it's one of the greatest games of all time, it deserves it



This is why Nintendo priced it at 9.99. People will buy it anyways.

Never played this on my SNES, the more I hear about it, the more it's enticing me to download on the eshop.



When I checked yesterday it was at eighteen...
I'm playing the game for the first time, and so far I've found it deserves every bit of praise it gets...
I hope it climes higher...



Have a nice day...

So. Assume that Nintendo alreaddy paid for the rights? Then 9.99 is pure profit each game now. They should not be hurting for money with their backlog. 1 million would be 10 million quick cash.

This game isn't selling a million any time soon. 3DS eShop games don't sell a million, and that's on a global install base ten times the size of the Wii U's.

A game around #14 in the 3DS eShop in America would have sold a bit shy of 100k. So this is in Europe, a smaller market, and on the Wii U, on a smaller install base...... maybe it sold 20k to get to #14? Maybe.

Sure, $200,000 is nice, but it's a far cry from $10,000,000.

Well, Animal Crossing around 1 million digitally, if not more alredy (worldwide... smash hit digitally in japan). And I'm pretty sure titles like Pokemon Dream Radar (#1 in all regions for months) cracked million long time ago.



So it's number 7 all time if you remove the 30 cent promo games.
