Quote:I think you're wrong about some of those games not being for gamers. Brain Training is, despite what it seems on the surface, a genuinely fun game, as is Animal Crossing. And this is coming from someone who's been playing videogames since the early 90's.
And some gamers enjoy Sim and Tycoon games. Just because they are designed for casual gamers does not mean that they cannot be fun for hardcore gamers too, sometimes... I like SimCity, it's a good game...
Quote:It's somewhere between 1 million and 1.5 million at the moment. And probably about the same in Europe. I was speaking specifically of Japan though. If we bring the US into the equation then NSMB is soundly beaten by Super Mario 64's 5+ million sales.
It is kind of funny to be talking about Japanese sales and then give a list of upcoming US titles as 'upcoming games', though... :)
