[XiaNaphryz]

And the Yakuza tumble begins. Will it still chart in the top 30 next week?

 

[VOOK]

Another Pokemon Ranger game? Please fuck off with this shit thx.

 

[Dead Prince]

12./00. [PSP] Echochrome (Sony)

nice.

 

[Scottlarock]

army of two 360>ps3 . wow.

 

[Tideas]

wow, Nintendo definitely know how to milk it's popular franchise. They can just release a pokemon game, have like, 1 dungeon, 1 pokemon, and ppl will still buy 1 mill of it.

Btw, Army of Two 360 > Army of Two PS3?

Interest. It has begun!

 

[PantherLotus]

wow I didn't even know that a Sim City DS 2 was in the works much less already being released!

 

[dkeane]

That sim city box art is hot.

 

[Grecco]

army of two 360>ps3 . wow.

Wow what?

 

[Filter]

lots of new stuff.
what's the deal with sim city 2 ds? is it any good?

 

[PantherLotus]

You guys realize that the difference between 360 Ao2 and PS3 Ao2 is probably less than a thousand?

read: nobody wants it

 

[ethelred]

Sakura Taisen DS did terribly. Its first day sales were pretty good, but it positively tanked after that. Oh well. At least it did better than Dodgeball and Baingai-o!

 

[GhostSeed]

Bangai-Owned

 

[jakncoke]

How did the last Armored Core game do?

 

[PantherLotus]

more specifically, nobody wants it less on the 360 than nobody wants it on the PS3.

 

[icecream]

Good riddance.

How did the last Armored Core game do?

Less than these two. The PS3 version then also outsold the 360. Another multiplatform Japanese game, another piece of evidence that PS3 ports sell better.

 

[Osuwari]

damn gundam musou ps2. it could have been the first time with no PS2 games at all in the top 30 since it came out (i'm not sure if it has happened already. i think even in the nintendo top 28 of 30 titles week there were ps2 games there)

ok debuts all around.

edit:

21./22. [NDS] Mario Kart DS (Nintendo)

what in the flying fuck is going on? how did it manage to go up with so many new releases??

 

[sprsk]

Treasure, Maegawa-san, I tried

 

[Firestorm]

This does not bode well for localized Rebirth

 

[sprsk]

I think I might just go buy a second copy of Bangaio.

 

[Saitou]

Oh snap, those are some nice numbers for SimCity 2. I totally didn't expect it to sell at all honestly. Anyone know how the first one did LTD?

 

[jakncoke]

I think I might just go buy a second copy of Bangaio.

:lol

 

[sprsk]

I'm totally not kidding though, the game is so good I would buy a second copy.

 

[kassatsu]

army of two 360>ps3 . wow.

PS3 version sold more according to famitsu. Not that it really matters, it will be off the charts next week anyway XD

20.Army of Two (PS3)　11000
23.Army of Two (360)　8900

 

[favouriteflavour]

So western multiplatform games = 360, Japanese multiplatform = PS3?

 

[DoubleTap]

Deca Sporta?

Is it any Gooda?

 

[SabinFigaro]

If SimCity DS was based upon SimCity 3000, is the sequel just a further modification, or an entirely new engine?

 

[PantherLotus]

Deca Sporta?

Is it any Gooda?

It's a casual sports game from hudson.

 

[AniHawk]

I think I might just go buy a second copy of Bangaio.

Can I have it?

 

[Jiggy]

This does not bode well for localized Rebirth

Sad indeed.

21./22. [NDS] Mario Kart DS (Nintendo)

13, thirteen new releases, all ahead of Mario Kart DS and it gained a single position.
I wonder how many copies of Deca Sporta Hudson shipped, nice numbers nevertheless and it looks fun.

 

[DoubleTap]

It's a casual sports game from hudson.

I just clicked on the link and it looks intriguing. Volleyball and Badminton! I hope it's as good as Wii Sports.

 

[ethelred]

People thought Tales of Rebirth had a chance of localization? How quaint.

 

[Grecco]

I just clicked on the link and it looks intriguing. Volleyball and Badminton! I hope it's as good as Wii Sports.

I think it has Curling too. (Which might be fun with the wiimote)

 

[Jiggy]

Come to think of it, considering that Namco brought over Tales of the World rather than however many other real entries in the series, maybe Tales of Rebirth selling shy of 50k in its first week will give it a greater chance. I don't know what's what with their twisted decisions, honestly.

 

[Olaeh]

Looks like Deca Sporta knocked Wii Sports down a few slots. I imagine Deca will drop off rather soon though.

 

[Scottlarock]

Wow what?

that the 360 can outsell anything ps3 in japan.

 

[Grecco]

that the 360 can outsell anything ps3 in japan.

Tends to happen with Western games.

 

[Firestorm]

Namco hates 2D.

 

[PantherLotus]

wow cool it with the racist comments!

Spoiler

(sarcasm)

 

[sprsk]

Can I have it?

HMMMmmmmmmmm

 

[blitz64]

I wonder if mario kart Wii will have 2 years worth of legs like mario kart ds.

 

[Tiktaalik]

wow I didn't even know that a Sim City DS 2 was in the works much less already being released!

Yeah really? Did any JGAFers pick this up? Impressions?

The cover art is really awesome.

How did this Pokemon Ranger debut perform against the last Pokemon Ranger?

 

[cvxfreak]

I wonder if mario kart Wii will have 2 years worth of legs like mario kart ds.

The N64 game had 2 years worth of legs too actually. And I'd bet good money the SFC game had legs too.

 

[Defuser]

I think I might just go buy a second copy of Bangaio.

Save that money for MHP2G. Buying a second copy isn't gonna help out

 

[sprsk]

I will not play a portable game till Bangaioh gets the respect it deserves.

 

[Defuser]

I will not play a portable game till Bangaioh gets the respect it deserves.

Don't play a DS portable game but play a PSP portable game. It's the DS consumers at fault for not buying good games like Bangaioh.

 

[rollingstart]

I'm totally not kidding though, the game is so good I would buy a second copy.

just buy a US copy when it comes out.

hell, I have 2 copies of God Hand and several other games because I liked them so much.

awesome, apparently Umihara Kawase shipped and along with it should (according to stupid shipping stupid stuff) come with my copy and the Gundam 00 DS game.

 

[Grecco]

I dont see why your so insistant Defuser. Its not like Capcom will be missing out on his sale.

 

[rollingstart]

I am also quite shocked that Armored Core is that popular that it would be number 3. This isnt even a number sequel, it is like an expansion pack.
