Pokemon Mysterious Dungeon Red and Blue? What lame names.

Tamagotchi on the other hand sounds like a great DS game!

Jebus, did Nintendo find a way to brainwash the people of Japan all of a sudden?

DarkMaster · 01-12-2006, 08:26 PM

Japan loves that quirky, innovative sh*t.

Where? If you mean the list you posted first, those are software numbers, not console.....

Teuthida · 01-14-2006, 07:20 PM

I think Crash is referring to consoles as opposed to handhelds whereas Mugen was referring to system sold numbers. A simple misunderstanding.

Crash · 01-15-2006, 12:41 AM

oh yeah... heh, oops...
