new releases in bold.

isn't thursday the big game release day in japan? if so wow at brain training at number 2 and big touch dic!

 

[ratcliffja]

Wow so touch dic is translated as easy pulling dictionary? That's perfect.

 

[sprsk]

ahhahaha the dictionary is #3

 

[Timen]

holy shit, look at that PSP title! it's insane!

 

[cvxfreak]

Minna no Golf Portable's legs are impressive.

 

[BuzzJive]

Dictionary!

Funny.

And look at that - an Xbox title - above the lone PSP title no less.

 

[jerrymaguire]

almost as funny as norton's anti virus in the UK charts for years.

looking at playasia's site, seems like you have to wait up to a week if you want to order the dictionary.

wonder if they'd do other dictionaries...? how about localised versions like America to English?? i mean, all the EFIGS territories? how about Korean?

 

[king zell]

no charts for the 16th ?

 

[ziran]

^
oops, mis-dayed

please could a mod change the 17th in the thread title to 16th?

what is 10 GBA Nonono puzzle (Nintendo) PUZ 2005/6/16?

 

[Calidor]

When a XBOX title is outselling any PSP game, you know something is worng :lol

 

[Rock_Man]

Horrible first day sales. Brain Training daily sales are around 4k. Drag on Dragoon 2 did probably a lot better though.

 

[ziran]

what is 10 GBA Nonono puzzle (Nintendo) PUZ 2005/6/16?

->

Nonono Movie

Nonono website

New puzzler from Creatures, the people who design most of the Pokemon characters.

Famitsu score : 7 / 7 / 7 / 6 - (27/40)

 

[Sgt. Killjoy]

Horrible first day sales. Brain Training daily sales are around 4k. Drag on Dragoon 2 did probably a lot better though.

Oh man, no wonder why Jade Empire is in there.

 

[turok4n64]

i do findit quite amazing that hot shots golf is back on the top 20 recently

 

[Rocket9]

Same for Gamecube. Ouch

 

[Ruzbeh]

Wow so touch dic is translated as easy pulling dictionary? That's perfect.

Touch Dic was the dictionary for Korea or something. I don't think it was made by Nintendo. The one in the charts in the official Nintendo Japanese dictionary thing.

ahhahaha the dictionary is #3

 

[jarrod]

Touch Dic was the dictionary for Korea or something. I don't think it was made by Nintendo. The one in the charts in the official Nintendo Japanese dictionary thing.

Yep. Touch DIC and DS Easy Dictionary are completely seperate non-games. Touch DIC is made by Daiwon C&A Holdings (who handle Nintendo distribution in Korea) and is only slated for Korean release so far.

 

[turok4n64]

god this is crazy...

 

[C- Warrior]

Bye bye Killer 7.

 

[GDGF]

Insane. I'll bet that dick touching dictionary stays at the top of the charts for some time, too. Non games are here to stay.

 

[Smiles and Cries]

well I really did not expect the Dictionary to be on the top 10 less so to end up on the top 5
Even though play asia will be sending my copy soon

 

[jgkspsx]

So... with Trauma Center starting at 7th place, presumably down in the 1500-2000 copy range, it's pretty safe to assume it's a JPN bomb?

I hope it does much better in the US. I'll be buying it, at least.

Hard to say since it is just the first day of sales for the title. We will see if it has legs or not.

No legs = bomba.

!!!

talk about long legs. but i also suspect it's a pretty slow sales time, still, ds sales are impressive.

 

[AniHawk]

Shit. Wario Ware Touched is in the top 10 again.

That's gotta be pushing 700k by now.

Hot Shots Golf might be nearing 400k too. Pretty damn good.

 

[Myoclonic Jerk]

what's #4 ?

 

[AniHawk]

what's #4 ?

Rakuhiki Jiten

 

[Rock_Man]

what's #4 ?

The dictionary.

 

[ziran]

what's #4 ?

Easy Dictionary

 

[GDGF]

Not to be confused with touch dic.

 

[Rock_Man]

Shit. Wario Ware Touched is in the top 10 again.

That's gotta be pushing 700k by now.

739,279 according to Famitsu.

 

[GDGF]

I'd imagine with Wario Ware back in the top 10, the Dictionary non game is pushing new NDS sales.

Another non game victory? We shall see

 

[AniHawk]

739,279 according to Famitsu.

So 770k for Media Create? When was the dropoff point for that in the top 10?

740k... That's 1 million between NA and Japan.

 

[Rock_Man]

Famitsu and MC numbers are almost equal for Wario.
April 10:
Famitsu - 708,615
MC - 710,371

 

[Andy787]

The dictionary is number four on a sales chart for videogames. The motherfucking dictionary.

Fantastic.

Ah, okay. Still very impressive.

Fantastic.

Ever keep track of UK sales?

 

[GDGF]

Ever keep track of UK sales?

Good point.

 

[Deleted member 1235]

someone explain to me how the same nintendo can be responsible for their console and their handhelds business.

how can people like one of their products so much, yet the console counterpart just takes a beating week after week.

[NintendosBooger]

someone explain to me how the same nintendo can be responsible for their console and their handhelds business.

how can people like one of their products so much, yet the console counterpart just takes a beating week after week.

Because Nintendo treats their consoles like a red-headed step child. It just seems, ever since the NES, that they've grudgingly been making next-generation console games, just so public awareness in that area is not lost on them.

 

[Rock_Man]

Famitsu May 16 - 22, 2005

No, it´s May 30 - June 5.

 

[Hero]

Is the Dictionary DS 'game' the one that can translate from Japanese to English and has the kanji-input thing?

 

[Reilly]

someone explain to me how the same nintendo can be responsible for their console and their handhelds business.

because the DS actually has games. I expect Zelda to at least be in the top 20 when it comes out.
