Was gonna say maybe the 360 numbers are down to due the supposed hardware shortage, but Tales of Vesperia ain't even in the top 10 anymore :(

Well, maybe all the people with 360s bought ToV already and since there are no more 360s left there is no reason to pick up ToV?

People won't really buy a game if they don't have a console to play it on! I do hope sales increase onces MS gets supply back in stock in September but I guess its a missed opportunity.

However, ToV may have peaked already, who knows, we'll have to wait and see when stocks come back in!

Maybe they sold all the copies they had ready? I mean 110k or so isn't a bad number really. Everyone makes big noise when you hit 1mil+ but those aren't all the games. Lots are in the green with just 500k sold depending on how much it cost to make.

Afrika's first week numbers aren't so bad. I'm still amazed this is a Japanese exclusive. Seems everyone bar the DSL is down though, and even then the DSL is only up by 444 units. Mixed bag in the software section, too. Sony/Nintendo going 50/50.

Did Sony announce the PSP-3000 too early? Shortages finally hitting the 360? Will Wii Fit ever stop selling? Hmm.

These numbers probably take into account the shortages they've talked about. We'll see how they stack up next week. They should have new stock in by then to account for things.

Almost...

Holy ****, nearly a million copies of diamond sold in a week. Insane.

And is it not pretty much identical to the other DS versions minus some tweaks? :rofl:

Pokemon fans are nuts!

Actually I heard there's quite a few more differences in this version compared to the differences in the other "third game" generations. Don't know how true this is, the only time I've bought more then 1 version of Pokemon in the same generation was the first (and I bought all 3, and regret buying blue when I already had red and yellow).

    • This is exactly why I keep saying we are not ready for human free self-driving. These little "bugs" are may seem like random one-offs. There was also the Waymo that drove between police with drawn guns and the suspect they were pointing them at. From a software perspective it is easy to understand how those extremely rare situations may not have been programed for, but that is the point. If AI needs to be told to watch out for every possible contingency, then it can never be successful. There will always be the possibility of a first encounter that the AI needs to understand to avoid.

    • Recycle Bin has been broken for literal YEARS now. The setting to delete files older than 30 days from the bin which is on by default doesn't even work. I have files older than 4 months in it and they are just there still...
    • They’re really desperate to ingrain AI into society hoping to tug the heart strings of public to jump unto the boat of destruction to humanity’s individualism.
