Final Fantasy II 20th Anniversary Edition (PSP, Square Enix) - 20,000


Final fantasy overkil starting to have an impact on its sales?

Avoid Games Like the Plague, productivity++

When you see how little the game's change for this PSP release, you'll understand why. They've 'upgraded' the 2D graphics and that's about it Smilie Very cheap cash-ins...the GBA editions were much better value and FFIV's remake on DS this year will be best of all (also part of the 20th Anniversary Project...with more surprises to be revealed very soon apparently).

Great news, i'm glad it's doing so well. Hopefully the game will do well in other regions also. LS

I really hope the low-ish sales of Stock Trader Shun doesn't put Capcom off the idea of translating it...It's already enough that we've clearly missed out on Konami's Stock Trading Training game, but to miss out on a Phoenix-Wright style affair would be terrible!

I hope so too, I bet that games a good one, my brother could play that on his journies into the city in the mornings Smilie, he also likes PW humour so i would probally have to get it for him if they do release it in the U.S.. They would have to sell it there. LS

Those PS3 and Xbox 360 hardware sales are abysmal, let's not talk about the software either.


Mike Gee of iZINE said, "...The Verve, as he [Richard Ashcroft] promised, had become the greatest band in the world. Most of the critics agreed with him. Most paid due homage. The Verve were no longer the question mark or the clich�. They were the statement and the definition."

More domination from Nintendo. Odd though that they take nearly everything but that they lose 2 out 3 of the top spots to Sony.

The PS3 is going to need a big title though. I think we all expected the Wii to be the best selling system in Japan, but did anyone think the PS3 would be selling less than the PS2 and under 10k a week?

I'm surprised the PSP is still alive...I wonder if Sony will release a second one.
