RolStoppable said: The DS finally took off in America when NSMB released SNIP You aren't going to refute my claim by posting Japanese numbers. |
Thanks for not mentioning I offered global numbers which come quite close to US numbers relatively speaking, but you're right I shouldn't have piggyback on my work for step 2. Here they are the USA numbers for 2006 (The year NSMB launched).

As I said, 2D Mario's got friends.

You can go ahead and attribute the rise of the DS in America solely to the DS Lite which was launched not too long after NSMB, but given that NSMB still showed up in the NPD charts in 2011, you should think twice about doing that. |
You were talking about the initial spurt growth of the DS, not the lifetime sales.
Well, it's a good sign when your only retort is that I didn't offer the USA charts. Everything else is good then (other 8 points)?
