Have you considered counseling? Seriously? Because you put way too much time, way too much effort, and way too much emotion into these forums.soundwave05 said:
And I'm being pretty much serious. If I had to single out a person on this board that needs help, it'd be you. You really seem consumed by this stuff to a health-degrading level.
what are you trying to say? pokemons are excellent games, never mind the milking just play the main series games.Tabris said:
and what's wrong with liking pokemon? you like Xenosaga ffs and call it and I quote "the best storyline in a videogame this generation"
if you are trying to say people that like pokemon have bad taste then ugh... nice try.

Uh, you seem to be the one who's blowing things out of proportions.
You know, sports fans can get pretty wild. I recall one group of people crying because their team didn't win. But for what? Will it benefit them in any way? No. It's just fun (if you don't let it get to you too much) to root for something I guess. If people can passionately root for their favorite sports teams, then I say it's OK for people to root their favorite system/company in sales. Yeah, it's 100000000x more nerdy than sports, but it's the same premise.

Two times over.
I'm sorry, but soundwave is an exception. I'm not even really putting him down. I really think he gets into it way too much. I'd even go so far as to say that his health has probably taken some hit because of it. I bet he even actively thinks about this stuff outside of this forum.Chris Michael said:
Seriously, have you seen how he sometimes freaks out and posts like 10 times in a single thread about "what Nintendo should do"? Long posts, too.
I dunno. He just strikes me as a person he seriously might need help. And if he's disabled or something and just doesn't have something better to do, then I guess I can understand.

Back on topic...
Though not terribly (remotely) surprising, Valhalla Knights' weak launch is pretty disappointing. Yeah, I know, PSP RPGs bombing left and right... but opening at #12 = ouch. It looked like a really high quality effort from MMV, so it's a shame.
Also, Rune Factory dropped quite low in its second week... but if it did about 20k, that's not bad at all (bringing it to 65k or so). Anyway, it's still on track for ~100, which has to be considered a positive result.
Nice Tingle sales, also. Like I said before, I think it'll be a great result if the game ends up selling just a bit less or even with Zelda: Minish Cap on the GBA (so 241k). We'll see how long it lasts.
Mario Basket is hanging on to consistent weekly sales REALLY well. 30k at this point is quite impressive. And what's more, it's just demolishing Mario Tennis for GBA -- Mario Basket now has a 139,075 lead over Mario Tennis: Power Tour.
And in case anyone's curious, Square Enix's DS average sales are now at 295,923.

Who publish Valhalla Knight ? SCE ?
It is a pity to hear that PSP's RPG game are not doing well. I have good memory of RPG on PSX and PS2, so I am quite surprised at this news. Anyone have any idea why this happen ?
I play some RPG on the go (Goldensun, M&L Superstar Saga), so I think RPG is a good fit for handheld.

well, its to be excused if you have the big fatty and one color, right?
right?
i did buy the gameboy link cable for that game though to trade. and one multiplayer game at school =p
Whatever they feel represents a diamond and a pearl. Probably white/clear for Diamond, and for Pearl they could go white, pink, or black. Judging by the cover Pokemon, I'm guessing they'll pull a "Ruby/Sapphire" (blue Latios is in Ruby, red Latias is in Sapphire) and use white for the Diamond card with the black legendary Pokemon, and black for the Pearl card with the white legendary Pokemon...salva said:
But that's all speculation, in any case.
I hate to see a top-notch title like Mario Tennis glossed over, but hey, if Mario Basket's sales mean that Square-Enix and Nintendo are encouraged by their first character crossover (SMRPG notwithstanding since none of the characters in there had been in previous Square games) in a not-so-mainstream Japanese gaming genre, we might just get a Nintendo/S-E Smash Bros. or Mushroom Kingdom Hearts yet.ethelred said:

I've actually preferred stuff outside the main series for various reasons (Pokemon Puzzle League, Pokemon Pinball, and the anime).
So, DS carts being reallocated to meet Pokemon demand? Scary. I'm sure it wouldn't have been a problem if the DS didn't have so many mega-sellers not called Pokemon.
apujanata said:
No, it's published by MMV (Marvelous Interactive). Their other portable RPGs include... Rune Factory, Innocent Life, Legend of the River King, Contact, Luminous Arc, etc.
Jiggy37 said:
I dunno about that... but yes, it's certainly true that I'm sure both Nintendo and Square Enix are pretty pleased with things so far. Especially since the game is showing no signs of slowing down yet.

Oh that Wii show, completely forgot about that. :/ Meh, got my hopes up.
What are the odds that Nintendo will announce new DS (maybe even GBA) games at the show?

Mario Basketball legs are impressive, Cooking Navi too. Tamagotchi 2 looks like its going down...it needs a xmas boost to match the first one.
Nice start for PSU, near Xenosaga 3 and Persona 3 numbers.
