DKC:R is really strong in Germany 
Banjo 3 was at one point a platform game but Conker bombed and the team had to go back to the drawing board because MS didn't want platformers anymore.apana said:
The biggest problem for people who work there and who are not happy right now is that they're part of the 'Rare Family' that means that they're credited in some sort of special thanks section but haven't worked on a shipped title since 2005. When your name isn't attached to a game for over five years, you're going to have a problem when you search for a new job.

Netherelands is bloody awsome. Having *some random football star* and Donkey Kong love is just too awsome for such a man made island that could be covered by flood one day.Kenka said:And DKC:R topped NED charts this week (beware, this is normally part of the week 52 thread) :

WTF?! What happened to DKCR?!
Has Game's price hike really done that much damage?

Somebody on PAL threads was keeping track of number of weeks that motion control games charted (for all platforms). I am not quite sure what the idea was (maybe proving Kinect titles falling off the charts faster than Wii's or Move's?) but I am not seeing the comparison charts anymore.
A Kinect game outselling GT5 - not bad going but helped by GT5's 40% drop

Don't think so. It's readily available at a price as low as 35 EUR - Nintendo's Wii titles cost just as much as their DS evergreens nowadays. I'm happy that I finally found NSMB DS for only EUR 18 at Amazon.de, but that deal disappeared pretty quickly.
Concerning shortages, Wii Party had some severe shortages most recently due to being bundled with the Wii Remote. Now the bundle is no longer available and Nintendo released it as a standalone package for EUR 30.
Nonetheless, right now the black Wii Remote Plus is still in short supply and mighty expensive over here in Germany.
I suspect a lot more people got Kinect (w/ 360 or standalone) than PS3 for Christmas and they decided to buy the best 2 games for it. GT5 is one of many games on PS3, so it's business as usual.Dynoro said:
It'd be great if Kinect Sports hit Golden Eye numbers eventually. Meltdowns woulb be legendary.

I don't get it, why did Wii titles NOT get a bump during Christmas. I mean, Ubisoft made the job but the rest pales in comparision. And the DKC:R drop is way to sharp to explain it that way. I don't get why it was sent to sewers in merely two weeks. That makes no sense.
I can give you some anecdotal evidence of this. A friend of mine was working in a GameStop store here in Ireland over the Christmas period and said that DK:CR had serious shortages. She said they'd get in 10 copies and they'd sell out within an hour, and it seemed to be the case in many of their stores. (The Michael Jackson Experience had the same shortages too but I don't think anyone here cares about that gameKenka said:
). I'm pretty sure stores in Ireland and the UK share the same suppliers so if there are shortages here there could very well be shortages in the UK.Oh and as for price hikes, she told me that Nintendo themselves raised the prices of the games? And that Microsoft raised the price of a standard 360 controller. Supply and demand at Christmas I guess.
Thing about Kinect Sports - is that its a fantastic game. Its Kinects Killer app. It sells the system.
Edit: Motherf*ck it moved up to #3?? Rare must be signaling for coke and hookers as we gloss over the charts :lol
And a happy new year to you to Rare!!!
HAters suck it - Kinect running things in UK/US

I think the news refers to sales of all formats lumped together rather than separated and that's why Joy Ride was left off.

I for one am happy to see it.
The game sales are primarily down to copying Nintendo again - actually advertising the games in a way that appeals to normal people as well as gamers! The 360 ads are so common (especially Dance Central) and the fact that sports is still outselling it despite less adverts is amazing. I guess the Wii taught us all that sports are No1!
Wouldn't be surprised if the Hardcore continues to degrade at 25-40% a week and the casual games float up to be number 1. Be fab if that game was Kinect Sports, but could easily be JD2.
