If you have yet to have the pleasure of playing this game, then I truly feel sorry for you. This game simply ranks very high on the list of the best games ever made. I have sunk about 2 days worth of time into the online mode alone.
As per usual, various sources, whether through leaks or from companies jumping their E3 guns, have released a bunch of quite interesting news to whet our appetites for the E3 announcements that are surely to come within the next couple of days. Game Usagi has compiled these stories into a convenient hutch* for you so that you don’t have to go through the laborious task of searching out these random stories from the five corners of the internet (the internet has more corners than the world, obviously). So, here they are:
In May, Nintendo sold 251,794 Wii’s in Japan. This is compared to Sony’s 45,321 PS3’s. It’s nearly 5 Wii’s to 1 PS3. In April, the ratio was 4 to 1. Also, in overall sales of Wii vs. PS3 in Japan – the Wii has sold about 2.5x more than the PS3.
The DS is also outselling the PSP about 3 to 1.
All I have to say is: 🙂
UPDATE: GoNintendo doesn’t seem to think that it’ll ever come out for the Wii. *shrug*
Dueling Analogs has a great new comic up (click the picture to see it) regarding an excellent marketing strategy to get people to buy the PS3.
