RE6 finally making the top 20.
Who is pre-ordering LM Dark Moon?
Pokemon...Is that normal? I mean, it is kind of low, isn't?


Pokemon is very low. This site had it ending at 1.2 million preorders, and at 660,000 this far from release. This is going to sell pretty poorly in America at this rate.

Wow. I guess it was too early for a new pokemon in USA.



Proud to be the first cool Nintendo fan ever

Number ONE Zelda fan in the Universe

DKCTF didn't move consoles

Prediction: No Zelda HD for Wii U, quietly moved to the succesor

Predictions for Nintendo NX and Mobile

Personally, I think it's just that it's a DS game releasing over a year and a half into the 3DS's life. People were moving on a couple of weeks after Black and White. There is no real desire for any more DS games.

MS needs to add a pre-order bonus to Halo 4 if they want it to reach Halo: Reach's pre-orders


They need to do a lot more than that. All their trailers since the E3 reveal have been lame Halo Waypoint type vid docs, its not going to buid up hyppe and get millions of views.

not sure what you are all talking about because overall preorders are over 50% ahead of reach at the same time and we all know that they will start to advertise a hell out of it in few weeks with the forward unto dawn "movie" and stuff like that.

Halo: Reach X360 10 31,118 390,441

with reach, it started 8 weeks before release and preorders exploded, i expect microsoft to do it also like that this time at least for usa. i never saw reach advertisement in germany, let's see if it will change for halo 4.

Calm down, not everything is a dick measuring contest. 

to be fair it's sniper989 who decided to compare the two games.

He was saying how well it did by comparing it to Halo. He didn't try to imply that persona was going to outsell it, or try to troll anyone. Zane's comment had a slightly different tone.

Ya but isn't that what a "dick measuring contest" is. Sure he wasn't being a jerk about it like zanewane was. But he was trying to showboat the preorders by comparing it to a different big game. I do agree that he wasn't trying to imply persona will outsell halo, obviously, but there is a reason he compared it to halo 



I feel really bad for dishonored. It looks like it's gonna be a great game but not many people are preordering. I can't say much because I haven't either, but I will in the next couple weeks. I don't know if it will be able to reach the top 20 for both ps3 and 360, but the 360 might. Hopefully if it gets good reviews people will start buying it.
