[jman2050]

I posted the 8/24 yesterday

But yeah, a new topic would be nice. More and more pwnage by the DS I see.

 

[CoolTrick]

I'm sorry. I did a search, though, and it didn't come up. Might as well keep this.

 

[ziran]

even though it's a daily, it's amazing to see brain training at the top after all this time!

in miyamoto's interview with g4 he said Yawaraka Atamajuku included exercises that were entry requirements for japanese elementary schools, so this could be popular for a long time.

both these non-games are cheap and appeal to everyone, so their success is easy to understand, but still surprising [in a good way].

 

[GoutPatrol]

Whoa...why did Chihuahua just jump that much?

 

[Doogdogg]

Oh wow..... I wonder when the next Brain Training title will be released?

 

[Kroole]

Nice to see both of Konami's new DS titles in the top 10, though the sales can't have been that high, I guess. Maybe 7k for Survival Kids and 10k for Castlevania, at a push. Not so good for Twelve, Lunar and BoF3...

 

[Kurosaki Ichigo]

So we have 2 bombs that didnt make it to the top20

Cowboy Bebop PS2 <- huge bomb
Puzzle Bobble NDS

 

[BuzzJive]

Not so good for Twelve, Lunar and BoF3...

Even worse for DS Kyouryuu Grand Prix (was that the Dinosaur Racing game?) and Puzzle Bobble DS. But how many times can they release Puzzle Bobble?

 

[Taker666]

and Tiger Woods for the PSP.

 

[heidern]

Obviously Tales and Gundam will dominate the sales this week. Winning Post 5 debuted around 17K and Winning Post 6 debuted at 33K. So it's hard to say exactly how well this and Castlevania will do. They could realistcally debut anywhere between 10-50K. I'm guessing 30K each, which isn't great, but at least it's better than the 10K debuts of Famicom Wars and Goemon.

 

[nubbe]

dam... JSS is falling to fast...

 

[Smiles and Cries]

Whoa...why did Chihuahua just jump that much?

Chihuahua was the copy selling the least so maybe people who did not buy it then are now going for it. I also read there was a Chihuahua craze in Japan where people kidnap the dogs and resell them for $6,000

 

[mj1108]

dam... JSS is falling to fast...

The 8/25 list is for Thursday which is the day of new releases in Japan. It will return to where it was.

Why not go to the source? Every Japanese person must go to Mexico to get a Chihuahua now!

 

[MetatronM]

dam... JSS is falling to fast...

Not really. It went from 2nd to 11th because a very large number of new titles were released that day.

JSS, Naruto, and Winning Eleven will all be up again in a couple of days, probably.

 

[Soreda]

Sega will release brain training for PSP on Oct 20

Yes, and Sega has been selling "Brain Trainer" toys before Nintendo launched them for DS.

http://segatoys.co.jp/brain_trainer/index.html

And, since that professor's investigations, there have been a lot of "Brain Training" related things in Japan, afaik, not only toys or videogames.

 

[thestopsign]

I wouldn't be surprised if both Brain Training games outsell Nintendogs.

 

[typhonsentra]

Same. Brain Training is what really through Nintendo over the top, not Nintendogs IMO.

 

[thestopsign]

Any new charts?

 

[CoolTrick]

In a couple of hours.

bye bye PSP Games...

Somebody stop traditional games on the DS from continuing to sell so poorly!

How is Jump Super Stars not a traditional game? Or Mario & Warioware for that matter?

Should I add the words "non-Nintendo" then?

 

[VerTiGo]

Should I add the words "non-Nintendo" then?

No, because Advance Wars sold crappy too. This kind of sucks too because, while I am a little bit disappointed that games like Quendan didn't sell well at all, I'm even more disappointed that awesome games like Advance Wars, Full Metal Alchemist, and Castlevania get overlooked too! Why can't the Japanese fall prey to franchise gaming like North America? :lol However, I do believe that Jump Super Stars has the drawing power to bring some more traditional gamers over to the DS side.

 

[CoolTrick]

DS games have longevity. You may think they bomb initially, but they can actually racket up some sales after a few months on the market.

Ouendan is at 30k, but it only sold a third of that the entire time it was in the top 20.

 

[Myoclonic Jerk]

Castlevania?

A lot of good games in the 28/08 listing.

Ouendan is at 30k, but it only sold a third of that the entire time it was in the top 20.

how many copies does a low profile game like Ouendan have to sell to make profit?
(btw, my copy is on the way )

 

[sprsk]

brain training will never leave the top 10.

I think Power Pocket is doing pretty well.
