Fire Emblem: Awakening leads the charge during this weeks Famitsu sales and easily claims the number one spot. You’ll notice that there’s nine Nintendo related games in the entire Japanese top ten. Clearly it’s going to have been a another good week for Nintendo 3DS hardware sales. Here’s the top ten games in Japan:
- [3DS] Fire Emblem: Awakening
- [3DS] Code of Princess
- [3DS] Monster Hunter 3G
- [PSP] 2nd Super Robot Wars Z: Saisei-hen
- [3DS] Super Mario 3D Land
- [3DS] Kid Icarus: Uprising
- [3DS] Kingdom Hearts 3D -Dream Drop Distance
- [3DS] Mario Kart 7
- [3DS] Cho-ricchi! Tamagotchi no Puchi Puchi Omisecchi
- [NDS] Detective Conan: Prelude from the Past
Why that don’t happen in the west?
Because if it did, then no one would be cool anymore…. :l
… who the people who buy 3ds games.
It was a stab at “cool” kids that play FPS, you know, the reason why Namco dicked us out of Tales of Hearts/Innocence/Xillia.
because of FPS
hahahaaha fps are the worst games ever. no soul. Nintendo make the best games! fuck sony and eggsbox
FPS can be cool and awesome. Saying it’s bad because it’s a different genre doesn’t make sense. I agree that Nintendo makes the best games, though.
well funningly enough i enjoyed shooters such as goldeneye n64 perfect dark and metroid prime trilogy but now it is a joke with COD AND BF… generic shooters.
FPS’s can be awesome like Bioshock, Borderlands, etc, if done right. It’s not good to group every game with FPS elements together like that. Counter Strike and seriously fun, and way better than any CoD or any other competitive multiplayer. I don’t know about Team Fortress though.
Team Fortress 2 is really fun! And Halo is fun too.
any one remember Lost Planet 2, that game was a beast!
The west plays different games.
Better question – what did the English language do to you that was so terrible it drove you to murdering it?
U r a cock n balls.
even better why is your pic a penis
Woah, that’s pretty amazing. Even more amazing that 8/10 are 3DS exclusives.
And that’s why people should buy one the games are too awesome
3DS > fail vita!!!!!!!!!
Waiting for KH3D + 3DS combo

Poor vita… looks like your death is coming faster than you think, Just you wait when pokemon black 2 and smash bros are launched…. GOOOOOODBYEEEEEEE
Goodbye Life when these games some out!!!
Goodbye life and hello empty wallet because Wii U may be out at that time also.

holy shit thats crazy!
you should show this to the sony president who said the 3ds is a toy… well mr Kaz…. looks LIKE RIIIIIDGE RAAAAAAAAAAAAAACER VITA WONT SUCCEEED BWHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!!!
Nice to see more third parties realising that nintendo is where the sales are at
lol when super smash broslaunches for 3ds psvita can buy the coffin becuase we all know smash bros titles sell 15m+ units guarenteed and if the online is good aswell 25m+ so lolgf vita you wil never sell so much with 1 title of you ever
HELL YEAAAAAAAAAH SONY CAN GO DO ONE. GAMING BELONGS TO NINTENDO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SO TRUE
nobody will argue with that.
I live on the moon,can i get it there? :P
if i would make a (japanese) hardware sales prediction based off history:
the 3DS will be on top for the umpteenth week and will be ahead of second place (likely the PS3) by a wide margin yet again, and the not-even-6-months-old vita will continue to push dismal numbers as if it’s on its last leg in japan
I want that pack of awakening so badly!!!
I predict in about in a year, PSVita will be discontinued, while 3DS and DS will still kick ass along with the Wii U.
I’m not going to bash on the Vita until the end of the year as the 3DS didn’t get a good start either.
3ds had a good start sales slowed down really badly. vita crashed before the gun was shot at the starting line loooool
That’s the truth!

I won’t bash the Vita since it does deserve a chance, but I can only blame Sony and their “fanboiz” for this reception or any other low sales for Sony games. Sony does a poor job at marketting, and the fanboys hype the games so much that Sony bites the bait and then the titles don’t perform well since those fanboys don’t buy the games.
that’s true, so called fan-boys… i call them drones.
I love how there are people bashing the Vita for it’s low sales. Remember when the Gamecube had low sales, too? Remember that the 3DS started off pretty bad as well? Remember, Nintendo also had rough times. I can agree to some people that Sony failed to market it properly, they did a crap job of it. But, really, do we all have to succumb to fanboyism?
its my nintendonews dude, whaf do you expect…. Sony has its own fanboys but they’re at there own site bashing Nintendo.
what’s funny is that most fantards only bash because they can only afford one console.
^this. I dont mind sony at all, it’s just they’re too damn expensive. Now microsoft’s xbox is what I despise. I have my personal biased reasons.
Oh, and I’ll get me a vita one day, when price drops
y is there a psp game listd?bcaus its not nintendo

Any news about Europe version?
But…DS sucks balls…
Japan is weird. Or ADD. Maybe both
Congrats for Nintendo. Guess those stories about Fire Emblem Awakening being a best seller were right after all.
