If Monster Hunter became the best selling game on the 3DS in Japan, I'd be delighted to watch 3rd parties explain why their games don't sell on Nintendo systems.

It won't. Pokémon will.

Western third-parties can just point to BLOPS2 on the WiiU, which sold less than 1/3rd as much as the dogshit Vita COD.

Whether it's fair or not, that's all the execs at these publishers would have to see to not bother. It's not like Nintendo had much of a relationship with them to begin with.

Nintendo FTW today

pikmin 3 :,) so proud!

and monster continues to be a beast

Yokai Watch! Awesome, been curious about that one. Anything from Level 5 is worth a look.

Nice day for Pikmin!

Yokai Watch looks pretty nifty. I was hoping for more interest but maybe the actual numbers will be better.

EDF is doing nicely and Pikmin seems to be picking up some momentum. I wonder if it will sell any consoles.

Am I off-base, or is Dream Team doing kind of poorly for a game with Mario in it?
