September NPD: we can live with bronze

Normally, we'd be unhappy with third place in the NPD sales round-up, but just look at the sales last month! It seems like everyone bought something, so we really can't complain. We can afford to be magnanimous about it; after all, we'll be back on top soon enough.

All jokes aside, it is interesting to note that sales of the Nintendo systems didn't really drop -- rather, Xbox 360 sales simply increased, thanks to the incredible power of Halo 3. No matter what happens with the rest of the industry, Nintendo is looking more and more like a rock in the volatile market.
  • Microsoft Xbox 360: 527,800
  • Nintendo Wii: 501,000
  • Nintendo DS: 495,800
  • Sony PlayStation 2: 215,000
  • Sony PSP: 284,500
  • Sony PlayStation 3: 119,400
Which two DS games slid into the top ten last month? Hit the break to find out.

DS releases for the week of September 10th

This is such a good week for releases that we're not sure if we'd rather be here at home or over in Europe, where DS owners can get a taste of Tingle this week! Not that we're displeased with the array of titles available anywhere, frankly. If only every week could be this week.

Except then we would be poor, and would require a very large cardboard-box-house in which to store our massive DS collection. Every rainstorm would see us huddled under a garbage bag in a futile effort to protect our babies. It's not a pretty picture.
  • Drawn to Life
  • Jam Sessions
  • Spelling Challenges and More!
  • Zoey 101: Field Trip Fiasco
Travel past the break to see what's out in the rest of the world this week.

DS releases for the week of September 3rd


Looks like we've only got two this week, fan folks -- including one that was delayed from last week. Slim pickings for a short week (for those of us in the U.S., at least), but hey ... something is usually better than nothing.
  • Garfield's Nightmare
  • Worms 2: Open Warfare
For a glimpse at releases in the rest of the globe, check out the lists after the break.

Happy Birthday Mario!

September 13 is the 'birthday' of everyone's favorite plumber, and Nintendo's not letting September pass without a little recognition. Two new DS games this month feature Mario and company: the highly anticipated Mario Hoops 3 on 3 and the offbeat Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis. Salut! And many happy returns.

Mario Hoops is scheduled for release next week, and March of the Minis follows two weeks later. If only every month could be September.
