Mario's Sales Still Super In Japan

Nintendo’s newest Mario adventure floats comfortably atop Japan’s bestsellers list, with Super Mario Galaxy 2 selling another 100,000-plus copies to Wii owners, according to latest figures. For the second week in a row, Mario had little competition for the first place spot. This week, Konami’s Fairy Tail: Portable Guild for the PSP came closest. When the new debuts consist of Evangelion pachinko/pachislot games and the horror restaurant interactive fiction game Kaidan Restaurant: Ura Menu 100-Sen, it’s doubtful Mario was worried about his first place chances this week.(new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=995c4c7d-194f-4077-b0a0-7ad466eb737c&cid=872d12ce-453b-4870-845f-955919887e1b'; cnx.cmd.push(function() { cnx({ playerId: "995c4c7d-194f-4077-b0a0-7ad466eb737c" }).render("79703296e5134c75a2db6e1b64762017"); }); Read on to see how a handful of new debuts and [[link]] plenty of old favorites sold during the past week, according to Japanese sales tracker Media Create. 01.
