Did they really need to label that data point? "Look, here's where the price dropped!"

Not really the same scenario. It's easy to touch the back of your finger where your ring is, because of proprioception or something. Just like how you can close your eyes and touch your nose.

I think this game demonstrates an interesting way to use the rear touchpad, but it's not going to completely replace the use of the front touchscreen. For other games you will need to see specifically what you're touching.

I wanted to add, I just don't understand why people are fussing about this. Lots of other games have been ported or re-released. It's not a big deal.

Yeah, it's kinda lazy, and of course a sequel would be better than an enhanced port. But all game companies are just here to make money. They want to release the first great RPG on the 3DS.

I've always wondered if Japanese gamers ever import N. American games, much like some of us import their games.

Scribblenauts in English seems like it might actually work in Japan. You can get through most of the puzzles on a grade 4 level vocabulary. I know because my 10-year-old niece is playing through it. Scribblenauts could be a neat exercise in learning a new language.

Nokia is very popular pretty much everywhere outside of North America. Sure, the N-Gage bombed, but their other cell phones are awesome.

What is up with all these people who don't know that the Dragonball series creator is also the artist for the Dragon Quest series? Even if you're not into RPGs, this should be common knowledge for any videogame fan. It's like knowing that Peter Moore worked for Sega in the Dreamcast years. Or knowing that the voice actor for Marcus Fenix in Gears of War also does Bender in Futurama.

Or maybe I just store too much useless trivia in my head >_>

Both good points ... I was just surprised to see it drop off so fast, since it was advertised so heavily to the general masses.

Is anyone else surprised to see GTA IV completely missing from the top 10? The 360 version was #1 in April and May, while the PS3 version was #3 and then #4.
Well, whatever.
