I would say so. Unless you think 'bomba' means 'bomb', which it does not. 'Bomba' means 'big news'.
Where do you take this from? o_O

People giving meaning to words they don´t know <- Me :lol

Fetishing muscular manly men in skintight hosery
I don't know if Dragonquest Slime will garner the same attention that a regular DQ game would have gotten (forgetting the size of the DS base for a minute).

wow, nice numbers for both Handhelds.

DS is just a beast in Japan and PSP is doing surprising well.

*head explodes*

Holy crap @ DS numbers. Very impressive. Animal Crossing is the new Nintendogs.

But, PSP numbers aren't bad. Not at all really.

And the PSP numbers are surprising too. Did Sony do a giga pack thingy in Japan too?
Yes, that's why it spiked last week with 28K more than the week before.

What does spanish have to do with this?

Reirom speaks portuguese, and he has stated that 'bomba' mean 'big news'. Since he started the whole bomba thing, I think he would know what it means. Thanks you for playing.

So are Japanese DS and PSP hardware outselling U.S. DS and PSP hardware? It's gotta be pretty close.
October Japan / NPD
DS - 174,508 / 136,000
PSP - 116,155 / don't know but it's got to be higher than that

November Japan
DS - 294,215
PSP - 170,567

We'll see how Japanese November totals compare to NPD's November total when it's released.

The DS+PSP sales for this week in Japan, are roughly the sales of either the DS or the PSP in the US for the month.

no need to get on defensive mode here I was just trying to correct, bomba could also mean big news but generally around these boards bomba is mostly used to describe when a game has bombed hard or has sell very poorly.

Fuzzy said:

you see "bomba" can have both meaning because in spanish when there are big news we sometime say "bomba". so it's not like he is completely wrong though.

Oblivion said:
Wait, I just realized this:




But there were some major sellers on the GBA, from Capcom anyway, this week.
There have been 15 million GBA's (all kinds) sold in Japan, it's not like a big release is going to pull in a lot of new users. The only reason the PS2 went up this week is because the new silver PS2 was released.

Only Media Crates is accepted here. And according to them (i think)

Brain Training and Nintendogs is about 250K from platinum status. And they're not hitting plat status until some time next year, if sales remain steady.
