Why do I have "such a problem accepting" something that's not actually supported by the most accurate data available?  The better question might be why are you so hell bent on making a claim to that effect?  VGC data doesn't even support that notion thanks to Jungle Beat, a game you admitted to never owning yet tried to discount out of hand because of how it played (or how you think it's played... have you ever played it btw?)... and yet, somehow I'm the the one trying to distort things from "what it is".  L.O.L.

At best, you can say differing data shows DKCR as the best and not the best (but NOT the worst) series debut in 3 generations.  So tell me again, how is that at all remotely "the same with GT5"?

And please, leave the personal mudslinging aside and try to stay on topic.  I'm here to actually talk about game sales, thanks. <3

I hinted in my first post that I hadn't played it. If I did, I'd have known you could play it with a normal controller. I just knew it had those silly bongos. Did you even read my post?

But yeah, if we can include Jungle Beat... GT5 is not the lowest opening for a GT game ever!! It's actually in front of 3 other games! Go GT5! <3

GT5 is outdoing GT PSP, so it's not the worst.

Well... that's true.  DKCR is also outselling every handheld DK platformer ever, so that's at least actually something they do share in common.

Wrong again.

It's actually at a statistical tie with Donkey Kong Land.

lol someone is a bit upset and on full damage control I see, having trouble accepting this weeks numbers I guess.


I know... looks like carl can't let it go :s

@Carl... If you want to compare DK numbers with VG data, you should wait until we get the VG numbers for DK..... don't you think?

Again... if you want to use Vg numbers, you should really wait until we get DKCR numbers in, it could end higher or lower than MC ones.....

I just did what jarrod did. He used 2 trackers... So did I. I see no problem here. Why don't you have a go at jarrod instead. Although I already know the reason why you aren't doing. And I already know the reason why you're siding with him.

Will be funny to see your answer anyway.

Again... Why don't you tell jarrod the same thing with his comparing of Media Create DKCR Week 1 and Famitsu past games?

If he can do it. So can I...

By the way, jarrod.

If you're so eager to do comparisons and call GT5 the lowest opening ever for a GT game on consoles.

You're even wronger!

  • GT Concept 2001 Tokyo - 247,667
  • GT4 Prologue - 209,743
  • GT5 Prologue - 109,356
  • Gran Turismo 5 - 424,737

And before you start. Yes. This is reaching. But if it's okay for you, it's okay for me to do too! :D

I'm not reaching, I'm presenting rock hard data to support what I say.  Series comparisons with full series installments from the most respected tracker out there... and in return, you've discounted games you seemingly haven't played, childishly cried how you can use VGC data if you want to (yes, you can, good for you), throw up admittedly disingenuous comparisons with demos and cast vague/tired system wars insinuations.  Yeah, I guess it is okay for you to reach, I mean it's nearly all you've doing in this entire thread.

hahahahahaha like he said, isn't famitsu the most reliable data out there in japan???

I am the one that knows what's going on here, as im sure everyone else does....

So why is Jarrod being attacked for claiming that DKCR is the best opening for the DK franchise in 3 gens based off MC/Famitsu data, in the MC thread?

Honestly, I don't know how you guys get away with this shit sometimes.

Of course I read your post.  That's how I knew you were discounting a game you never played on the grounds of how it plays.  <3

In front of 3 other GT games or 3 other GT demos?  Does having only 20% new modeled cars make GT5 a demo now?
