Sega did publish it in North America, the two companies split up publishing rights by platform and region. Come to think of it, it all makes sense now; it's selling great in Europe because it's published by Nintendo, and it's not doing nearly as well in North America because it was published by Sega.

[Mario]

It's published by Sega in Europe too. Only in Japan did Nintendo publish it. It's not doing as well in America because Nintendo was too greedy and forced every disc produced to be Galaxy, I could be way off but every report i've heard from there has Olympics sold out. Hence Galaxy not doing as well in Europe, because people didn't HAVE to buy it, and it's not a game with huge appeal.

[BranDonk Kong]

Is that an error in the most recent Euro sales then? It says Mario and Sonic blah blah (Nintendo).

Family Ski is hanging in there.

[Chozo Ghost]

NDS gets outsold by the PSP AGAIN?! What nonsense is this?

[that Baby guy]

How long has it been since the DS lowered it's price?  And how large of a lead does the DS have right now?

Though it doesn't look it, Nintendo has neared the saturation point for it's price in Japan.  They'll need to lower it a little, and sales should perk back over the PSP again.

[Louieturkey]

Or release that DSBig that has been rumored.  That'll spark a lot of sales.

[GoldenPhoenix]

Wait I thought PS3 was supposed to catch up to and surpass the Wii according to analysts? It is going the wrong way!

[Ceric]

I thought that was in the US.

[soracloudtidus]

21./09. [PS3] Devil May Cry 4 (Capcom)....wow.... as for those saying psp won 2 weeks in a row against the ds, just look at the YTD and LTD, I don't think we have to worry about anything do we?

[Chozo Ghost]

The DS still holds a slight lead on the YTD, but yeah, the LTD has the DS WAY ahead.

[Ceric]

It looks like Bandia-Namco is the Winner this week with the only game to go up in the rankings with Family Ski.

[craigie]

just wondering playing Zelda for wii how wii can sell so much as i find joystick ****!
sorry is only soft word i could find to describe it
always point at screen and always loses tone,1 would think with these numbers they could at least make a better receptor for joystick and nun chuck

i loved the game but im board of my wii and Zelda after non stop point at screen text
i feel deep inside if i could of afforded a 360 it may have been a better chose

[NinGurl69 *huggles]

zelda does not matter

24./00. [PS2] NiGHTS into Dreams... (Sega) New!

Looky NiGHTS the original is back for the PS2.  It's like release PSO Universe where your PSO Fans aren't all over again.

[Toruresu]

Devil May Cry 4 = BOMB

Anyone have the numbers for the US sales? This makes me wonder how good/bad will MGS do.

[Kairon]

DMC4 is on par for the course for HD traditional games in Japan. I'm sure the American numbers for it are very good though.

[Deguello]

Not really, Kairon.  It benefits from being on two platforms at the same time, but the added costs of doing so and the hidden cost of sacrificing other projects for its well-being is hurting Capcom.

[Kairon]

You're right. Hmm. I guess that the western markets will really decide this for Capcom.
