Pokemon continues to dominate the charts.

japanese cant get enough of that pokemon. curse them and their kingdom hearts final mix!! mario party 4 is selling better than zelda:ww?

I think they are selling porno with MP.

That was new year week...What better party game to get then Mario Party to party all night with! That could explain MP's domanince...

I'm also surprised at MP beating out Zelda. Zelda only at 7th place? I think the figures here will be higher here IMO. But then again, Zelda has been out for about a month or so, I think....But the Japanese love their Pokemon. Will that happen here, heh

Good point.........I just got MP4 today.........me and my friends had a ball. :D


It is surprising to see MP4 beat Zelda in weekly sales ...............but in a month Zelda has nearly surpassed MP4 total sales. :D

I think Zelda was out for 23 days by that point. And it sold more in its first 23 days then OOT did in its first 23 days.

Over 3 million pokemon carts in japan only in less than a month! Ph33r the power!

Well, this is what I never got with number charts, depending on what charts you get a game may have sold more or less than expected. I mean take a look at this list from Famistu from the VERY Same Period and note the difference in sales for pretty much every game on the list that's on both. It's rather weird.

Yeah, Famitsu doesnt get all the stores. I think Media Create gets more. But unlike NPD, Famitsu doesnt even estimate the rest and add to what they know. At least I think they dont.
