Nintendo DS titles like Animal Crossing and Brain Age continue to dominate the charts along side Final Fantasy XII, but a few new titles make it on there this week as well. On the hardware front, DS Lite sales have gone up again and proves Nintendo has met the shipment they promised of approx. 550,000 this month. which was changed a few times due to early manfacturing problems. Hopefully Nintendo can meet and sell the 700,000 shipment they promise in April without any problems.

  Nintendo you dissapoint me, how'd you manage to let 2 PSP games slip in the top 10? Oh well, at least you outsold Final Fantasy XII.

  @Ben: Maybe these games are only the first ones that were shipped in a "DS-Game-Like"-Box to fool the buyers ;) Can´t imagine how else the could´ve reached the top10 ;)

  GC is still beating the XBox, along with all their other consoles!

  although hardware sales are high as always, the software sales are worrying.

  Is that Pokemon Ranger Pearl & DIamond the same Pearl & Diamond scheduled to be the sequel to Emerald, Ruby, Saphire? I thought it was a different game, like the Pokemon Dungeon game... :|
