So yea...Those numbers, cool...

JRPG JRPG JRPG!

 

[Pud]

I've never played dragon quest 1. Thats true. But it was told to me under my characteristics it would not be a JRPG. I never said that. I said genre grow to change over time. However, I don't see how DQ1 wouldn't fit under what I said was a JRPG. I was speaking about how FF1 is more like a D&D game than modern JRPG norms. How things have changed drastically in the series. I was assuming that DQ had changed as well. But if nothing has changed in the series then yes the original would fit in fine with modern JRPGS.

And again are you missing the fact that we got back on topic. But I guess you ahd to bring it up because your opinion is some how devine and needed to be stated even though lots of people said what you already said.

As for banning. If you ban people that say "non-game" don;t forget to ban the nintentards while your at it.

Your opinions are offensive to my eyes. The 'non-game' phenomena on this board is one of the weakest trolling attempts I've seen in a long time, almost as weak as the term "nintentards".

 

[Tempy]

I care not about your desire to deviate from this point you "pulled up" and now wish to disregard so easily when it was previously of most import. Only when it is convenient for you would you like to jump on this lifeboat and sail away? Nah. I'll be the anchor that holds you to your words.

Holy shit, that's beautiful man.

 

[ElFly]

Dragon Quest IS the JRPG genre. It created the genre, it defines the genre. Anyone who says otherwise is just ignorant.



Pokemon sells more than other jrpgs because it is a better game. It has a deep, long, yet simple single player mode, and a complex, fascinating multiplayer mode. When it was first released, it didn't sell that well, and only by word of mouth it keep selling and selling for months, until nintendo realized they had a goldmine in their hands.

Where the **** is Zelda? The Japanese charts are trying to match the stupidity of the UK ones nowadays. Seriously WTF?

 

[mre]

Having jumped to the last page of this thread, I shall now predict, using my stupefyingly amazorific powers of prediction, that LanceStern was once again trying to determine the success (or failure) of a particular video game based upon whether or not it achieved a totally arbitrary number of sales.

I shall also guess that game to be Zelda.

Not enough consoles. About 40-50% japanese Wii owners have Zelda, so it's not that bad. Just wait few weeks to see it get the sales it deserves.

The problem with these boards is after 10 years of getting destroyed nintendo fans have decided its time to be the biggets dicks ever as payback for all the shit sony fanboys gave them.

Again, nintendo fanboys are liek radical islam of gaming. If you say the slightest thing against them they freak out about how your trolling. Instead of wanting open discussion they want to ban anyone that says anything other than what they want to hear.

....

Does this forum have a report option?

Just go away.

Nintendo fans = radical islamists. OK, now where are the mods when you need them? WHO'S ruining the forums, now? You're offending a lot more than "nintentards" as you put it.

 

[kisakiproject]

Point taken. I apologize. I got way to caried away after people bringing up the JRPG discussion after it settled down and we got back on topic.

Have a nice holiday sir.

On topic: can't wait to see if PS3/360 sales. Blue Dragon still sold pretty well, wonder if it did much for hardware.

In all my years of speaking English, I've never been able to find the words to express my feelings for nintendo fanboys! This is....

...not how I'd do it at all!

Why thank you, appreciator of English. ;-)

[Andy787]

Has Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops come out in Japan yet? Did it bomb already? Also, has Blue Dragon already died?

I hoped it would keep pace. They had some nice games out this week.

 

[davepoobond]

that's a high PSP number...

but is there a christmas sort of thing happening in Japan?

 

[kisakiproject]

Pie charts please.

PS3 and WII LTD please. PS3 is what 300k and Wii is 545k?

360s is 230,580.

IS DS past 13 million?

 

[OmegaRed]

I guess Sony wasn't lying when they said their production issues were fixed. Nice sales for the Wii.

[flipping_heck]

Nothing really interesting i suppose, PSP sales went up quite a bit while DS just continues to dominate.

Pretty steady and healthy PS3 and Wii sales

It's over bitches.

 

[Yamauchi]

Wii shipment is a little bigger than I expected, but I hope Nintendo can ship about 300k over the next two weeks since they're going to be huge.

 

[enishi]

but is there a christmas sort of thing happening in Japan?

I don't think so. Last year for the same week, PSP went up over 90k when there was no major title released (although it was 3rd week of Monster Hunter). It has Winning Eleven 10 this year...

And I think recall of wrist-strap hurts Wii shipment? Or Nintendo has logistic problem again?

 

[sprsk]

Looks like the ps3\wii battle is going to be a fun one. Nintendo again has been undershipping here. Couldn't find a DS or a Wii if you looked all day.

In other news, You can find controllers!

Damn. PS3 is doing much better than I thought it would.

DS is ****ing insane, as usual. Also the Wii's numbers are great; I'm guessing it's still having shipment issues but they're definitely better this week.

I expect the 360 to stay above 10,000/week for the rest of 2006

Humm, either PS3 is picking up momentum or Wii is severly being undershipped. More likely the latter. DSL hasnt stopped at all. 360 hasnt slipped too badly off. PSP doing better than usual. PS2, while up on week to week sales, is probably going to go off the radar by February 2007. I still wonder, who's picking up those 3 Xbox's every week? :lol

 

[Stealth]

Wow, PS3 numbers are almost as high as launch. Not too shabby to 360 either.
