北米でのゲームキューブ50万本突破タイトルリスト
2005年8月29日(月) 0時34分 IGNのフォーラムで北米でのゲームキューブの50万本突破タイトルのリストを見つけたので紹介します。データはNPD Groupの集計で2005年7月までのものです。トップは日本と同じく『大乱闘スマッシュブラザーズDX』で300万本近いですね。 続編の方が売れてるゲームがリメイクバイオ→4以外に無いのは少し寂しいですね。ハードの勢いがゲームの売れ行きにダイレクトに反映されている感じです。 1 大乱闘スマッシュブラザーズDX 任天堂 2,877,352 2 マリオカート ダブルダッシュ 任天堂 2,738,504(*) 3 スーパーマリオサンシャイン 任天堂 2,696,209(*) 4 ゼルダの伝説 風のタクト 任天堂 1,938,073 5 ルイージマンション 任天堂 1,706,933 6 メトロイドプライム 任天堂 1,642,624(*) 7 ソニックアドベンチャー2バトル セガ 1,157,975 8 どうぶつの森 任天堂 1,040,158 9 マリオパーティ4 任天堂 975,909 10 ソニックメガコレクション セガ 935,469 11 ポケモンコロシアム 任天堂 905,924 12 スターウォーズ ローグスコードロンII EA 885,785 13 マリオパーティ5 任天堂 830,330 14 ソウルキャリバー2 ナムコ 822,060 15 スターフォックスアドベンチャー 任天堂 819,037 16 スパイダーマン ザ・ムービー アクティビジョン 719,034 17 マリオパーティ6 任天堂 690,320 18 ピクミン 任天堂 678,018 19 マリオゴルフ ファミリーツアー 任天堂 658,448 20 スーパーマリオRPG 任天堂 643,921 21 スーパーモンキーボール セガ 620,234 22 スーパーモンキーボール2 セガ 618,364 23 スポンジボブ スクウェアパンツ THQ 559,987 24 ソニックヒーローズ セガ 553,053 25 ファインディングニモ THQ 546,308 26 バイオハザード4 カプコン 540,132 27 カービィのエアライド 任天堂 536,118 28 メトロイドプライム2 ダークエコーズ 任天堂 532,572 29 ソニックアドベンチャーDX セガ 527,504 30 トニーホークプロスケーター3 アクティビジョン 521,480 31 ニードフォースピード ホットパラサイト2 EA 521,066 32 スターウォーズ ローグスコードロンIII EA 520,169 33 バイオハザード カプコン 513,574 (*)は同梱版を含む Super Smash Bros.

Nintendo announces Dog Days of Summer: Girls' Gaming Event for Nintendogs Brief: This Sunday, hang out with Nintendo and the puppies in NYC and take part in the huge interactive event. Related Links: Nintendo For obvious reasons, Nintendo is going after the non-usual game demographics with Nintendogs. And to celebrate the fact, later this week, they will be holding a girl gamer interactive event at the Nintendo World Store in NYC. Read on for the official details. Nintendo's Dog Days of Summer: Girls' Gaming Event showcases Nintendogs, the new puppy simulator for Nintendo DS that has sparked a nationwide craze in the United States and Japan, as owners began raising, training, and falling in love with their lifelike puppies. The doggie trend continues with an afternoon of entertainment and fun. It's a great chance to see what the buzz is all about.

欧州任天堂・柴田社長「携帯ゲーム機市場は50%以上拡大」
2005年8月29日(月) 0時15分 http://www.nintendo-inside.jp/news/169/16926.html -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 任天堂オブヨーロッパの柴田聡社長は昨夜開催したクリスマスラインナップの発表会の席で、2005年末までに欧州で300万台、英国だけで100万台のニンテンドーDS販売を達成したいと話しました。また柴田氏は、欧州で携帯ゲームビジネスは50%の成長を実現するだろうと述べました。 柴田氏はまず日本や世界中でニンテンドーDSが好調なセールスを続けていることを謳い上げました。「私達は年末までにヨーロッパ全域で300万台、英国だけで100万台のニンテンドーDSを売りたいと考えています。GBASPやミクロの助力も得て、英国での携帯ゲームビジネスは50%の成長を実現するでしょう」 英国任天堂のDavid Yarnton氏は続けます。「1月~7月の任天堂の携帯ゲーム機の売上は91%も上昇しました。小売店が悲観的な見通しをしていたにも関わらず。これは前年の約2倍の規模です。英国で売れたハードの38パーセントは任天堂の携帯機です。ファーストとサードをあわせたソフト売上は2億5000万ポンドにも達するでしょう」 来週にはPSPが欧州で発売されますが、それに関しては次のように話しています。「私達は15年間に渡って携帯ゲーム機市場のオーナーでしたが、決してこれに安住して今までの成功のみに甘んじるつもりはありません。私達は携帯型のゲームを生み出しました。まだ引越しをして明け渡す予定はありません」 2人ともホリデーシーズンに発売されるタイトルとして『Nintendogs』の重要性を語りました。 柴田氏は「日本での『Nintendogs』の発売はソフトとハードの両方でPSPに2~3倍の差を付けた決定打でした。また購入者の40%は女性で、私達が言っている市場を拡大することの明瞭さを実感することができました。また人々のゲームに対する鋭い感覚も知ることができました」 (Article written by Mr.Cube) GamesIndustry.biz Home Shibata is bullish on Nintendo's full-year targets in Europe Shibata is bullish on Nintendo's full-year targets in Europe Rob Fahey 17:44 26/08/2005 "We created portable gaming, and we're not moving out," says Yarnton http://www.gamesindustry.biz/content_page.php?aid=11124 Nintendo Europe expects to see 50 per cent growth in its handheld business in Europe this year, according to European president Satoru Shibata, who says that the company hopes to sell over three million Nintendo DS consoles in 2005. Speaking at a special event held last night to showcase Nintendo's line-up for Christmas, Shibata boasted of the huge success of the DS in Japan to date and its strong uptake in Europe - and made healthy forecasts for the European market for the rest of the year. "We would like to sell over three million units of Nintendo DS across Europe by the end of 2005, and one million units in the UK alone," he told the audience in central London. "Coupled with our forecasts on Game Boy Advance SP and Game Boy Micro, we are looking at a massive 50 per cent growth in the Nintendo handheld business in the UK." The company is well on track to meet that target, according to Nintendo's UK boss David Yarnton, who revealed that "year to date - January to July - like for like sales of Nintendo handheld consoles are up 91 per cent, and that's in an environment of retail doom and gloom." "That's almost double the market of the previous year," he continued. "38 per cent of all hardware sold this year in the UK is now attributable to Nintendo handheld consoles. In retail sales terms, by the end of 2005, Nintendo handheld hardware and first- and third-party software sales will account for a massive GBP 250,000,000 in sales in the UK alone." Regardless of the imminent arrival of the PlayStation Portable in Europe - with Sony's system set to launch next Thursday - Nintendo is bullish about its prospects in this market for the rest of the year. "Despite over 15 years of ownership of the portable games space, we're not planning to sit back and rest on our laurels," Yarnton told the audience. "We created portable gaming, and we're not moving out." Both speakers highlighted Nintendogs as one of the key titles for the holiday season, with the game being presented as an example of a title which reaches far beyond the traditional gaming audience and appeals to a demographic previously untapped by the medium. "The launch of Nintendogs was responsible for making Nintendo DS into the best selling game system in Japan, in fact selling two to three times the rate of the PSP - both hardware and software," Shibata pointed out. "We have also seen in Japan that a massive 40 per cent of purchasers of Nintendogs are females - clear testament that we are expanding the market, and people's very perception of what a videogame is." |
