. I could see this leading to some confusion down the road. Oh, well.

On topic ...

Nintendogs numbers are artificial (same with the main Pokemon games). That said, I plan on buying Dalmations in October.

Tamagotchi probably would've done better in the U.S. if they'd bothered to translate more of the game. Then again, maybe mostly Japanese names for people/food/objects is part of the "appeal" of Tamagotchi.

As far as individual titles go, NSMB will soon be the number 1 seller worldwide. It could even, eventually, surpass the combined Nintendogs.

These are official shipment numbers, nothing wrong with them in that respect.

shipped=sold give or take a few tens of thousands in most of these cases

You keep a website of videogame sales and you're calling people anal?

Yep!!

"but, that's not official"
"but it's shipped not sold"

etc etc

Whether Nintendogs has actually sold 7.3m or 7.4m or 7.6m who cares, it doesn't make it any less or more impressive. Quibbling over a couple of percent here or there or the way somebody has worded something is being anal.
