Zelda at 11? Pff idiots. Still, I can't freaking wait for Mother, it looks hot.

[Twilight]

Well, Mother 3 has been in that list for like 10 years so I´m really not that suprised...

Good to see Gyakuten Saiban 4 there, though. :) Can´t wait for it. Hopefully Ace Attorney performs well enough in Europe because it really deserves all the attention.

[skarmachild]

Famitsu have really bad taste in games, not due to the charts but due to the top 50.

Zelda at no. 50? Pokemon no. 51? Final Fantasy 7 no. 1?

Don't think so.

Don't think so.
It´s wrong to blame Famitsu because it was readers´ top 50, not Famitsu´s staff. They listed what readers wanted.

(PS. FFX was no. 1)

Ah, my bad. Sorry. But okay then - Final Fantasy X?! I'm shocked.

[Nintendork]

Man I can't beleive Capcom dropped Revolution.. this thing by the Deadly Silence team better be good.

[faz99]

I wish that mother that was being made for the 64DD was made, it looked amazing. I wonder what it was shaping up to be like.

[Fierce_LiNk]

Come again? I'm confused, care to explain?

[Tellyn]

Do you mean they dropped Resi 5?

[ShadowV7]

Well I'm shocked that TP is that low

[Cubechris]

Mother 3 has been in and out of that chart for nearly a decade, a special edition GBA Micro is being bundled with it to celebrate its upcoming release.

[Owen]

Well I'm shocked that TP is that low

mmmm. I'm not sure if the delays are doing it any favours (game-wise yes) but popularity i'm not sure. You see it will sell by the bucket load don't get me wrong, but i reckon there are alot of people (like me) who have tried their best just to forget about it for now as it's not out till October time.

Don't you worry, it will climb the charts nearer the time.

Saying that (and contridicting myself) Resident Evil 5 is quite a way off as well so perhaps they are more interested in the new announced games and close releases?

Otherwise i have no-idea. :)

[The fish]

Capcom have said pretty much bugger all in regards to the Revolution. After 4 did so well, I expect they will release it on the Rev. Wait 'till E3, thats what I say.

[Jordan]

19. (18/15) Gyakuten Saiban 4 NDS Capcom


Hell yeah! :D

[Stocka]

Damm right!
Hope we see it confirmed for US/EU and revealed at E3, its more likely than not.

[Sarka]

What do all the numbers mean? the amount of peopel excited or something? I would of thought New Super Mario Bros would be higher up with the release being so close, when is the release in JPN for it?

[Kurtle Squad]

People have just lost interest in Zelda cos it's been so long. After E3 however, I reckon it'll do far better, then better and better as the release nears (though then it''l have to contend with Revo games...hmmmm)
