  1. considering darksiders 2 is multiplat on hugely installed 6 year old consoles.

    the 3ds takes the number 1 spot and the cake and just simply walks away with it .

    call me on 0800-boobless when the ps vita gets a a game in US charts .

    probably when that watered down underpants version of COD Arrives.

    1. indeed. i like the game. i like the graphics they are better and more colorfull than the wii version. and i like picking it up once or twice a day to do some coin rushing.

      i am currently on 435K . land on top of the flag pole with the gold racoon suit to double your coint count mofo!!!!!!!

  2. Now these are the numbers I’ve been waitin to see. North American sales are lookin great for Nintendo’s handhelds and Darksiders 2 seems pretty promising. Definitely solidifies my purchases

        1. Deserves waaaaay more than 7, certainly a ton better than Mediocre Dogs, its release date partner, which got 9’s, although the sales show whos the real deal.

          Its got some odd animations, like rolling a boulder and when you shoot your gun in the air, you sort of slowmo float, which killed me a couple of times when i wanted to use a ghost grab, but you dont loose health from pitfalls so its ok. Also had an odd glitch where i walked through the door and nothing was there xD, just empty fields, and the game frozen on me once, but its got an autosave so you dont loose any data or waste any time spend doing anything

          Other than that, and it has very fun combat, great level design, not to mention beautiful, AMAZING soundtrack, up their with Kid Icarus Uprising’s soundtrack, relatively good voice acting, although Deaths is awesome, and with about 50+ hours of replay value from arena modes, side missions, and a new game plus that has some unique weapons and items its definitley worth the money

          9.5/10

          1. oh sweet!!! this game sounds amazing , cheers !!!! .

            i understand they are fixing the bugs for the wiiu version !!!
            so that may be awesome :) . cheers now i have a wiiu game (port or no port) to really look forward to !!!

            1. I honestly might buy this game again, if the WiiU version is any better. Plus, because you can only set 4 quick commands, you have to interupt the game alot, but if they put all the on the screen, that would be awesome, make combat easier too

  5. It’s all good for Nintendo. Two of the 3DS games in the 1st and 2nd position this month and the #1 game will be on the Wii U at launch. I’m definitely picking it up. Leave luck to heaven.

  6. Nice. Looks like those Nintendo 3DS sales are doin well. Still surprises me that a football game has made it up there in the top 5… Huh i wonder how Vita’s doing?

  7. Yet the trolls will argue to the end of time “no one is still playing Arkham city [insert more b*tch and moan nonsense here]”
