PSX N64 Top 5
Jan 14 6 PSX 1, 2, 4, 5
Feb 9 11 PSX 1, 4
Mar 14 6 PSX 3, 4, 5
Apr 11 9 PSX 2, 3, 4
May 11 9 PSX 1, 2, 5
------------------------------------
Total 59 41 PSX: 15 top 5 positions (8 unique titles, 1.875 repeat rate)
N64: 10 top 5 positions (6 unique titles, 1.667 repeat rate)
Tekken 3 (PSX) has rised from #2 in April to #1 in May while 1080
Snowboarding (N64) fell from #1 to #3. I really don't see any
weakness with PSX titles. In addition, I doubt FF7 is the top selling
PSX title last year as PSX titles consistently performed well in the
top 20 charts. I suspect WCW Nitro alone can surpass 373,000 mark in
less than 6 months.
Don't get me wrong, I think N64 will be a success as PSX getting old
now. AKLM is still my second favorite game company, although I like
my first choice much much much more :o)
