Last Month, Jeremy Parish from 1up.com says (in New Super Mario Bros. Wii Hands-On Impressions) What's the game about? Remember New Super Mario Bros.? Of course you do. Despite being released a full three years ago, the DS sidescroller remains a top-seller (it was the best-selling DS game in the U.S. last year, as a matter of fact), with cumulative sales somewhere in the neighborhood of 1...

13 Months Ago, EL33TONLINE says (in Japanese Sales Data: Media Create software sales for 16/6 – 22/6) There is no doubt that the PS3 will experience a drastic drop in sales from last week’s record 75 311 units. Early estimates place the figure at roughly 24 000 units which would mean the PS3 would plummet down the hardware chart behind the PSP, Wii and Nintendo DS but still be placed well ahead...

15 Months Ago, lisa@el33tonline.com (Lisa) from EL33TONLINE says (in Japanese Sales Data: Media Create software sales for 7/4 – 13/4) Nintendo’s Mario Kart Wii topped the Japanese software chart, selling an impressive 594 000 copies in its opening week. The title was released on the 10th of April so this figure accounts for just three days of sales. It will be interesting to see how many copies Mario Kart Wii sells in a full seven day period and only time will tell if it will continue to sell as well as Mario Kart DS has.

There is no doubt that Mario Kart Wii will cause a boost in the sales of Wii hardware, and I would wager that Nintendo’s Wii will beat the PSP to become the best-selling console in Japan this week. If we take into account that the PSP had just two titles in the top ten in comparison to the Wii having four, it looks even more likely that it will lose its crown this week to the Wi...
