Ah, damn. When I read the title before clicking, I said aloud "HALO 3."

Haha me too. Good to know i was wrong...

@alex

Yeah i kinda agree. The first generation Pokemon are awesome, the second was still great. But since Ruby/Sapphire every Pokemon they add (with a few exceptions of course) is fu***** ugly

I'm sure most people expected Halo 3. Pokemon went way under the radar to steal the win, but yes, as far as the strength of the franchise goes, Halo isn't anywhere near the same league as Pokemon.

@stats87, that's right. SSBB will be the best selling game this year (2008).


 Are you sure about that? I would expect that GTA4 would have at least as good a chance as SSMB to be the best selling game this year (unless taking each version separately).

I think GTA4 and Brawl will battle it out. Sure Brawl is popular but GTA VC was the best selling game last generation and this time around it's on two consoles while wii has the larger install base



Stats87 on 04 January 2008

I think GTA4 (combined PS3/360 sales, unless it gets delayed past April) and Wii Fit will sell more (unless of course it becomes super supply constrained)

But of the 3, I'd personally rather own Brawl.

Plus I said in the other thread Mario Kart would outsell Brawl lifetime. (because of its greater appeal to the casuals)

So when do they get the hint and finally make a real Pokemon console game? It's overdue.

Pokemon....it's just a handheld game. Maybe they could make a console game based around teh pokemon universe and actually do a good job....but  core-pokemon-gameplay pokemons really work best on handhelds 

 



Crusty VGchartz old timer who sporadically returns & posts. Let's debate nebulous shit and expand our perpectives. Or whatever.

 I guess I don't understand your logic on this.  Is it "just a handheld game" because it's always only been made for handhelds?  

 I can't see any reason why it wouldn't work great as a MMORPG for a console.  They have never even tried, and that's one massive pot of gold to be missing out on.
