Especially considering it scored a 39/40 in Famitsu.

?

Sorry, fixed. It was 2am and I was tired.

I think gamefront is saying DS sales were 604,000 for last week.

Mario · « **Reply #1004 on:** December 28, 2005, 01:16:58 PM »

If so

1) That is massive, record breaking stuff.

2) I should be a market analyst

BlackNMild2k1 · « **Reply #1005 on:** December 28, 2005, 06:21:35 PM »

UK Charts

enjoy

darknight06 · « **Reply #1006 on:** December 28, 2005, 07:01:10 PM »

Sonic Heroes beat out Mario Kart DS and Nintendogs... wow, just wow.

Mario · « **Reply #1007 on:** December 28, 2005, 07:09:35 PM »

Wow, that's a HORRIBLE chart, the UK is doomed, how could they buy that filth? I suppose every country buys crappy games, but that's unprecendented. Mario Kart and Nintendogs are both sold in bundles though so they could be (most definately are) much higher up in reality. Nintendo needs to advertise better over there, even in Australia they have a game in the top 10.

animecyberrat · « **Reply #1008 on:** December 28, 2005, 07:20:41 PM »

but wa Europe Segas domain in the old days, makes sense they woud out sell Nintendo there then.

BlackNMild2k1 · « **Reply #1009 on:** December 28, 2005, 07:23:32 PM »

wasn't it rumored that Nintendogs & MK were both on virtual sold out status for the last couple of weeks?

or was that just the bundles? or am I just remembering false facts?

Mario · « **Reply #1010 on:** December 28, 2005, 07:29:09 PM »

Not sure about Mario Kart, but Nintendogs has been sold out in a few (possibly all) European countries, with copies going for over $100 US on ebay over there.

Mario · « **Reply #1011 on:** December 29, 2005, 01:00:47 AM »

DS 597,000
PSP 161,000
PS2 97,000
GC 36,000
SP 35,000
GBM 19,000
360 5,000

Semi-official Media Create hardware numbers!

BlackNMild2k1 · « **Reply #1012 on:** December 29, 2005, 07:17:15 AM »

where is the Xbox?
was it finally pulled off the shelf?
or did they just combine Xbox & Xbox 360 since the #'s would change all that much?

vudu · « **Reply #1013 on:** December 29, 2005, 08:11:52 AM »

These numbers look to be rounded to the nearest thousand, which would put Xbox at 0. (Same with the original GBA.)

Avinash_Tyagi · « **Reply #1014 on:** December 29, 2005, 09:24:07 AM »

Heh, the DS still manages to outsell the PSP by almost 4 to 1

Mario · « **Reply #1015 on:** December 29, 2005, 02:51:15 PM »

Can someone update the YTD sales then...I'm mentally retarded, so I can't. Nintendo's gotta be up by at least 2 million against Sony in Japan now.

Mario · « **Reply #1017 on:** December 29, 2005, 07:27:50 PM »

YTD / LTD
DS - 3,761,175 / 5,256,771
PSP - 2,089,969 / 2,572,221
DS Lead - 1,671,206 / 2,684,550

BlackNMild2k1 · « **Reply #1018 on:** December 29, 2005, 07:40:44 PM »

But Iwata said DS was at 5.44 million

I can't believe he would lie to us like that
I'm never trusting Nintendo again!!

Artimus · « **Reply #1019 on:** December 30, 2005, 04:47:22 AM »

Media Create doesn't get EVERY sale.

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #1020 on:** December 30, 2005, 06:59:18 AM »

I love sarcasm with a little whipped cream and a cherry...Nah, make that TWO cherries!

Right now I'm more interested in how the DS did over here in Moronville...I keep hearing reports of AC and Mario Kart being sold out everywhere and that's pretty encouraging...

Relax dude, most of these third party reporting firms don't count every sale by every store, for example, NPD in the states doesn't ask for Wal-Mart's numbers, instead it estimates the sales at Walmart, Media-Create also likely misses some sales for similar reasons.

BlackNMild2k1 · « **Reply #1022 on:** December 30, 2005, 08:58:42 AM »

I really gotta remember to add a sarcasm tag to my post sometimes.

Atleast Bill likes it with 2 cherries

Martini to you Bill, cheers to the New Year!!

Mario · « **Reply #1023 on:** December 30, 2005, 01:42:01 PM »

I keep hearing about Animal Crossing being sold out over in the US too, but I have a feeling that's more likely because Nintendo screwed up and didn't ship enough.

animecyberrat · « **Reply #1024 on:** December 30, 2005, 04:07:14 PM »

now that you mention it I havent seen that game anywhere and I dont see nintenodogs either anymore, damn I should have gotten it sooner.
