Forums - Sales - PAL Charts week 21 (2009). Pokemon Platinum, Punch-Out, Bionic Commando...

Xen on 26 May 2009

Bionic Commando PS3 is a victim of the exclusive X360 demo it has. Next time Capcom will know better... really, is it so hard to release a demo?

360 is a Software Monster.

 

Bionic Commando  and many more Games performed better, when they exclusiv to X Box 360 and not Multi.

Many recent games performed better on the PS3 than on the 360... your point?

Wow, big drop for RE5 ;_;

This is one of the cases where Nintendo should have delayed Punch-out!! in Europe for at least a month. As pointed out by BKK2, NES oddly wasn't all the rage in its time here, so both PO and Bionic Command are totally new IPs to us.

Releasing the game in the US and Japan first with tons of advertising and hyping it overseas would have had a much greater impact on sales. Still, it should develop some legs to lead it to at least 500k.

Well Punch Out was released on a friday, might have something to do with the low sales.

For Thee, my Lord, for Thee. Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, That our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command. So we shall flow a river forth to Thee And teeming with souls shall it ever be. In Nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritūs Sancti. -----The Boondock Saints

As were the top 4 games this week along with every other new release. The vast majority of games release on a Friday, so that isnt a valid excuse for not making the top 40.

Three exercise games in the UK top 10 and Punch-Out can't even break the top 40?

I don't know about you guys, but I'm concerned. I don't even want to think about what the charts will look like in a couple of years.
