I never heard of the first game.

When it comes to Japan it looks like the more original a game is, the better it'll succeed. Nintendo has worked really hard to get to such new heights. They've deserved every credit they've earned.

Those are all from Nintendo?! wow! Tells you how hard Nintendo works for the public to get good games compared to sony or microsoft.

Makes sense logically seeing as Wii is selling 2:1 against PS3 and the DS is selling 5:1 against PSP, and the Japanese don't like the Xbox or 360, so that leaves Nintendo to completely milk the market, and come out on top with a $1 billion+ Profit at the end of the year!
Gonzo
Can anyone tell when Pokemon Diamond and Pearl are coming out in the US. And also, I would think Zelda should be up there, what happened.

Gonzo: April 22. It seems like the Japanese don't like Zelda.
