Vinnk: as long as you provide some sort of warning (not that it wouldn't be obvious) that what you're saying is anecdotal, observation, and conjecture, I think it is extremely valuable and look forward to it.

Yoshi's Island DS is fitting imo, as it's the direct succcessor of a Mario mainline game. But the number is totally off, as Yoshis Island DS broke a million according to Media Create in 2007 and I highly doubt Famitsu is more than 100k units behind - or are they?Osuwari said:

Same here, i also enjoy readinging Vinnk's Village Report and the graphs that are being posted here, but i dont comment om them that much.Tenbatsu said:I enjoyed reading them too
Stumpokapow
listen to the mad man
Edit: Vinnk, to be perfectly honest, I think that the weekly Vinnk's village is probably less important now that hardware is no longer supply constrained and this gen has settled into a bit of a holding pattern, but periodic reports on new software would be interesting.
For example, Nanashi no Game dropped off the charts and according to Wired is difficult to find in Tokyo and no one expects a reprint. What gives? rk told me there are "tons of copies" where he's at. What about you? --or more recently, the 360, and Nintendo's latest round of DS games.
Basically I think the best part of your anecdotes was getting that little nugget of info about games and systems that were supply constrained, so I'd love to see a Vinnk's village whenever there are rumblings about an interesting title being sold out or hard to find.
Paper Mario would be there, but it didn't sell enough. It sold less than all of the "also-ran" Mario games listed above the main graph. I'd also be willing to include PM:TTYD or SPM or M&L or M&L2. None of them broke 500k.
All games that are there should be there IMO and the only game that should be there and isn't is Yoshi's Island SNES, which I understand sold ~1.7 million. When I update the graph to remove all the the-magicbox numbers for pre-GBA systems, I'll hopefully be able to get an exact figure and get Yoshi a place on the chart.

^ that is absolutely flooring. If there was no Nintendo or Square Enix (ever) the best selling game of all time would be...Street Fighter 2??!!
also: op updated with correct top 50 but will need to reformat when i get to work.
vinnk: post your deal and i'll make sure it gets in the op every week so it's easy to find.

Pretty good for a game that just came out of the blue, with virtually no hype and something completely different than normal.

Considering it's Skip, the budget for the game was probably 10000 yen and a round of Mega Macs.

Full set...
PS3 Afrika - 20.000
PSP Fate Tiger Colosseum Upper - Eh...not sure, 20k? (last year entry did 40k)
PS3 Battlefield Bad Company - 11.000
360 Too Human - 6.500
WII Captain Rainbow - 4.300
360 Clannad - 3.800
sinobi comments that Afrika actually has sold better than expectations and some shops (plus amazon) seem to be running out of stock. He says Captain Rainbow numbers are expected, and he is surprised at Clannad 360 numbers because PSP edition sold 20k in May.

Thanks for the first day numbers, creamsugar and Kurosaki Ichigo!
I thought Afrika would do like 10k or so the first day (my thoughts on this wasnt really based on much previous data or anything, i just thought this type of game wouldnt sell so good for some reason), and that Captain Rainbow would do better, maybe like 20k or so. Isnt Captain Rainbow a first party Nintendo title?

It's been pretty hyped for a while, so 10k first day would have been pretty disappointing.
No, it's by Skip & published by Nintendo. It seems to be a twisted loveletter to obscure Nintendo characters with pretty limited appeal, so that kind of first-day figure was hardly unexpected.

Yeah, contrary to what one might think, "published by Nintendo" isn't an automatic gimme for big sales.

I know there was some hype around when Afrika first was announced, but lately i havnt seen that much hype. I'm not saying there havnt been any hype around the game lately though, but personally i cant recall to have seen too much hype around the game lately.Cosmonaut X said:
Ah ok, so its only published by Nintendo. I mean i've read something about that game and Nintendo in the same context, so i thought it had something to do with Nintendo atleast. Thanks for the info!Cosmonaut X said:

10k for Afrika actually would have been my expectations, too. It's only first day sales and this game was underground for a looooong time.
Well, it's not only published by Nintendo - most of the characters in the game are Nintendo characters too. But the point is that they are b-list Nintendo characters, and sales expectations should be set accordingly. Also, it'll probably keep selling over the weekend. Maybe 10k for the first week is doable?test_account said:Ah ok, so its only published by Nintendo.
