This week was interesting. Worms 2 is still new on the marked, and the new Sonic for Nintendo DS, Sonic Rush Adventures, was released in Europe, doing pretty well this first week. The best game to debut this week has to be Pokémon Mystery Dungeon, though. Combined they enter the Top 10 this week at spot number 6, and will almost certain climb their way up a few more spots this upcoming week, seeing as the game only released this past thursday.
What's more, this weekend had the two most active days ever, it seems. I haven't seen anything higher since I started tracking this, at least. Saturday saw almost 1100K connections and sunday almost had a million as well. Sadly, this was after one of the worst weeks in a long time, having days with only around 500k connections, going down to 516k at the lowest this week. It'll be interesting to see when the next day with over a million connections will happen.
The complete chart for week 37 of 2007 can be seen underneath.
Please note
- The number of connections listed in here is not unique connections, just the total number of connections for the service during the past week.
