Yeah I was thrilled to see Quest show up at the number #3 spot. The Babbages and Software Etc.s really didn't even get the game on the shelf until Friday giving it only three days worth of sales. Also, Quest 64 is very expensive at both stores at a price of $69.99...and yet it still beat Acclaim's All Star Baseball and Nintendo's Griffey games. Note how it was the top selling Nintendo 64 game and that is before the commercials begin to air on all the networks starting today. I have done channel checks at several retailers in my area and plan on returning each week to see what effect the commercials have it any. My old UCLA roommate went to the shareholders meeting and informs me the Quest 64 commercial is quite good and even has a "babe" in it! Quest is selling better than I expected.
