Nintendo anyone? Thats seriously what I though seeing those figures. As far as hardware goes, their hardware literally doubles sonys and microsofts combined. Along with top four software. PS2 and GBA interest me though, the gen that wouldnt die.



Looks like Japan invaded Canada! Good luck for the Sony PR...



Now Loading... Please Wait!

Actually whats interesting is the PSP, somehow everyone at my school has one or wants one and I am one of the few who has a DS



Keyword being school, where insecure teens spend their days

Two of those DS's belong to my girlfriend and I. And DAMN was it hard to find them! The Entire GTA was sold out of DS's almost all month. We were finally able to get some when shipments came in around April 22nd. And since then they just keep coming. Now most stores have them in stock(There were 22 of them in the Burlington Future Shop!). It really looks like Nintendo was waiting till May to up shipments. So May numbers are going to be ludicrously higher.



I'm a mod, come to me if there's mod'n to do. 

Chrizum is the best thing to happen to the internet, Period.

Serves me right for challenging his sales predictions!

Bet with dsisister44: Red Steel 2 will sell 1 million within it's first 365 days of sales.
