[AniHawk]

Japan doesn't like games.

 

[Rlan]

Tetris has legs!

 

[Red Blaster]

The usual suspects.

 

[The Friendly Monster]

So Mario is next week?

 

[Viewtiful Darkness]

Where's 7-10?

 

[keiichi]

Thanks. I was just wondering where the numbers were.

 

[starship]

Tetris at 500k now, I think it will be another +1m seller DS game.

 

[Archie]

Japan doesn't like games.

why do you always take the good replies?

 

[mutsu]

Tetris on track with my prediction of 1 million in 3 months

 

[LM4sure]

He must refresh faster than you.

 

[Campster]

Dammit. Until DS games stop selling like hotcakes I'm never going to be able to use my industry sales chart image macro. :/

 

[unifin]

No NSMB numbers yet?

 

[Lindsay]

;_;

Aw c'mon.....it can't even debut over 100k? >_<

 

[GhaleonEB]

Where's 7-10?

What he said. I'm assuming that's where the games are.

 

[StephaneC]

Medai Create and 6 games ... wowowow

 

[Archie]

No NSMB numbers yet?

wasn't out last week

 

[Burnst]

Mario Kart DS is back... :\

 

[Stormbringer]

Seems like each week, it's really the RACE to post this topic first :lol . So no wonder the typos and the half-chart...

 

[typhonsentra]

Does Nintendo just limit shipments of Brain Training? Why does it remain at the same level every week?

 

[polg]

wasn't out last week

isn't it out today? (aka 25th)

 

[Raw64life]

Same old, same old. Chart should look atleast a little different next week with NSMB and a couple of others coming out.

I wonder if Nintendo will just release 2 versions of the inevitable next Brain Age game ala Pokemon.

 

[Oblivion]

Poor AC.

But yeah, Mario will be coming next week. And hopefully it destroys! Can't wait.

 

[CoolTrick]

Brain Training series just reached 4,50(1),000 units in Japan.

 

[cvxfreak]

Great sales for Tetris. Should reach a million by maybe in the summer.

 

[Archie]

Brain Training series just reached 4,50(1),000 units in Japan.

It's just a fad!

 

[RaidenZR]

Huh. Wonder how much Nintendo anticipated Pokemon Ranger selling. It's not doing too bad.

Weren't there other major releases this week though? I coulda sworn...

 

[metropolis]

10 NDS Mario Kart DS - 16,000 (1,383,000)

fantastic legs for mario kart! it's sold much better than the GBA one which is a really good sign. especially for those people that keep saying non-games are killing off regular game sales.. whoever it was saying that.. can't remember exactly who.

Tabris, Monorojo, Heian-kyo

 

[JJConrad]

Seems like each week, it's really the RACE to post this topic first :lol . So no wonder the typos and the half-chart...

If that's the case, I've got next week's all ready:



Medai Create sales May 22-28

1 NDS New Super Mario Bros.
2 NDS Brain training 2
3 NDS Tetris DS
4 NDS Brain training
5 NDS Animal Crossing




The rest will come later...

 

[Error]

who were the people saying that AC wouldn't reached 3 million? :lol

wow I don't think even Nintendo expected this kind of success for AC

 

[Viewtiful Darkness]

who were the people saying that AC wouldn't reached 3 million? :lol

wow I don't think even Nintendo expected this kind of success for AC

I remember when people said that Animal Crossing wouldn't outsell Final Fantasy XII

 

[davepoobond]

pretty low week

at least .hack//gu is number 1 heh

 

[Burnst]

You can get Brain Training in every Japanese game shop (it's not limited), but there might be a relation between the Brain Training series sales and DS sales..

 

[Archie]

If I remember right (and I might not), Miyamoto said AC did about 4 times what Nintendo was expecting. And that was when AC just hit 2 million.

 

[CoolTrick]

Quite the old timer ain't ya!

 

[starship]

I can see 8-10 DS games in the top 10 next week.

 

[sprsk]

nintendo keeps releasing games and they just stick like flies on fly paper

 

[starship]

If that's the case, I've got next week's all ready:



Medai Create sales May 22-28

1 NDS New Super Mario Bros.
2 NDS Brain training 2
3 NDS Tetris DS
4 NDS Brain training
5 NDS Animal Crossing




The rest will come later...

But it seems you've got it from next-gen :lol
The correct chart will be something like this:

1. NSMB
2. Brain Training 2
3. Brain Training
4. Tetris
5. Animal Crossing

Where's the third party support? I don't see how anyone could consider this a success of any kind.

I'm sure there are at least 2 third party PSP games in the top 50, which will lead to more support from developers, thus more good games which will eventually make the DS obsolete. That's where the true battle is.

 

[Galactic Fork]

What are the predictions for NSMB?

Monorojo has hacked PhoenixDark.

 

[Clever Pun]

judging by the level of AC, BT's it looks like they are still stockpiling the DSL for the NA/European launches.

Is it still difficult to pick them up at stores?

 

[Rlan]

What are the predictions for NSMB?

Market watchers have suggested a possibility of "fucking shitloads".

 

[Error]

Where's the third party support?

FFIII?

 

[PhoenixDark]

FFIII?

That game doesn't count; it's a port. SE has actual new Final Fantasy games planned for the PSP. They weren't mentioned at E3, but they're coming. Believe.

The DS has little to no third party sales. When you take Tamigotchi and Nataru out the picture, the numbers are terrible.

Monster Kingdom, Valkyrie Profile Leenth, and Final Fantasy VII Advent Children sure did help the PSP make the DS obsolete.

Oh wait...

Monster Kingdom, a title was hyped up as a "killer app" for PSP in Japan bombed badly, Valkyrie Profile didn't have the strong legs Children of Mana has, and Final Fantasy VII Advent Children sold best on DVD.

You might as well not count any of the ports on PSP either then(Tales of Etereia, Breath of Fire 3, Suikoden 1+2, Valkyrie Profile, etc.)

 

[Error]

what the fuck? FFIII is far from a port.

 

[Archie]

lol you guys are falling for pd's joke posts

...unless

 

[PhoenixDark]

You guys took me seriously?:lol :lol :lol

My god GAF..Someone needed to carry on Mojowned spirit :lol
