I guess more people are buying World of Goo since they now have space for it.

World of Goo reclaimed the top spot! Way to go, 2d Boy. You can't keep a good man down.

For Bit.Trip I am of two minds. On the one hand, WELL DONE! Debuting at #4 is darned impressive, and well deserved. On the other hand...My #@&!)$ Aquarium?! Jeez! Somebody knock that thing out of the top 3 already.

I prefer real fish. In fact I already own 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11...
Some time later... 42 in 3 different tanks lol.

@chicken brutus
While it doesnt appeal to you or I, think about it, it is 1) cheap, and 2) an inexpensive aquarium.
Real ones cost money and the free ones on pc are known to be FILLED with spyware and adware.
so it is the best choice. At least that is the only reason I can think of

I think My Aquarium has stayed in the big 3 for so long because it's the best WiiWare game to get when you've only got 500 pts. (And if I'm not mistaken, it's the only one, right?) Of course I would rather spend them on an NES game I may not have tried before.

@smaman
WHat about defend your castle?

Woot! What a great list. Except you, My Aquarium. F*** you.

Since the other post gone bye bye in the other topic and since it really does belong here, here's again the Swedish Top 20:
(2) 1 - Onslaught
(1) 2 - World Of Goo
(11) 3 - Family Table Tennis
(4) 4 - Fun! Fun! Minigolf
(5) 5 - Mega Man 9
(6) 6 - My Aquarium
(3) 7 - Snowboard Riot
(10) 8 - Tetris Party
(9) 9 - LostWinds
(7) 10 - Bomberman Blast
(12) 11 - Defend Your Castle
(15) 12 - Pop-Up Pirate!
(13) 13 - Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life As A King
(19) 14 - Toki Tori
(8) 15 - My Pokémon Ranch
(16) 16 - SPOGS Racing
(14) 17 - Dr. Mario & Germ Buster
(R) 18 - Wild West Guns
(R) 19 - Cocoto Fishing Master
(-) 20 - Jungle Speed

Life to pong, guns and pool death to fish.

Rather than being the big three, top games will eventually be the Great 5 if the titles are kept at the same rank.

Silly Corbie, today is Thursday.

@jangonov
Ah, I knew I was forgetting one... hmm. Maybe a fish tank appeals more to casual gamers than a bunch of button headed stick figures trying to break into a castle. It could also be because DYC is online for free already, and people want to try to get more new stuff for their bucks... I dunno, this list is known to be unpredictable and not at all explainable.

Alright, just cause I'm such a nice person.

But I want it to be Friday...oh wait, it nearly is! Anyway, WoG back on top and I didn't expect to see BTB go up that fast. Could we be looking at the new "Fab 5"? (WOG, TP, MA, BTB, Onslaught)

Goo on top, The king has returned!
Aquarium's time has gone on long enough! If I wanted to look at fish I would walk outside or look out the window.

"If I wanted to look at fish I would walk outside or look out the window."

Where the heck do you live?! Are you a mermaid with an internet connection?

The Big 3 have reformed. The end is nigh!

@jpfan1989
Lucky... all I see when I look out my window is dusty red Texas dirt that gets back on your car no matter how recently you've cleaned it. What, do you have a Koi Pond outside your house? Or do you live in a Chinese restaurant?

I'm glad World of Goo is back to number 1 and Bit.Trip: Beat skyrocketing to the number 4 position. Hopefully it shows other developers what kind of WiiWare games we want: good ones.

I'm guessing SAMEGAME would hit the charts sometime next week. For the cheap price and addicting gameplay, I'm figuring it's a pefrect compliment to other puzzlers like Dr. Mario Online Rx or Tetris Party.

The exact reason My Aquarium is still in the top 3 is the same reason that I'm considering buying it:

It's only 500 points

At that price you can have a bit of a look, get a bit of play time, and not feel like you've wasted your money, especially with a novalty like a virtual fish tank. I'm thinking of getting it just to give it a go. It's unique enough that I'll bite and finally get it... along with Mega Man 9 so I still feel like a gamer.

Comeback, baby - yeah, we knew World of Goo couldn't stay down for long, w00t!

WOG went back on top because of the contest that gametrailers.com is holding right now

edit that and it deserves it

The high entry of BTB may have been affected by the polling date, usually on Wednesday the new entries are still rising so polling later will net a higher position. I'd also be careful about proclaiming a new top X on just one week's sales, the game could have a spike and drop sales curve like Lit or Gradius. Give it a week or two to settle into a more permanent position.

Anyway, let's get started on this list...

Germany:
(1) 1 My Aquarium
(2) 2 World of Goo
(3) 3 Onslaught
(4) 4 FUN FUN Minigolf
(5) 5 TV Show King
(9) 6 Bomberman Blast
(6) 7 Snowboard Riot
(7) 8 Tetris Party
(8) 9 Brain Challenge
(14) 10 Family Table Tennis
(10) 11 Pop-Up Pirate
(12) 12 SAMEGAME
(13) 13 My Pokemon Ranch
(11) 14 Midnight Bowling
(15) 15 LostWinds
(16) 16 CueSports
(17) 17 The Incredible Maze
(18) 18 FFCCMLaaK
(20) 19 Defend Your Castle
(19) 20 Mega Man 9

(Un?) Surprisingly little change there. I think when I checked yesterday or so Family Table Tennis was ranked higher... No new entries and no departures this week.

I think it too early to see the storage solution having an effect. If anything the period before the solution (the shop downtime) has more ffect. Next week should be fun though...

I'm curious, how have the VC Arcade games fared over at the VC side?

Apart from that, I'm upset to see LiT gone from the US charts...that has probably sealed its fate as being US-exclusive...

People like goo!

I don't understand why more publishers don't bring games over to Europe. Might just be me but I'm under the impression that most games have longer legs in European markets than in the US and something tells me that a game like LiT would do especially well.

1 (1) - My Aquarium
2 (2) - World of Goo
3 (3) - Onslaught
4 (4) - Pop-Up Pirate!
5 (5) - Snowboard Riot
6 (6) - My Pokemon Ranch
7 (7) - Defend Your Castle
8 (8) - The Incredible Maze
9 (11) - Bomberman Blast
10 (9) - TV Show King
11 (N) - Family Table Tennis
12 (12) - Tetris Party
13 (10) - FUN! FUN! Minigolf
14 (16) - Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life As A King
15 (17) - Pop Them, Drop Them SAMEGAME
16 (14) - CueSports - Snooker vs. Billiards
17 (15) - LostWinds
18 (18) - Space Invaders Get Even
19 (13) - Brain Challenge
20 (19) - Wild West Guns

Wow, people really don't want to challenge their brains this week.

Nice to see Jungle Speed on a top 20 list. Good job Sweden. A new release to Europe. I guess us North Americans can't find 8 friends to play toghether.

Jesus, Bit Trip had huge sucess. I think it was the WWW review honestly.

Also, great to see WoG back on top! Bet it was the GDC/that other thing awards that put it back up

You know what I just thought?

What if...WHAT if...Hudson payed people to buy My Aquarium to keep it up in the charts?!?!

XD lol, jk...they wouldn't do that... >.>

Oh well, at least WoG is back up top! And congrats to Bit.Trip.Beat for such a big leap to #4.

World of Goo FTW

Should be on top always..... damm My Aquarium stealing the top spot every other week in europe ¬_¬

its a shame that LIT didn't stay to long in the top 20 and its kind funny on how the top 3 games are always the same games just change how they are placed

@Corbie

@chris-Nice, BTB beat My Aquarium.

Congratulations to Gaijin games are in order. To surpass my prediction (landing between spots #10-#5) on the top 20 American charts just proves how great this game is. Well done!

Oh, and congrats on beating My Aquarium as well. Hopefully it will fall more. EXTRA: Who knows, maybe this is the start of Bit. Trip taking My Aquarium's spot.

Bit Trip taking My Aquarium's place would be a nice change of pace.
