Thoughts/Question:
Resident Evil The Darkside Chronicles has seen a pretty large decrease in its Amazon.com sale rank compared to last week.  Last week, it was ranked #828, this week it's ranked #1,584.
I wonder if the release of Red Steel 2 had anything to do with it?

Do you think Red Steel 2 releasing is the reason for Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles' large drop in Amazon.com's sale ranks?

  1. Hey, you know what I've been wondering? How does Link's Crossbow Training fit in with these titles? Did it even chart? I haven't ever seen it on the channel. Do you consider that a rail shooter? From what I've heard, its more of a shooting gallery, but I'd still group it with these games. What do you think.

  2. @Chuckpebble:
    I've actually looked at Link's Crossbow Training before, but never broken down the data.

    I would consider a rail type shooter, the main reason for these three games, is they were all released in 2009.

    I'll do a "flashback" of some sort, and try to get Link's Crossbow Training up this week!

    Thanks for the comment!
