I don't know why Turkish wants to start doing this thread. Noctis does it every week.

That and it has also cleared 60-80% of its stock. 60-80%! So the situation for DQX is not as grim as it looks.

All this means is retailers had a good sense of what this would sell. I really doubt SE only wanted to ship 42-55k.

Damn, a PS2 game in Famitsu's top 30. Surely this must be a longevity record. I mean, PS4 is comig this year, lol.

There were a discussion in Gaf as to what game was released most late, and I didn't know what they where talking about. Apparently it's a GB game, I'll try to look for it. But yeah, that's crazy.

Turkish is right, as he posted first, but I reckon that there is a gentleman pact that everyone respects as to who should start these threads. Since the days Shin created the threads and now you. Even at the beginning of the year when we waited for so long, when I found them I first posted in your wall and waited for an hour.

I really don't know what's the big deal, he is being ridiculous.

INB4, You can see 2 or 3 threads before but then everybody started voting who will make the thread so their won't be any duplicate threads and Acevil won and with Acevil being not as active as he used to because of being busy. He asked me to do the weekly threads so since then I am making the thread every week.

Oh yeah, I forgot about Acevil. But, the thing remains, and people respect those pacts. Turkish is being rather silly.

Edit: Here, shamelessly taken from this post from user road from gaf.

Last Game Boy family game to appear in the Famitsu Top 30:

2002-11-11 27 [NGB] Pokémon Crystal Version (Nintendo) {2000-12-14} - 4,349 / 1,825,148

4953 days or 13 years, 6 months, 22 days. But I'm not sure it counts since Pokémon Crystal is a Game Boy Color exclusive game, and that's only 4 years and 22 days after that system was released.

The last release compatible with the original Game Boy to appear in the top 30:

2002-08-19 29 [NGB] One Piece: Maboroshi no Grand Line Boukenki! (Banpresto) {2002-06-28} - 5,437 / 150,481

4869 days or 13 years, 3 months, 30 days.

Which beats:

2013-03-25 15 [PS2] Final Fantasy XI: Seekers of Adoulin (Square Enix) {2013-03-27} - 11,531 / 11,531

4770 days or 13 years, 22 days.

Inb4 oh a Nintendo fan down playing a feat from Sony, I found the information very interesting, and think that it's worth sharing.

I'm voting for Noctis to keep making these threads!

I'm on Twitter @DanneSandin!

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.
