Definitely Zelda will be million seller on DS. After years of decline, the Zelda series has resurrected a little bit.

Nope. I just looked again; definitely only one... Maybe you should doublecheck?

Selling another ~50k this week means I'm starting to think it won't see Yoshi's face and will actually go all the way to a million. Fantastic turnaround here.

Thats a respectable 2nd week for DQ:S, especially considering the fact that it sold through its initial shipment, go Squeenix! :)

Also, decent first week for Power Pro Baseball for Wii, considering it only managed 20k first day, PH is still selling too, awesome.

Nintendo has two major internal divisions within its Kyoto headquarters:

Entertainment Analysis and Development (EAD), 5 divisions:
EAD 1 - Hideki Konno (Nintendogs, Mario Kart DS)
EAD 2 - Katsuya Eguchi (Animal Crossing Wild World, Wii Sports, Wii Play)
EAD 3 - Eiji Aonuma (Zelda: Twilight Princess, Zelda: Phantom Hourglass)
EAD 4 - Hiroyuki Kimura (Yoshi Touch & Go, New Super Mario Bros., Big Brain Academy)
EAD 5 - Takao Shimizu (Donkey Kong Jungle Beat, Super Mario Galaxy)

Software Planning and Development (SPD), 4 divisions:
SPD 1 - Yoshio Sakamoto (Metroid Fusion, Rhythm Tengoku, WarioWare Smooth Moves)
SPD 2 - Hitoshi Yamagami (Dr. Mario, Super Princess Peach, Tetris DS)
SPD 3 - Kensuke Tanabe (co-developments with other internal teams and 3rd parties, e.g. Metroid Prime, Battalion Wars)
SPD 4 - Shinya Takakashi (Brain Training, English Training, Kanji Training, Band Bros.)

However, there is some inter-changeability with these teams, with staff forming new teams for specific projects.

Adult Face Training is co-developed by Intelligent Systems, and comes with a camera, it's not out yet, due for release next week, Aug 2nd:

I thought SPD is just Intelligent systems.
I thought Internal development was just:-
EAD
EAD Tokyo (Jungle Beat, SMG)
IS
HAL Labs

and a bunch of wholly owned studios. So I am wrong.

I just checked now : Power Pro for Wii sold better than any other games appeared on GC and it's the best result for this franchise on a Nintendo system since year 2000 (Power Pro Baseball 2001 for N64 sold less than 40k, older games were always over 100k)

Consideration:
maybe 3rd party games are starting to sell good (and i wrote "good", not "well"...) on Wii

well the wii userbase is pretty close to the size of the ENTIRE Gamecube base within months, so its not surprising that it sold similarly. Its just ****ing amazing how Nintendo could go from a total relative failure in the Cube to an unprecedented sales success in the Wii. The damn thing makes the Ps2 look like a slow seller.

Actually, I saw plenty of them in every goddamn GameStop and Play Point in Milan.
Mediaworld has also shitloads of Point Cards.
Only thing supply constrained these days was Elite Beat Agents DS.

The divide between the two versions of Pro Baseball should decrease each year as the Wii continues to settle in and the PS2 continues to decline.

Maybe, but where I live you can find DQ everywhere. It's not supply constrained around here, but so aren't Wii or DS either.

Wow, surprises all around this week (at least for me)

+ DQS with a very respectable second week, if not awesome 2nd week
+ Zelda Phantom Hourglass (while it looks like it could succumb to a peak) still selling awesome.
+ Jikkyo Pro for the Wii debuting respectable. And what do you know, the PS2/Wii ratio is almost 8:2.

Tridux? DQM:Joker had severe shortages off and on for a few weeks, too. Basically, Square-Enix should take whatever they think their initial orders should be for a game on a Nintendo platform and add 50%.
Click to expand...

Are you sure 50% is enough ? DQ:S has increased from 250K to 350K (almost 50% increase), but it has been proven that it is still not enough.

The S-E's supply problem seems to be more a question of underestimating the sales of their games in Nintendo platafforms rather than physical production.

Everytime I think "That's the one for me" I realize that I won't think that in x amount of time, so I just continue with no avatar. Thanks for thinking about me, though. ;)
