Kirby Star Allies

Kirby Star Allies landed fourth in its first month on the NPD chart. There’s much more to the game’s placement, however.

Based on the latest data from NPD, Kirby Star Allies had the strongest debut month of sales in the U.S. in the history of the franchise. It experienced a 90 percent better debut month than Kirby Nightmare in Dreamland, which was the previous record holder.

Specific sales data for Kirby Star Allies has not been provided by the NPD or Nintendo.

Gal*Gun 2 made it to Europe on April 13. But in North America, the game officially launched today, and a bit of an odd situation has cropped up.

Those who are picking up physical copies of Gal*Gun 2 are reporting a misprint. Despite the games have nothing to do with each other, artwork from Wild Guns Reloaded is found inside Gal*Gun 2’s case. The two titles also come from different publishers – PQube and Natsume respectively – so this is a strange situation for sure.

We’ll reach out to PQube to see if they’re aware of the situation and will report back with any statement they provide, if any.
