Pokemon Black 2 and Pokemon White 2 were high up on the October 2012 NPD charts. Black 2 secured the #3 spot while White 2 landed at #5. Together, the two versions sold 865,000 copies in the US last month.

How does that stack up to the original games? Black/White moved over two million copies in less than two weeks.

Not sure quite what it’s about, but Nintendo has told everyone that its 3DS eShop, the DSiWare Shop, and the Wii Shop Channel will be down for maintenance tomorrow, Tuesday, November 6th. Some people are saying that this could have something to do with the Wii U launch– perhaps some implementation of the “Nintendo Network ID” we’ve heard to much about– but I’m guessing that it’ll set some things up being the scenes that we’ll hear more about properly a week or two from now.

Don’t get too excited just yet!
