Media Create Sales 2/26 - 3/4

I hope DS still dominates even after next gen starts to take off. I hope it lives a PS2-level lifespan (including lots of jawesome games, which it's doing quite nicely with right now).

Just wanted to give Cheesemaster props for the lack of Pacman/Nintendo software chart. It was getting a bit old and smacked of opportunism. It was cool for a moment, though. Thanks for keepin' it professional.

This is getting ridiculous.

"Professional" looking Media Create threads? I think the whole thing is ridiculous and dislike that someone is trying to make some kind of claim on the threads now because of extraneous stuff that no one cares about, and, in fact, just makes the first post look cluttered. Especially with the pompous linking of other Media Create threads that only he has started, as if that's the beginning of the official recordings or something.

Oh snap!

So close...Am I right in thinking there being much rejoicing when it finally crosses that milestone?

On the contrary, it seems ridiculous to me that you're acting so bitter that instead of there being a rush to start a thread 5 seconds before someone else, there's one set person doing it well,

Give CoolTrick a break. Now that ioi is barred from MC threads, he needs someone new to bitch about non-stop.

I don't know guys...I'm not that impressed.

Obviously the graphical style is pure sex, as is the art design. But the gameplay still looks old to me, just with a new paint job. Many of the puzzles shown so far are extremely straight forward and obvious; maybe it's because these videos are from the beginning of the game. I mean, the part where you come to a large jump you can't get over...you just push A to switch to 3D and go over...uh.

To make matters worse, the Wii additions look like they were thrown on. When Zelda TP for the Wii was first shown the controls were clearly tacked on, but by the time the game came out the controls were much fuller, and the additions were worthwhile. Here you have a game that is ready to ship, but I haven't seen or heard anything that suggests the Wii stuff is imaginative.

I hate being being negative, especially in a thread full of people (and mods) so hyped for a game...but this isn't grabbing me.

Yeah, this is exactly how I feel about the Pac-Man charts, too. Phoenix, thou art a poet on the level of only Homer himself.

That's what Square gets for all those years of only letting us do max damage of 9999.

Please don't kill me if that joke was already made. :(

Stop it. Don't complain about things that are not true.

WTF?

Cheese is doing an awesome job. The Media Create threads are something everyone looks forward to each week, and they are all presented very well. It's a clean, easy-to-navigate interface that is impressive but doesn't get in the way. It's very informative. What's to dislike?

I am slightly turned off by the fact Cheesemeister won't do anything manually should his program fail him, but why didn't you voice any opposition a few weeks ago when everyone was figuring out what the best layout was? The layout's exactly the same was the one I used except there are URLs this time.

Maybe you have bad vision, which is why you can't tell the difference between Japanese and Korean? :lol

Only thing I'll add is that I could do without the top 5 covers. Or at least put them at the bottom of the post. Otherwise, umm it's the same layout.

Keep the covers. But the whining bitch up above has a point: I want links to the threads that started BEFORE you took over. Maybe just find an old post of yours in another thread and edit it to include links from everything (nicely formated plz), and then link to it in your OP. Nobody will notice the missing/edited post. Just hope they don't reply to it. ;)

If we're making demands and requests for the MC threads then I want Ice cream sundaes or maybe what the **** were those things called, the ice cream sticks that looked like a face. I want those handed out every time the Wii outsells the PS3. OH and hookers, lots of hookers too. I fully expect this to happen by next week.

I propose the pacman chart changes so the Wii games are the power pebbles and any 360 game would be the fruit seeing as there'll probably only ever be one on the chart. lol

I really hope you're being sarcastic! There's no way we could expect him to buy all those ice cream things... not to mention prostitutes, and plane fare to get them to us. You're just a bad person!

I didn't mean for everyone. Mostly just for me and maybe like 2 or 3 other people, but always me every week, and the other people can be picked from a lottery. Did I mention always me every week cause I want some ****ing icecream bars that look like a face, fed to me by hookers.

Wait for X is old news. That was a traditional argument for the GC. We need something NEW. Galaga chart would be pretty good.
 
In the old MC topic, I think Panther Lotus was talking about Wii hardware trends:

28/01/07 83754
04/02/07 65740
11/02/07 78550
18/02/07 63618
25/02/07 78506

It looks like this week it should be just a LITTLE bit less than 63,000. They seem to fluctuate at 80 ~ 60 every week, but each week drops by a small margin (83 - 79 - 78) (65 - 63). Who knows though, it could be like the DS and be totally unpredictable

It's excellent to see how well Prof. Leyton is doing. I attribute it not only to the dedication Level 5 put into the Nintendo DS title, but Nintendo's own sheer brilliance of coming up with the Nintendo DS "Touch Generation" genre in the first place. Leyton has now been in the Top 10 for 4(?) weeks now and is quickly becoming one of the fastest selling third party DS titles in Japan ever.

On top of that, New Super Mario bros. keeps creeping back on the chart, Brain Age 2 keeps sitting there, and Animal Crossing, like a persistent little bugger, JUST misses the Top 10 again. I'm sure Pokemon Diamond and Pearl would be up there as well if combined. These 4 titles just don't seem to stop selling, no matter how long they've been out. They are unstoppable.

Bah. I don't care how discriminate they were. I miss the pac-man charts. It was fun making a mockery of anything not Nintendo.

Cheesemeister, you'd better think of something to top the brilliance of the already brilliant pac-man charts you had created.



Pretty please?

That's the thing. We actually don't encourage indiscriminate bashing. That's for other, less civilized forums. ;)
