Japanese Sales | Famitsu Collates Nintendo DS Top 100

11.12.2006

Japanese publication Famitsu has gathered together all of the Nintendo DS game sales so far and created a Top 100 sales chart highlighting the strongest games on the system. Sadly, some of these numbers will look strange to those who follow our weekly chart run-down since those are Media Create numbers and the two tracking companies' numbers differ quite drastically at times.

Whatever the case, enjoy the statistics below!

2.) New Super Mario Bros. (Nintendo) - 3,351,234
3.) Animal Crossing: Wild World (Nintendo) - 3,335,195

It's going to be shit and you jolly well know it.

Aw, Cooking Mama only got 51,712

Yes, those figures are just Japan, Grumbles.

Quite impressive for just one country!

It's shocking how in the Top 30 the only two companies that have any power against Nintendo are Square Enix and Bandai Namco!

Although Sega will have recently jumped in with Love & Berry, and Capcom is likely to do it as well with the follow-up to the Megaman EXE series.

Depending on the game, over 50,000 units for a Third Party offering is decent going. Over 100,000 is damn impressive (I'd reckon).

By now it will have been overtaken easily by Kirby! Smilie

And Flynnie, Sonic's just not popular in Japan anymore...None of the Sonic Advance games did well there either.

100.) Kanpeki Kanji (TDK Core) - 43,664

Where would that sales figure be in a PSP top 100?

Top 10 somewhere!! Smilie

Anyway those are extremely good sales for Diamond/Pearl 4th place and its been for about 2 months or less!

I see all these people insulting the Nintendo corporation because of the lack of mature content. Yet there is something about Nintendo (at least their games) that strikes a certain unadulterated feeling of joy!!! Pokemon Y - 1048-9263-5562
