Fozzie_bear 28 Apr '05 08:38:32	Is that nintendogs giving the ds a big boost then? Seems to be a lot of excitement about it - but isn't it just a tamogatchi? or a version of those crappy Catz and Dogz screensaver things for pc? Meh, says i. send message \| log in to reply!
lost_soul 28 Apr '05 08:39:14	Looks like Nintendogs is pushing sales of the DS up quite a bit. Can't see the appeal of the game, myself. send message \| log in to reply!
Tiger_Walts 28 Apr '05 08:40:45	So Nintendogs should really be at number 2 then? The only difference between them is the puppies you start with. send message \| log in to reply!
Loki 28 Apr '05 08:42:59	Naruto + 2 New colours also helps. Believe it or not the Candy Pink colour was actully the hardest to pre-order for supposedly. send message \| log in to reply!

Loki 28 Apr '05 08:54:14	Not every game is set for the whole gaming audience so generally a lot of people won't be interested in the product. Although you have to admit that it will essentially be ushering in a brand new audience, which in the long run can only be good for the gaming industry.

IronGiant 28 Apr '05 10:57:15	Yup he's jumped on your bandwagon for sure ;) though what i find bloody annoying is his habit of capitalizing all the time, as if we can't read normal text and he took time to write the NINTENDOGS total for us too just in case anyone can't add up. In short STOP USING CAPITALS, NO NEED TO SHOUT. send message \| log in to reply!
Loki 28 Apr '05 11:20:36	For the record I didn't go off on a tangent yelling and screaming. The way you perceive it (CAPS) is different to the way I do, I use it to put an emphasis on interesting developments, because the Fact is that the Japanese market for several years has had a lack of new IP�s selling at such a high scale as already established franchises.

andrewfromdoncaster 28 Apr '05 12:37:01	Its not stealing my thunder as such. Its just i used to post a new thread every week from the start of the year, but then i thought i'd just put them all into one. If you get any more then just put them in my thread - it's meant to be for anyone to post. It keeps the place tidy and allows us to see the trends etc... send message \| log in to reply!
