Nintendo dominates Software charts in 2009
And probably hardware, but the stats haven't been released just yet. But if last month was any indication (7 million DS and Wii consoles combined), then they are the clear cut winner.
It's ironic how people blast Nintendo, but in actuality if it wasn't for them the games they play on other consoles wouldn't have even gotten the funding since the games industry would be broke!
Video Game Statistics
Things to take away from the following infograph:
1) More gamers over 50 than under 18.
2) It sucks to be a PS3 owner.
3) Nintendo sells to girls and children (and Swag ... oops, Bling)
4) the XBox 360 breaks a lot. (who knew??)
5) Mario is a fracking disease.
6) PC gaming is irrelevant.
7) Duck Hunt No. 5 all time! Woo hoo!

New high for Der Riese!
And, by the way, 24 wasn't our high
So Graybush, Stormblade and I have a love/hate relationship with the "Der Riese" map on Call of Duty: World at War. We have our patterns and strategies and we still die. Often. And often early.
But we had reached as high as 20 previously. Twenty! And we were damn proud of that twenty.
