I'm VERY interested to see the software sales this week. Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings DS sold 180,000 copies last Thursday, i.e. launch day.

FF12 RW has a bad control scheme. It deselects your unit everytime you issue a command to it, being the main culprit. So you have to keep reselecting again and again and again. Also the game is on the easy and simple side and rather slow.

For the love of good game design, I hope it flops. No one should have to put up with such a thing.
 
Because no MC data yet
does anyone want some Dengeki TOP 50 numbers?

Ironically, but Wii and DSL are 7.5:1 to Sony's offerings in the same categories. Wii threw one hell of a curveball into this war. We know it's coming weekly, but I'm still in awe when I see it.
 
In the past 2 weeks, the Wii has outsold the PS3's MONTHLY volume in the US and Japan combined.

These should be alarming figures for the reigning champ.

Not just them, but everyone that decided to back this horse. You know that they are looking at numbers like this in horror.

Nope, it's not bundled in Japan. That's also part of the reason why the Wii's tie ratio is lower in Japan.

Only by a little bit, though, since Wii Sports is at around 66% of attach rate with new hardware since launch...

Top 16 for Nintendo platforms this week, with the Wii really starting to show off its SW muscle (5 titles in Top 10 is pretty nice). Also nice to see that numbers 1&2 are 3rd party titles on DS.
 
Whoah! so the real numbers were even better than the ones posted by Hardknock for Nintendo. DS vs PSP and Wii vs PS3 ratios are quite ugly.
