Is Star Wars Pinball coming to the 3DS? PEGI, a ratings board in Europe, certainly seems to think so. An entry for the title was added to PEGI’s database earlier this month.

Note that this is unlikely to be a mix up with the Wii U version – which came out a couple of weeks ago – as there are separate ratings for Wii U and 3DS. The Wii U game received classification last month whereas the 3DS version was rated on July 11.

Pikmin 3’s first week Japanese sales are in. How do they stack up to the previous games in the series? Let’s take a look:

(2001) Pikmin – First week: 90,000 (54.9%) | Total sales: 549,000
(2004) Pikmin 2 – First week: 160,000 (48.4%) | Total sales: 484,000
(2013) Pikmin 3 – First week: 92,720 (48.45%)

One important point to note here is that Pikmin 3’s sales were accounted for over a two day period, whereas Pikmin 2 saw four days of sales. We also have to take into account that there aren’t a whole lot of Wii U units out in consumers’ hands just yet.
