Congratulations to Nintendo and the Nintendo 3DS entertainment console for the complete domination of the worldwide weekly charts. Nintendo gamers worldwide have spoken with their wallets for what they believe to be a supreme gaming experience like no other.

It has been proven yet again that hard work and AAA quality exclusive content pays the bills. All of the hard working ladies and gentlemen at Nintendo HQ must be proud of the results of their hard work and dedication. The momentum behind Nintendo has been very strong as of late and we hope to see the movement continue well into the future. As long as Nintendo continue to provide world class exclusive experiences, we as Nintendo supporters will continue to support Nintendo consoles.

It has been a long bumpy road for the Nintendo 3DS entertainment console to get to this point. Facing stiff competition in the handheld sector, but managed to pull through to an outstanding victory once again. Its good to see Nintendo running strong and maintaining healthy sales figures on the charts.

Nintendos competition did pretty good as well. Have a blessed day and happy gaming.

Rated E For Everyone

Can I have what your smoking?

CarlitoBrigante4416d ago

Without Japan 3DS would be at nr5

Instigator4415d ago

Hardly an argument, don't you think. It's like saying without Japan the X360 would wipe the floor with the PS3, but that wouldn't fly with you, would it?

KingOptimus1014415d ago

Jesus Christ what is wrong with you its like you praise nintendo as your God. Its like you have a nintendo STD and it just keeps burning of nintendo fanboyism.

dark-hollow4415d ago (Edited 4415d ago )

remember boys, only Sony as* kissing is allowed here.

KingOptimus1014415d ago

Remember dark-hollow, only nintendick riding is allowed.

Instigator4415d ago

It's going a little far for all camps, in my opinion. It only serves to damage the image of either fandom.

Wow top in both hardware and software.

torchic4416d ago

all round good numbers. with more software the Vita will only get stronger.

sikbeta4416d ago

Vita is going down no matter what, I said that from day one, but no! I was just a hater hating on the hated PSV :P

Sony better focus in PlayStation Suit that can reach to every tablet and smartphone owner out there rather than go for a dedicated gaming handheld

Dante1124415d ago

Looks like the Ps3 dominated the 360 again WW. Great sales all around though.

bothebo4415d ago

The Vita will only get better. I mean come on, yes it's struggling but it hasn't really got any third party support yet. I think once more developers develop for it, it will take off. Resistance will help and so will Little Big Planet.

SammyJ4415d ago

Well it will have to really because if it gets any worse....DAMN!

TheUnbiasedLion4415d ago

Best selling game was KH:3D and it's only out in japan. Pretty impressive.
Slightly dissapointed with the vita though.
360 took a bit of a dip
Ps3 mist consistent
3DS is great and kids and adults a like are lapping it up :)

Most important though is this is just speculation and guessing.

nevin14415d ago

A price drop did wonders for 3DS.

Microsoft once tried to nab LittleBigPlanet from Sony after a few drinks

It turns out that many moons ago, Microsoft once had its eye on the Sony published LittleBigPlanet series.

Microsoft had a good idea but fumbled it again.

Cacabunga10h ago(Edited 10h ago)

Project Spark idea was decent but they quickly gave up ..
LBP was wonderful

ApocalypseShadow1d 4h ago

Microsoft in a nutshell. Always tried to poach Sony employees, games, 3rd party games and devices like the depth camera that was turned into Kinect but was running on PS2 before Xbox 360. Wouldn't be surprised they wanted LBP. Just like they worked behind the scenes pushing the MLB to bring Sony's baseball game to Xbox instead of making their own.
https://www.playstationlife...

They didn't spend years trying to develop their own baseball game. They wanted Sony's game.

They're scum.

Zachmo1829h ago

Microsoft didn't force MLB on Xbox. MLB gave Sony 2 options either go multiplat or risk losing the license.

"However, Healey said Media Molecule wouldn't have felt right doing that, adding it would have been "morally corrupt"."

Major kudos to Media Molecule for being an upright studio with principles.

Tody_za11h ago(Edited 11h ago)

Great, more stories like this please. Show the last of the zombies holding the line what we've been saying for years: Microsoft is anti competition, anti industry and has no interest in making games at all.

But hey, at least there's an Xbox Games Showcase to look forward to, right?

Inverno10h ago

Well considering SONY just killed the series, LBP would've been dead by now either way. Though MM probably wouldn't exist by now either, so I'm glad they stayed with SONY, hopefully they don't get shut down any time soon or ever honestly.

Inverno8h ago

They shut down the servers, that's millions of user created levels gone. That and dead are pretty much the same, it's also been years since 3 and they cancelled HUB soooo.
