Nintendo 3DS XL Black Edition Releasing in August for North America

It’s not enough that Nintendo’s 3DS XL is the number one selling console across the United States, beating out the Xbox 360 which had a years-long reign at the top. It’s not enough that there are excellent releases coming out for the handheld later this year including Pokemon X & Y, The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds and much more. It’s certainly not enough that North America already has the blue, red and pink 3DS XLs in the continent.

Because Nintendo has announced that it’ll be releasing a black 3DS XL on August 11th. To make things even more awesome, it will be launching on the same day Mario & Luigi: Dream Team Bros. and retail for $200.

Will this be the decisive blow for the 3DS XL to win the war in North America? Will it be the beginning of the end of the PlayStation Vita (again)? Or will it just be a new colour for the 3DS XL? Find out, next week, when it premieres.

Japan Game Sales: Mario and Luigi Dream Team Bros. Debuts at Number 1

The euphoria behind the Wii U’s rise last week with Pikmin 3 was short-lived it seems, as yet another Nintendo franchise, Mario & Luigi: Dream Team Bros. has claimed the top spot in this week’s software sales according to the latest Media Create sales charts (courtesy of Gematsu).

Mario & Luigi: Dream Team Bros. went on to sell 99,972 units in its first week, with Pikmin 3 tumbling down into third place with 28,513 units sold this week (with 121,233 lifetime sales units). Yokai Watch, another 3DS title, sold 29,102 units this week and managed to hang on at number 2 with 82,756 units sold since release.

Meanwhile, Level 5’s Danball Senki W Super Custom debuted this week with 27,242 units sold at fourth place. Tomodachi Collection: New Life managed to sell 26,799 units this week – with 1,286,646 units sold over its lifetime – to remain in fifth place.

So while Nintendo still dominates the top 5, it’s a little disheartening to see the long-awaited Pikmin 3 dip so low after just one week. Let’s see how sales over the next few months play out.

UK Sales Charts: The Last of Us is Number 1 for Sixth Week

Naughty Dog’s premier action adventure exclusive for the PS3 is showing no signs of letting up, as The Last of Us is on top of the all formats charts in the UK again, according to the latest UKIE games charts courtesy Gfk Chart-Track.

This marks the sixth week in a row, starting from the game’s release on June 10th, that The Last of Us has topped the sales charts. It is followed this week by Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition, which jumped from fifth place the week prior to second place, and Mario & Luigi: Dream Team Bros. which holds steady at third place.

Meanwhile, Animal Crossing: New Leaf has fallen to fourth place in the charts even as a new challenger appears in the form of Dynasty Warriors 8, debuting at the fifth position this week. Surprisingly, Rockstar Games has made a comeback this month with Max Payne 3 (number 7), Grand Theft Auto Episodes: Liberty City (number 17) and Red Dead Redemption: Game of the Year Edition (number 18).

UK Game Charts: The Last of Us at Number 1 for Fifth Straight Week

Naughty Dog’s critically acclaimed action survival adventure The Last of Us has captured the hearts of gamers (and many non-gamers everywhere). According to the latest UKIE Game Charts, courtesy of Gfk Chart-Track, it’s commercial success is pretty much assured as well as it spends as its fifth week at on top in the UK.

Animal Crossing: New Leaf for the 3DS is still holding at second, with Mario & Luigi: Dream Team Bros debuting at third place. FIFA 13 is still very dominant in the top 5 at fourth position, with Mojang’s Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition at number 5.

There’s isn’t much change from previous months in the remainder of the top 10 – Far Cry 3, Call of Duty: Black Ops II – Activision, Assassin’s Creed III and Tomb Raider still occupy spots. Oddly enough, Aliens: Colonial Marines has reappeared at the top 10 position. Don’t expect that trend to last but it is somewhat odd given the game’s dubious quality.
