This is the last week of April and unusually, contains 2 national holidays - Easter Monday (25th April) and also the Royal Wedding holiday of Prince William & Kate Middleton (29th April).

Gamers celebrated by keeping the previous week’s new No1 & No2 exactly where they were, with Valve/EA’s ‘Portal 2’ (-51%) on top for a second consecutive week since launch and Warner Bros. Interactive’s ‘Mortal Kombat’ (-42%) remaining at No2. 505 Games climb one place to No3 with ‘Zumba Fitness’ ( -21%) as the PS3 version debuts this week, five weeks after the launch of the hugely popular Wii version – the PS3 version has not lit up the market in the same way with 10% of sales across the 3 formats. Codemasters’ new entry from last week ‘Operation Flashpoint: Red River’ (-21%) moves in the right direction, up 2 places to No4. Sega chose this week to launch two new titles – ‘Virtua Tennis 4’ on PS3/360/Wii is new at No23 but ‘Thor: God of Thunder’ fails to make an impact on the Top 40.

If Portal 2's success means that there's a majority of console players who appreciate smart, nonconventional games when the quality is high enough, we have something to rejoyce about after an endless stream of military shooters storming the charts.

But a part of me sort of wishes there's an army of bros out there wondering how to get headshots on walls.

What software that didn't charted before should chart now?

What are new 3DS owners playing? The sales between the games can't be spread that evenly since most of the launch line-up is crap,so i'd at least expect SSF43D to show up. The bottom of the top40 chart can't be more than a few thousand.

3DS hardware might have cooled off after launch week i guess.
 
03 (03) 360 Mortal Kombat (Warner Bros. Interactive)
04 (02) PS3 Mortal Kombat (Warner Bros. Interactive)

Is this the PSN effect? Seems odd that the PS3 version would be higher than 360 in the first week, then switch positions in the second.
 
Psychotext said:
It's happened before. I suspect it's a side effect of the bigger userbase / more "casual" gamers.

True, I'm just thinking that the PS3 version was the better version in week one (with an extra character), and the 360 version is the better version in week two (being the only one online).

Fixed.

That's the thing, there are no big games in the lineup. Either people are simply playing DS games on their 3DSs or they're waiting for said big games to release before buying the system.

The system must be selling a few thousand a week, and SSF43D is as close to a big game as the system has. Only game with online play. I can't imagine buying a 3DS to play DS games exclusively, why not just keep your DS?

Sure the system has slowed down since launch, but not buying anything to play on your shiny new toy doesn't wash with me. FaceRaiders, AR Games and Mii plaza don't come close to cutting it.

I know I do. I refuse to spend money on the crap that is out right now. I might invest some money in the 3DS eshop if it were available, but right now, I use it as a DS with STreetpass Quest on the side.

Can only speak for myself, but as a 3DS owner right now I find bargain-hunting for DS games a lot more interesting than the 3DS aisles right now.

(Although I say '3DS aisles' - lots of shops have 3DS games mixed in with their DS games indiscriminately, including my local Gamestop which I was very surprised at.)

same here. The 3DS in my local Media Markt is positioned somewhere between the bargain bins and the fire exit, no kidding. There is an unorganized pile on the ground in plastic boxes that are probably older than the store itself, judging by how damaged and scratched they are.

Games are mixed with the normal DS games on the Asshole side of the Aisles with all the Barbies Adventure games and german C list celebrity fitness games.

There are few millions soccer fans in Europe and PES is fantastic on 3DS. Seeing it bomb shows how much credit Nintendo has lost among gamers, and how hard it will be for them to regain big 3rd party franchise audiences.
 
velvet_nitemare said:

Right, and it's a port of a remake that's wasn't that huge to begin with. I don't mean to belittle it, I'm sure it's a good game, but it's not a system seller.
velvet_nitemare said:

You'd buy it for upcoming games. Obviously most people simply wait for those games to release before buying the system itself, but the other way happens as well.

The original DS didn't have a great launch either, but at least Mario 64 DS was there from the start. 3DS needs OoT to even reach a comparable level.

It actually did a lot better than the DS games, so I guess the DS was a massive failure among gamers.

Forgot that MK was banned in Germany too. Not a full ban, as people can buy imported copies, but no official release; neither rating...so it won't chart there. :(
