Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 8 Comments
We know that Pokemon Sun and Pokemon Moon are off to a great start in Japan having sold nearly two million copies in just a few days. Unsurprisingly, they appear to be doing quite well in North America as well.
During its financial call today, GameStop said that Pokemon Sun and Pokemon Moon are the retailer’s best-performing games of 2016. Additionally, pre-orders were the highest for any title at GameStop in five years.

October 2016 NPD: Sales for Paper Mario: Color Splash, Disney Magical World 2, more
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Wii U | 32 Comments
Two Nintendo-published games debuted in the United States last month: Paper Mario: Color Splash and Disney Magical World 2. We now have sales data for both. Paper Mario’s new entry sold about 100,000 units while the 3DS game is estimated to have sold in the neighborhood of 10,000 copies.
Data is also in for other 3DS titles. Yo-kai Watch 2, which shipped in September, sold under 50,000 units. Dragon Quest VII also came out last month and unfortunately appears to have poor legs. It was outsold by the likes of Pokemon X/Y, Smash Bros., and Pokken Tournament at retail.
Lastly, we can say that Skylanders Imaginators sold 66,000 units while Just Dance 2017 moved under 30,000 copies.

October 2016 NPD: 3DS sees fifth straight month of year-on-year growth
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, New Nintendo 3DS, News | 0 comments
The October 2016 report is now fully available, but it’s pretty quiet on the Nintendo front. No Wii U or 3DS titles were among the top ten best-selling games of the month.
On the bright side, the 3DS itself saw another uptick in the United States. Analyst Sam Naji says the handheld saw its fifth straight month of year-on-year growth. Pokemon and Monster Hunter Generations are thought to have been two catalysts.
Naji said:
“The 3DS experienced its fifth straight month of year-on-year growth. Both unit sales and consumer spending for October grew 12 percent as average pricing was flat year on year. It is likely that continued consumer interest in the Pokémon franchise and Monster Hunter: Generations has driven this growth.”
NES Classic Edition sales on eBay happened once every 18 seconds on launch day
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 2 Comments
When a product becomes difficult to find – even for a short period – people turn to eBay. With the NES Classic Edition, the asking price naturally skyrocketed.
Polygon reports that NES Classic Edition sales on eBay last Friday took place once every 18 seconds. It’s tailed off just slightly since then, but sales are still happening once every minute and 23 seconds as of Tuesday. The average sale price has also been at $230 as opposed to Nintendo’s normal $60 asking price.
