Pokemon X and Pokemon Y have collectively become the fastest-selling Nintendo game in Australia. The two titles sold over 100,000 units in its first weekend, surpassing Black/White’s 80,000 first week sales. Impressively, that number was achieved in a single day.

A new stage, Mario Galaxy!! The pull of gravity emanates from the center of the planet, so this will require using brand-new tactics.

The 3DS version of Miiverse will seemingly be missing two prominent elements included in its Wii U counterpart. An email response provided by one Nintendo of America customer service representative says users will be unable to exchange messages with friends, and there will be no feature in place which allows friend requests to be sent. It’s a bit of a shame to hear the news, though perhaps these two elements could be added in the future.

Spike TV will once again be hosting its annual video game awards show. This year, though, it’ll come with a new name: VGX.

Geoff Keighley says the show will come with “an expanded digital footprint plus TV coverage on Spike.”

You’ll be able to watch VGX on December 7. The time is set for 6 PM ET, as announced during Spike’s PS4 All Access event a short while ago.

NPD never hands out hardware data these days, meaning we usually have to rely on leaks and estimates in order to find out how well systems perform each month. Thankfully, NeoGAF user “creamsugar” has come through with a decent overview of October’s sales in the US.

Here’s a general estimate provided by creamsugar’s leak:

PSV < 30k < Wii < 40k < 50k < Wii U < 60k < 100k < PS3 < 120k This figure suggests that the Wii U managed to outsell the Wii, which the console has had a tough time doing most of the year. Wii U apparently sold between 50,000 and 60,000 units while the Wii moved between 30,000 and 40,000 consoles. Source

Sonic Lost World’s debut sales in the US are in. For the month of October, the game sold under 30,000 copies. That figure combines sales of both versions – Wii U and 3DS.

Now, 30,000 copies isn’t a whole lot, but there is something important to keep in mind. Sonic Lost World launched in North America on October 29. NPD’s latest reporting period ended on November 2. This means Sonic’s debut sales account for a little less than a week of sales.
