Demotruk - So what is that amount of games a game has to help a system for it to be a system seller in the "usual" sense.

And how many people specifically bought a DS for Brain Training? As in "I have to go buy A DS Right now so I can play Brain Training!"

There is no specific number in the same way there's no specific number required for a game to be described as "big". But it is an identifiable phenomenon. It happened with Monster Hunter for the PSP. Would anyone disagree with the idea that Monster Hunter was a different sort of phenomenon for PSP than FFXIII has been so far for PS3? So far, FFXIII is more like a much bigger Monster Hunter Tri, which would qualify as a "system seller" in the literal sense. I'm not excluding the possibility of FFXIII ending up a killer app which is why I said "not yet", though I don't see it happening.
