err, yes they can.
here:

IMO the world is flat
IMO NAMBLA is a good idea
IMO People on the bus want to look at my wang

saying "you can't tell me I'm wrong because it's MY OPINION" is just something stupid people say.

Those aren't opinions though just because you preface them with 'imo'. They're just misguided statements. I mean you can say it's your opinion the world is flat, but it's not! Just like you can say Animal Crossing is good, but it's not.

port, port, port, port, port, wat, not real metal gear, port

Why do you people think ports = huge sales?

The simple fact is that people say 3rd party sales arent good on handhelds. 3rd parties is what is selling on PSP nowadays, the past month MH:portable and VP (ports) both sold 100k+, guess what? They are both thrid parties.

And even if this is media create topix, when you look at the US (uhoh) PSP has sold 8 million~ 3rd party games (near double what DS has sold even tho its been longer 4 months longer) which is incredible.

but comparing PSP a system out for 1 year~ to GBA who was out for 5~ years is complete joke :lol

Hey guys, sup?

Just to note, I wasn't being serious. I was hoping someone would figure it out - but I guess GAF is just that oblivious. :lol

Also, Error2k4, you were asking for it when you mocked Our The EVO: The Search for Eden. :D

It's not Nintendo's fault third parties can't ramp sales up on PSP with the exception of Capcom.

Capcom is no exception, MHP is an exception to how 3rd party sales are likely on the PSP though. Most of Capcom's games bomb

Actually it's port, full scale console level remake, full scale console level remake, original game, port collection, arcade port, original game, port.

Scarily though, it seems the ports tend to outperform original titles on PSP. :/

So did Tamagochi DS and Children of Mana. Neat!

And really, almost nothing sells on PSP nowadays. The fact that nearly half it's total software sales come from it's first 3-4 months on market is telling...

Gee, look who's bringing US sales into a JP sales thread again. ;)

Just refuting your deeply flawed notion that 3rd parties don't move serious units on Nintendo handhelds. Fact is they do and in Japan it's significantly more than PlayStation handhelds currently, even post Game Boy.

DS has effectively killed off the GBA in Japan, for it to achieve similar success in North America, it must phase out the GBA brand here.

Because in North America, people are still buying tons of GBAs, that's what's holding the DS back here, not the PSP (which is an entirely different market).

No, these aren't the real numbers people.

They are or they're not?

Anyway, good to see CoM still in the top 10 but still disappointing sales. Hopefully it has decent legs.
 
Fake or not, unless the real DS numbers are much, much lower, this makes the 14th non-consecutive week that DS outsold everything else combined.
 
MC numbers are up:

DSL 104,452
PS2 66,670
DS 32,105
PSP 31,848
GBASP 4,290
GBM 3,087
GC 1,318
Xbox360 1,039
GBA 131
Xbox 108

Just out of curiosity:

YTD 2005 DS (after the same amount of weeks): 429,545

YTD 2006 PSP: 484,474

Come on people, where are all the easter comments and pics???
 
As millions of Japanese get set to celebrate the all-important Easter season, their thoughts inevitably turn to the Nintendo DS.

:lol Seriously though, Nintendo must be loving spring time in Japan ... it's the most wonderful time of the year (outside of late December aka Easter 2).

Hmm, so is the large PS2 discrepancy due to Famitsu not counting the FFXII PS2 pack as hardware? That info could help out Bebpo. :)

Famitsu for 3/6 - 3/12

Which is not the matching week for this thread.

The ratio (weekly DS units)/(weekly PSP units) breaks a new record with 4.29. The previous record was 4.27 set in Dec last year.

Antihawk sucks. Hes getting close at guessing


Hardware...Fake....Real
DS Lite: 99,372....104,452
DS: 56,216.....32,105
PS2: 39,091.....66,670
PSP: 37,683....31,848
GBA SP: 5,271....4,290
GBM: 3,182.....3,087
GC: 1,387....1,318 (nice)
X360: 1,029....1,039 (very nice)
GBA: 215.....131 (this is where I noticed it was fake)
Xbox: 92.....108


So DS Lite shortages are ending? Nintendo is shipping at least 110,000 a week now. Also, since Nintendo can ship at least 50,000 DS units a wekk, looks like fat DS is now readily available.
