Even I can't believe it. The Wii will surpass Xbox 360 in North American sales next month if things keep going like this. Can Nintendo stay on top?

Wow. Hardware and software domination this week.

Now to start working on getting those Wiis in the hands of the less fortunate.

I think so. Its not like microsoft or sony are a threat to them lately.

I am happy the PSP is doing better. shame there's still so few good games for it.

IRC and Red Dragon especially! They deserve to get one NOW!

I hope Nintendo listens to them.

...and yet, Nintendo will continue to have their crap-tastic friends code system (confirmed). Why change when you don't have to?

Isn't that friend code thing only there because Nintendo doesn't want kids talking to/contacting peeps they don't know?

Re: April 2007 NPD sales numbers

friend code system is no different from username system, its just numbers instead of letters. its not a big deal. plenty of games let you play with people without knowing their friend code.

Re: April 2007 NPD sales numbers

A random series of 16(?)-digits is a little different than a username.

Re: April 2007 NPD sales numbers

Link please, I can't find similar numbers.

[DK]

Re: April 2007 NPD sales numbers

Yeah, the friend code is not the same as a username.

Last time I checked usernames weren't randomly assigned.

How does that have ANY relevence to the sales numbers?

Re: April 2007 NPD sales numbers

I don't mind the Wii friend codes. As long as you only have to add it once per person it's not a big hassle. The DS friend code system on the other hand is balls.

Re: April 2007 NPD sales numbers

also very interesting, the japanese software charts for last week:
http://www.gamespot.com/news/6170684...ewstop;title;9
the top 21 spots are all Wii and DS games.
the first non-nintendo system game on the list was Monster Hunter Freedom 2 for PSP at #22.

This is insane.

We have to wait a year however. It'll be on the decline, don't worry.
