Hm looks like Zelda hasn't got the chance to sell much copies yet.

Yeah, for only being out half a month, that's really impressive. And, hey, Pokemon selling so well is also a Godsend mostly because it was released rather late as well. As for number 3, What the hell? How did a soccer game do so well? That's kind of suprising.

It may be hard to believe, but sports games can be VERY high quality, deep, engrossing games :eek:
And besides, the Japenese are crazy over 'football'. Put two and two together, and you get a million-seller.

Soccer is very big in Japan, or to be more specific Winning Eleven 6 (which is coming to Gamecube).

Is it just me, or are those Zelda numbers off by atleast 100,000?
Were these numbers from Dengeki?
