Kav Posted April 20, 2007 Posted April 20, 2007 Japan sure have rediscovered their love of Nintendo! All thanks to the DS really!
Goron_3 Posted April 20, 2007 Posted April 20, 2007 Shouldn't Phoenix Wright 4 be named 'Gyakuten Saiban 4'? Anyway, those PS3 sales we're absolutely awful. Wii had 10x more sales than it...that's pretty amazing considering the Wii has no really good games on it apart from Zelda.
Fierce_LiNk Posted April 20, 2007 Posted April 20, 2007 Pretty awesome sales for the Wii. Wii Play and Sports really are selling the system, even after this long. I wonder what'll happen when Big Brain Academy and other touch generation games make their way over there. Hmm, time to ramp up production, me thinks.
Dante Posted April 20, 2007 Author Posted April 20, 2007 Hmm, time to ramp up production, me thinks. Wait for golden week sales (29 - 5) Fierce Link.
Fierce_LiNk Posted April 20, 2007 Posted April 20, 2007 Wait for golden week sales (29 - 5) Fierce Link. Haha, damn. I thought golden week was the week before last, or something. I thought it had already come and gone. We'll see how it goes then. But, I think now's the right time for Nintendo to up their production, and to give definite release dates for their bigger franchises. They're more or less owning Japan, and they really can't just rely on sales of Wii Sports/Play, as they'll die down eventually.
