NinjaKido on 26 March 2009

A few points to consider.


-Like badge said the franchise is heavily associated with Ninty not so with Sony
-The game was made for a handled , I can't imagine it being to enjoyable on a console.
- i'm assuming the game was released later on the PS2 and not simaltaneously released.
- Can't imagine it was too heavily marketed for the PS2 , I'm still kinda shocked to see pokemon on a non ninty platform.

That has to be a misprint.

The real game was Unlimited SaGa however, it seems like it somehow got duplicated which causes the sales chart pages to have problems.

If you go here - http://vgchartz.com/japweekly.php?date=37612&console=&maker=&disp=Japanese+Name&boxartz=1

you can see it looks fine, but on the front page it just copies the name of #1 into the spot for #2

 

I think that ends it eh ...

 

I couldn't get my head round the Pokemon on playstation thing.

If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy

Well nothings impossible , I wasn't thinking about how much Ninty valued pokemon but more about how much business sense it would make.
