Being a moderate nintendo fanboy, I had to like that nintendo has all of the top 10, and 20 of the top 25.

    PC game sales are a bit harder to track, because a lot of people play PC games without paying for them.

    For example, with World of Warcraft, I didn't even pay for the game. The PC market is huge, but it's operates differently because of the economy. With wow, I paid for the account, which was about 5 bucks. The game download was free (although it sure took a while). It also operates on an hourly basis, and for abot 4 bucks or so you get 4000 minutes of gametime.

    A lot of PC games operate this way, and combined with general piracy of older games, they can be harder to track on a global scale.

    I know little about piracy in South Korea, but good god look at the dedication to Starcraft.

    I'm pretty sure this chart is only about sales, not the number of copies being run at any given time.

    Nintendogs? Seriously?

    I didn't realize how freaking popular that was. Every time I made a reference to going out to buy it, it was always very sarcastic.

    When I say I like Blizzard it's because of Norath, and the like. As for WOW, I've previously stated that I don't own a computer. So, there.

    Also the whole "Hacker Thing" explains the sad lack of Lode Runner. Tisk.
