Prepare to receive some contradicting memos this week if you're a member of the Nintendo Defense Force. The DS sales chart sandwich has returned, leaving NDF commanders confused as to whether they should attack or defend on the bulletin board battlefields.

We'd recommend spinning your impending comment with references to "pincer tactics" and "trash compactors."
