SONY and Microsoft have both announced retrenchment, we haven't hear anything from Nintendo yet.
As much as we love to discuss hardware sales,
it seems like software is where companies make money.

(Pls note that i have doubt on the website sales tracking method.... but well.....)

Anyone surprised by the list? Why?


Added on January 23, 2009, 2:59 pmI myself is surprised, and slightly worry about the state of the industry.
You can see that Nintendo totally owned the chart,
and rest assure this is totally bad to consumer.

Anyone remember how Nintendo mistreat 3rd party developer in the 80s/90s? Nothing good could come out of a monopolist.

Wii FTW, but the domination is too obvious,
way too unhealthy for competition.

Oh, get a Wii la,
i owned 1 since launch and never regret a bit. (But bypass region lock is a pain)

Mmm.....

Microsoft has been trying to lure Mass-Market crowd for a while,
i hope they could take a good slice of the market,
just to balance the Nintendo domination....

I am quite surprise there is no Ubisoft games also....

They have a very good 2008 financial years,
so where did they earn their money from?????

Out of all the non-Nintendo Wii games only GH:WT breaks into top 25 (I don't consider the Olympic games since it's selling because of Nintendo's mascot). It's a worrying trend for big publishers to produce games for the Wii.

Mmm.... it is ok for me,
not much difference from 360.

The only Wii firmware update that makes me cry,
is the one that disable my Freeloader.

Come on, during PS and PS2 they had a similar if not more domination.

They fxxked-up real hard with PS3 and now they were left behind.

Bro, at least during the PS2 era,
Nintendo is still owning the handheld market,
now SONY is losing everything, including their pants
