The top 3 best selling /vr/ (before 2007, no gen 7) games of all time.Thoughts?
>>12929069>SABro thinks he's on the team
>timeless kino>timeless kino...>GTA 3 n*gger edition
>>12929069i like funny bing bing wahoo man whenhe jump
>>12929069Looks accurate. Thoughts? >Popular is popular, stay tuned for more shocking news at 11
>>12929069I enjoy all those games even playing then today and I have very fond memories of when they were new or at least new to me in the case of SMB which I didn't play til 1993.
>>12929069pack in games dont count
Do they even play games or just discuss sales numbers forever?
>>12929069why would you only post 3? and why include a pack in game?
>>12929069SMB shouldn't count, since it was included with the NES for years
>>12929448numberfaggotry is the number 1 indicator of the browning of the internet
>>12929474>since it was included with the NES for yearsAll three were heavily bundled games. The PS2 slim often came with san andreas. These were the years when PS2 sales soared later in its life by tens of millions of consoles sold and all the normalfags bought it for gta. Same was true for pokemon where it quickly became the default bundle game for game boy (replacing tetris). The yellow version was the main bundle during the peak of the pokemon craze, and OPs image counts all versions (red, blue, green and yellow). Like san andreas, pokemon was a killer app late in the consoles life.
>>12929069>no gen 7when you're scared to show wii sports has like double the sales of smb1
>>12929721You know what board you’re on, right?
>>12929746yeah
>>12929834>officiallyoh fuck off
>>12929834Retro officiater here. We have no such records of doing such a thing, but if we did we would undo it because your picture is proof the Wii is used primarily by a problematic banned group (attention whores).
>>12929069GayGayThird world
>>12929834The Wii will literally never be retro
>>12929070>>12929073>t. boiling with rage
>>12929069>first and worst installment of a franchise>first and worst installment of a franchise>fifth and best installment of a franchise weird
>>12929069>bing bing wahoo>porn and sex>ball and gunso normies really are the cancer plaguing us?
>>12930437>worst But those are not SMB2 and BW
>>12929834>It's as iconic as SNES and N64I liked the Wii, but no one can be this delusional.
>>12929701Pokemon Red/Blue was never bundled with the Game Boy. Yellow was bundled with the GBC. The only other bundle I'm aware of is the GB Pocket that came with SML 1 and 2.
>>12930519it sold more than both combined
>>12930542Are sales figures the only thing you give a shit about? Do more sales mean something is better or more iconic to you? Do more sales equate to having a larger legacy and fonder memories of a community at large?
>>12930546This, earthbound sold like shit but it has a bigger community than any sportslop game from that era
>>12930554I'm just so sick of discussion being centered around sales figures like it fucking matters. Appeal to authority logical fallacy.>HURR DURR BIGGR NUMBER MEANS BETTER GAEM LOLFucking idiots.
>>12930546I remember standing in line at launch and buying it and a hundred million other people remember playing Wii Sports. There's a lot of casuals who know what the Wii is but don't know what a N64 is.>>12930554Earthbound is saferetro posercore. None of the discourse trannies who talk about it even played it.
>>12930569>Earthbound is saferetro posercore.Nice job parroting a twitter meme and conveniently forgetting that time Earthbound fans sent an 819 page petition to have Mother 3 released in the west. Fucking dumbass.
>>12930525Sorry yea, yellow came with color bundle not regular. Red and blue were bubdled with gamegameboys as well, just not north America. Either way yellow sales are still counted with red/green/blue worldwide.
>>12930572who cares? there was also a big partition to get starfy localized. I remember some fag shilling it on old forums. everyone signed it even though they never played starfy. and 819 pages means nothing. they probably put 1 name per page and samefagged half of them
>>12930581It had more than 30,000 signatures and most of the signatures came from a single forum with a huge community. You have no clue what you're even talking about.
>>12930584>30,000 signaturesI'm just so sick of discussion being centered around signature figures like it fucking matters. Appeal to authority logical fallacy.>HURR DURR BIGGR NUMBER MEANS BETTER GAEM LOLFucking idiots.
>>12930587>doesn't understand what a logical fallacy is or how one is used
>>12930558>doesn't understand what a logical fallacy is or how one is used
>>12930593You are so mad, lmao.
>>12930590You are so mad, lmao.
>>12929069>Thoughts?They are the top 3 best selling /vr/There, thread done.
>>12929834I kneel
>>12930584Didnt matter, the DS was already out when the petition arrived and a translation would take another year on top of that. Nintendo wanted retailers to focus shelf space on current gen not GBA games, even with 30,000 promises nintendo had to answer to walmart. Even in its primary market mother 3 only sold a few hundred thousand copies and underperformed.
>>12930608The post was more to prove that the game had an actual fanbase who was passionate about the game. Yeah, Earthbound and Mother 3 sold like shit, but you don't see forums for Wii Sports with tens of thousands of users discussing how much they loved that game, despite it selling millions of copies.
>>12930554>EarthBound releases>not very popular in the west>winds up with some diehard fans>diehard fans congregate online and form an internet fandom>EB becomes known as that weird quirky game you never played, but has a diehard online fanbase>above is parrotted so frequently that the game becomes better known in the west, even among those who never played it>winds up influencing things that become wildly popular, furthering its notoriety It's like the "did you know SMB2 was DDP" thing used to be an interesting factoid to point out to non-Japanese gamers 20+ years ago, but has been regurgitated so much, on an easily searchable internet, that the act of parroting the fact became a joke. EB used to be relatively obscure in the west, but the obscurity was such a point of interest that it wound up causing its popularity to boom, to the extent that the idea that it was ever obscure in the first place feels like a joke, and anybody who still acts as though liking EB makes them some fringe hardcore gamer comes across as a poser.
>>12929073Why did you censor niᵍᵍᵉʳ?
>>12930618The explosion of smash brothers popularity made Ness more well known as well, and it was a gateway for a lot of new earthbound fans (or at least people who read the EB wiki page and liked the concept). It became their favorite game they never played.
>>12931015Because it's an AI bot from a jewish/chink bot farm. They can't say certain words.
>>12931015because wacism is a no-no on blue boards>>12931035retard
>>12930546>>12930554What community at large? Popular with a small minority of gaming nerds who are very loud on certain online platforms doesn't mean popular in the real world. I guarantee I can find more people IRL who have nostalgia for old sports games and GTA than people who have ever heard of Earthbound. Hardcore gamers are a minority.
