The number of connections took a hit this week and fell about a million. In the end of the week, they began to rise again, so hopefully it won't be permanent. Worms: Open Warfare 2 is still climbing the charts, and it could very well hit the Top 10 eventually. Next week will be interesting, the new Pokémon Dungeon-games will be released in Japan. The original games sold about 1.5M units in Japan alone, so these should fare well. Will we see a third Pokémon-title in the Top 10 next week?
The complete chart for week 36 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.
- These data are straight off of Nintendo's Wi-Fi site, through the freeware program WFCStatus.
