Wow not even Pokémon XY? :0
I know! That was my first reaction too.
I haven’t even heard of 19.
That game sold platinum ( 20 000 ) copies in Finland in a few months. It’s quite popular here.
Is there any market where Nintendo’s first party games don’t get smashed?
To be perfectly honest, yes, there are. They’re back in 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, and 2011, as well as further back in the years.
You know where else there is a market? In the future, starting May 30th. I hope you’ll be ready.
That does not answer the question, is nintendo dominating anywhere now?
Cool, but never heard of it.
..and it could sell even a lot more for younger audience watching Pokemon cartoons if Nintendo just starts translate some of their games to native languages. =)
Sorry i just woke up so i misreaded a little but truth is that Sly Cooper is well known in Scandinavia because it is fully translated to local language like big part of Playstation games. Nintendo exclusive games are always in english language so they don’t sell as well in here.
What a shame… that you don’t know what 19 is. Fuck the Fifa games.
Like I’ve said countless of times…
Xbot Zealots…
did you even look at the list?
either way, you make yourself look retarded.
stop posting, your posts makes me sad.
by the way, you give one hell of a bad impression of the nintendo community.
Of course I looked at the list and I live in Scandinavia, I don’t need to explain myself…
Then stop reading the comments?
lol failtendo at their best
Fake ratings, so misinformed pest that trolls for the wrong reason.
I’m ashamed of my people. Play better games dammit!
wow, starcraft 2? the expansion Heart of the Swarm is from last year, isn’t it?
these guys r creepy but cute @ same time!!!!! :)
Omg why is Lego Marvel Superheros still here???
OMG I’m so sick of seeing lego marvel superheroes. It’s a stupid generic lego game only with branded characters. Where the hell is ZELDA?!?!? ZELDA!!??!?!?!?!!
You bite your tongue. Lego Marvel was one of the best games in the series.
IDK!!!
i guess nintendo must make a shooter like golden eye in the past… ouh… that was rare.
no serious nintendo should get another studio to make shooter, that the people want to sell some wii u’s
yes, I agree.Although I’m not a huge fan of shooters ,instead of Doom series, hehe, fps seems to be the favourite genre of the US and is popular around the world as well, so Nintendo could worry about it and make a shooter game to raise the sales, but I think they will not do this =s
Why 2013? Shouldn’t it be 2014?
Brain dead consumers
Lemme guess you Nintendo fanboys are gonna say the Nordic market aren’t true gamers as well, just like you always say with the UK gaming market; just because you don’t see any Nintendo games on the list.
The Nordic Market are not true gamers.
The Nordic Market are not true gamers…
You both aren’t true gamers.
I just gave him what he asked for.
The Nordic Market are not true gamers! Masterman280, you are not a true gamer, either.
The only actual good games on this list is GTA V and Far Cry 3. What the hell is FIFA doing there? Come to think of it… why the hell is FIFA ALWAYS up there? Who plays FIFA that much???
The UK is full of violent primitive soccer huligans…
For me it is bigger surprise how Last of Us sold more than NHL? Atleast in Finland usually hockey games sells like hot cakes in every platform.
Do you know how Narcissistic Europeans are for anything European related?! They cream their shorts whenever they see their football players and bash on things that use similar reference. Like American “Football”, no bueno for Europeans. :)
No not me at least…just wondering why its last year and not this year. But you said it, not me…Oh and Jaded Drybones and Nintendo commander did too.
I couldn’t help it!! He set the ball. I had to spike!
Omg black ops 2 on the 10 place. Even its 2 years old. Its not nintendo’s fault why they arent in the list. Its the gamer. Only FPS games or other genre.
Nintendo in eastern southern and northern Europe practically doesn’t exits.
they should actually sell in ALLLLLL Europe……like Microsoft and sony…..
every gamer plays what he likes.
nintendo do not listen to the market, thats why there is no nintendo game on the list.
when i wanna wath a horror movie, i dont go to the theater and watch a love movie, because there is no horror movie at the moment.
listen to the consumer, even apple does that and make bigger iphones.
they are some titles which were release on Wii/Wii U so there is a chance the Wii/Wii U sales contribute to some of these titles.
Yeah like 0.01% of the sales.
See you aren’t a gamer, don’t know shit about Nintendo. Not like anyone wants you playing it or playing with you.
can’t comment on it since I don’t have the data. I will think 1% will be closer to the reality. Again it an estimate.
There’s only one exclusive up there, don’t think its really a reason to get emotional either way.
Nintendrones lose the war once again….
Lol.
War? What war?
