This is insane. I left work, went to the gym, came home and find 4 pages of nothing. PM me when there are hardware figures in this thread.

Go do something productive if your time is so valuable.

Excellent sales for CoR, FSW, and LoZ:FSA.

Very surprised at the NES Classics.

I think a new thread would be better. Thanks for posting what you did!

Put them in a new thread. That way it should be easier to read, and easier to search for past NPD threads since all we gotta do is search for threads created by you

Classic NES sales:

bunkum said:
GBA MARIO VS. DONKEY KONG $3,131,446 102511
GBA SUPER MARIO CLASSIC $2,144,496 110627
GBA ZELDA CLASSIC $2,000,679 102166

Let it be noted:

Nintendo may not be good at everything, but they seem to be incredibly good at making money.

(Real money, too -- the kind with profit.)

Sure, it would have been better if it was every NES game ever made, including Chubby Cherub, on a single GBA cart, for $1.95, including a free rimjob, as every forum poster on earth whined. But that wouldn't have made them $7 million dollars, now, would it?

Justin Bailey · Jul 21, 2004

Put 'em in a new thread. This one's a mess.

Oh great, another 'boy am I glad Nintendo isnt online!' post

Baron Aloha · Jul 21, 2004

The 7 million figure people are using is wrong. 3.1 million of the 7 million is for MARIO VS DONKEY KONG (not the NES Classic Donkey Kong). That's not an NES Classic. Mario and Zelda by themselves made 4.1 million.

Memles · Jul 21, 2004

Well holy crap...those GBA Classic Sales are insane. At this rate...there's an off chance that SMB Classic might just break 1 Million worldwide.

Still want Advance Tour Sales!

Thanks, Kreskin, for using your great mind vortex to mystically conjure words I never said! That's truly amazing!

I was actually talking about the NES Classics making money. I'm sorry if that's really difficult for your attention span but OH MY GOD SPONGEBOB IS ON TV LET'S TOTALLY WATCH IT

I originally predicted 225K for PS2, 210K for Xbox, and 85K for GameCube. Based upon the sales of Halo, I now raise my Xbox projection to 250K.

Any day now...

I raise my Xbox prediction to 85k based on Halo's perfomance.

NPD threads are always dangerous in this way.

Hmmm, makes me wonder, doesn't at least one person get banned in every NPD thread?

seismologist · Jul 21, 2004

Those Riddick sales are pretty low for the first movie based FPS that's better than Goldeneye.

Not to mention its release is in conjunctions with a pretty big summer movie.

Cubsfan23 · Jul 21, 2004

It's the 2nd month of sales for Riddick. Right?

By "it's," you mean July, then yes.

GBA SUPER MARIO CLASSIC $2,144,496 110627
GBA ZELDA CLASSIC $2,000,679 102166

...and I bought all 3. Guess it's only a matter of time before Classic NES Series 2 makes it's way here.

I think the point of Matlocks comment went right over your head.

You're reading too far into "holy shit, this didn't sell too well" if you think there's a point.

apujanata · Jul 21, 2004

Can you please post the data for April 2004, Konami, and the following games :
TEENAGE MUTANT TURTLE GBA
YU-GI-OH! SACRED CARD GBA

OMG...that's just sad. There's no hope for humanity. Why do I think that if Nintendo released "Mario Bros" as a standalone game it would still get high sales EVEN when it comes for free in every other GBA Mario game?

cvxfreak · Jul 21, 2004

No we haven't. We still need our Nintendo GBA totals from Meier/jarrod, your Sega totals, the damage control and assesments on the future.

STAY TUNED TO GAF.
