I don't think Famitsu counted download cards then. NSMB was the first of it's kind like that I think, along with Brain Training. Famitsu expanded it's tracking method it seems.

Mmmm... seems odd... If Famitsu expanded its tracking, now it should track NSMB 2 download cards as well. Why leave the game behind, while Animal Crossing is tracked? And this week and last week numbers NSMB 2 was lower than Media Create.

Or do you think Famitsu will only track Download cards from games released after Animal Crossing? Anyway, I'll ask on Neogaf.

We don't know if they are or aren't tracking download cards for NSMB2 now.  They can't retroactively count them.  More accurate tracking has to start somewhere, and if that begins with Animal Crossing then so be it.  I'd be interested in hearing what they have to say about this on GAF.  Or perhaps VicViper can weigh in as well.
