I'd prefer if the it came out on the DS that way you have a second screen to utilize, even if it was for something as simple as a stats screen. I'd love a Secret of Mana for DS too, especially if it added full online Wi-Fi support.

Wow, Nintendo is just on fire in Japan! 22 of the 30 top selling games are DS games, and games made for a Nintendo console captured 26 of 30 spots. New Super Mario Bros has now sold well past 4 million units in Japan alone, and getting close to 10 million worldwide if it hasn't surpassed it already. Just wait until the Wii starts kicking it up a notch with game releases.

So you're thinking that it will reach 4x as many units sold but only 4x as much software sold? I think thats an underestimation. At 4x the hardware sold I would expect around 10x the software sold, if current buying trends stay the same.

Yes, I probably was low on the estimate software sales, and just shows how impressive the DS has been in terms of sales.

>> Worldwide +
>> DS Hardware: 26.82 million units
>> DS Software: 103.60 million units

All I can say is WOW! These would be great numbers for the life of a system, never mind just 2 years.
I'm thinking it'll reach 100+ million units and 400+ million software sales when it's finally discontinued.
Not bad for what was once called a "gimmicky" system.

Do you have friends over a lot? If so, I'd get either Rayman or Monkey Ball, because each of them has a ton of fun multiplayer minigames.

Nintendo Gaming / RE:Acclaim to rise again?

« on: July 21, 2005, 10:29:30 AM »

The rights to the Acclaim name is only worth $100,000?  That's just downright pathetic, when you consider in the business world there are brand names that exist that are worth billions of dollars. Just comes to show how poorly mismanaged this company was and its lack of brand recognition. Anybody got some spare pocket change to buy the Turok franchise?

I'm also scratching my head over Sega being considered most improved game company. The only thing that would justify this would be the Sega 2K Sports series and they don't even own it anymore!
