Does that make it the best selling Kirby game then?

Also, well deserved!



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

Looks like that 8 million sold Kinects announcement that Microsoft made is likely right on the money. (especially if those numbers they touted were shipped)



 How our favorite systems are just like humans and sometimes have issues finding their special someone...

Xbox 360 wants to KinectPS3 wants to Move!  Why are both systems having such relationship problems?  The reason is they both become so infactuated with desire while watching the Wii as it waggles on by. They simply want what they can't have.

Seems like US is the area of highest differentation at the moment - 360 and PS3 showing a fairly big gap.

Worldwide it's closer due to Japan and to a lesser extend EMEAA.

I wonder if 360 can maintain that level of gap in US while PS3 can maintain EMEAA/Japan lead?  If so they it's going to be closer again for HD consoles very soon.

Wii had a great run over the holidays and consolidated it's worldwide lead overall.  I wonder how it will trend in first quarter of this year though?

PSP waiting for PSP2, DS still going great even with the 3DS coming - Nintendo overall must feel pretty good about how they fared over holidays.


I wonder if the changes to PS3 In EMEAA are going to be off from them adjusting the numbers. I have a feeling they are over tracked over there but we will see  when shippments come in. I also think 360 has been undertracked because of the Kinect affect.  However I'm not desputing the numbers just questioning tell we get some shipment numbers.

DKCR already the best selling western developed game in Japan this generation, and it's actually tracking ahead of DKC2/3/64 going by Famistu numbers.  Amazing really, it's going to be a million seller and probably then some... lol, I can't help but remember when certain posters (who shall remain nameless) were saying it's the same (disappointing) story as GT5 and insisting I was trying to "make thing look better than they really are" when I compared DKCR's sales to the DK series historically. How's that crow taste boys? ;)

I remember those posters as well... lol



i have the opposite feeling. 360 been undertracked in usa (now its been updated) and overtracked in emeea. Not sure about ps3, possible overtracked in USA, looking at november npd...

They got you banned and it was so worth it, so they don't regret what they did.

lol.  I learned my lesson; next time don't actually tell the troll you'll be reporting it.  Just report it.
