Interesting numbers, amazing to still see the GBA with a top selling game. As well as the Ps2! It is definitely clear that Nintendo needs a new home console, as the wii's games are not as dominate as it should be. But very impressive to see how successful the PSP is in japan. Neck and neck. The NGP will be a dominate force in Japan upon release, coming off the great momentum of the PSP. The 3DS will be in a 15+ million lead worldwide on release, but it is possible the NGP will catch and possibly outsell it (in japan, worldwide will be a tall order with lack of momentum).

Well it shows that PS2 hasn't stop selling and 3DS isn't doing to well in Japan. But I bet it will when a Mario game finally comes out for it.

>_< My bad, I miss the 2010 part.

Thanks for pointing that out, I give you a cookie (Bubble).

imoutofthecontest5509d ago

Heh it's understandable. Since it's April we don't normally think it'd be for 2010, but I guess that's how long it takes to add up all those numbers @_@

Congrats, Capcom.

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle27d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments

Crazy to think the WII is to the Switch 2, as the NES was to the WII back then. 20 Year difference.

My wife asks me to bust it out (heh) everyone once in a while to play bowling and tennis with the kids. There was a ton of slop on it but some good stuff as well.

Smellsforfree33d ago

Wii was great but boy howdy did it cause Microsoft to go on a dark walk with the Kinect and the disastrous XBox One launch that they arguably never recovered from.

Loktai32d ago

Not nostalgic for me.. I was there.. anyone who wasnt a little kid realized it was a gamecube with shit tacked onto it, it was the "joke" system and was well below even the switch in terms of comparing it to the latest machines at the time. The machine was well loved by young people and "casual gamers" who now remember it 20 years on, or in most cases more of its sales came in the 15-20 years ago range not right at launch- but again its not nostalgic for people who were "gamers" then really, just for those who ended up with one in their house, the games , graphics, interface and online features were archaic already in 2006.
