He's a great addition to the Japan Sales-Age Team. Showed up out of nowhere with lots of numbers.schuelma said:I'm really glad bttb is a full member now

A gain of less than 2K since the middle of the year, so it's not going to catch up to the first Metroid Prime's 78K.180. [WII] Metroid Prime 3: Corruption (Nintendo) 74,647
When this dropped out of the Top 30 it was at 63K, so it's gained about 10K. This does seem to make it the best-selling Fatal Frame game, though there's some chance Fatal Frame II sold enough to get past 73K, but not the few extra K to make it on the 2004 Top 500.185. [WII] Zero: Tsukihami no Kamen (Nintendo) 73,449
Missed it by that much!417. [WII] Final Fantasy Fables: Chocobo's Dungeon (Square Enix) 26,916 / 99,626
We haven't seen this one at all since last year's Top 500, and it more than doubled. But what's more shocking? The PS2 NiGHTS remake that released in February 2008 and sold 6.8K its first week doesn't appear to have made the list. So apparently it sold less than 12K through the rest of the year.markatisu said:297. [WII] NiGHTS: Journey of Dreams (Sega) 44,389 / 71,286
Damn this sold more than I had remembered

cvxfreak said:I think Nintendo needs to start releasing their really old stuff at discounted prices at this point. That's one particular point I never agreed with Nintendo on as a consumer: the resistance of price drops. I think Capcom is a much better company in that regard. Even Monster Hunter Portable 2nd G is at a budget price these days.
cvxfreak said:No clue why they put the two games on different platforms.
Ehh, I can see where Iwata is coming from. Even years back on GAF I was wondering why companies were starting to add content to their budget rereleases, therefore making waiting around for a $20 release the wiser course of action than buying the initial $50 release.HK-47 said:No one should agree with that point as a consumer, unless dick sucking is their livelihood.

JoshuaJSlone said:To pick the tiniest 2007 example, a Best version of MGS3 released in late November 2007 and only sold 3K by the end of the year. Through 2008 it's up to 62K, though, so I take it MGS4 gave it a decent bump.
