Wow, comparing Kirby DS to GBA and Advance Wars DS to GBA it becomes clear Advance Wars has done very well!

"Pokemon: Beach Blank-Out Blastoise - 57,548"
Is that a towel?

It's a GBA Video.

Okok... now, sorry, this is off topic, but is there anywhere that lists US sales on UMD movies?

No one even cares to count those.

Forgive me, but I just noticed this.

Classic Nes Series: Super Mario Bros. - 548,027
Classic Nes Series: The Legend Of Zelda - 360,732
Classic Nes Series: Zelda II: Adventure Of Link - 246,313
Classic Nes Series: Dr. Mario - 236,343
Classic Nes Series: Pac-Man - 197,472
Classic Nes Series: Metroid - 148,691
Classic Nes Series: Castlevania - 117,521
Classic Nes Series: Excitebike - 72,418
Classic Nes Series: Ice Climber - 69,186
Classic Nes Series: Bomberman - 62,303
Classic Nes Series: Xevious - 49,092

First, I can't believe so many people bought SMB. Here I was thinking that the Japanese are absolutely crazy for buying the re-re GBA release and now I find out that we're just as crazy.

Second, I can't believe Pac-Man sold so well. I don't even remember this game being released on NES. Although I suppose it's pretty stupid to think it wasn't. But still, who'd buy that when you can get one of the fifteen Namco collections that include Pac-Man plus another 3 or 4 games for the same price?

Third, are there really only 11 Classic NES Series games released? That seems like an odd number. Are we missing one?

Fourth, I can't believe so many people actually bought this game. Don't they know they can spend an extra $10 and get Zero Mission, complete with unlockable NES Metroid? Just sad.

And last, why hasn't there been a Classic NES Tetris released? You'd think this would be perfect. Especially considering no one's made a good Tetris game since Tetris Attack (or maybe Tetris DX; I can't remember which one came out more recently). Is there a problem with licensing?

Yeah it's a licencing issue. Nintendo used to have the rights to Tetris but now THQ does. Why else do you think the GBA Tetris game is horrible?

The GBA in all its forms outsells the PSP.

The DS outsells GBA.

Transitive property, bitches.

Artimus · « **Reply #660 on:** October 20, 2005, 06:12:57 PM »

I thought Princess Peach came out this week?

Anyway, I was right on with my PSP estimate (26,000-29,000) but a little off on my DS estimate (50,000). When do/does Peach come out? This current week?

I expect a hold for the DS around 40,000. If those games haven't come out yet then it could climb a little to around 48,000. PSP should continue it's drop to around 24-26,000.

Mario · « **Reply #661 on:** October 20, 2005, 06:57:48 PM »

Super Princess Peach came out yesterday October 20, so it will be in the next weekly figures.

GBA beated the psp last month ^_^

BlackNMild2k1 · « **Reply #665 on:** October 22, 2005, 01:01:17 PM »

GBA # also includes the GBM

BranDonk Kong · « **Reply #666 on:** October 23, 2005, 01:40:08 PM »

As well as it should, since GBA GBM and GBASP are all essentially the same system.

KnowsNothing · « **Reply #667 on:** October 23, 2005, 03:19:43 PM »

I wonder how much the GBPlayer sold.

BranDonk Kong · « **Reply #668 on:** October 23, 2005, 05:58:43 PM »

Sadly, only 3 units worldwide. Yes, 3 units.

Artimus · « **Reply #669 on:** October 23, 2005, 07:30:53 PM »

I own one of those 3 units then...

I love the GB player, it's all I use for GB games at home.

PaLaDiN · « **Reply #670 on:** October 23, 2005, 07:45:22 PM »

I own one too, who's the last person?

Me! Pick me!

Grant10k · « **Reply #672 on:** October 23, 2005, 08:33:39 PM »

My old room mate had one, before she went psycho, blamed me for all her problems and left to go to the other side of the country. She took the GBP with her.

PaLaDiN · « **Reply #673 on:** October 23, 2005, 09:55:39 PM »

So, is your old roommate Artimus or IceCold?

nitsu niflheim · « **Reply #674 on:** October 24, 2005, 04:31:18 AM »

I have one too, had it since they came out. But I don't play it all that much, sadly.
