When fashioning your character, you can call up any Miis already saved to your Wii and customize them with any of the items available in the editor -- minus hats and goggles -- or you can start a new character entirely from scratch. You can combine the abundant library of interchangeable character types and items to create skiers from the straightforward to the absurd (I made a kindly old grandfather, sporting racing gear and a top hat). After that, you'll shove off to Happy Trails Ski Resort."
Namco Bandai today released their Q1 2010 earnings report. And buried amidst the boring money stuff (net sales are down 15.8%) is something a little more interesting: game sales data.
Listed were the publisher's top five-selling games for the quarter ending June 30, 2009 (as in, only those sold during that three-month period, not lifetime sales). Those expecting Nintendo-like numbers will be disappointed, but those who love Afro Samurai - or just numbers in general - will be thrilled!
Poor Namco. Their best selling game isn't even well reviewed or high in sales. The other 4 are just jokes anyways. Hopefully they shuffle up some good game ideas for this next quarter to keep afloat since I like the Tales of series.
this is what they get for unleashing Ace Combat to a foreign audience and abandoning the outright loyalty of the PS horde; otherwise ruining the track record of an excellent franchise.
where in the world is KK and that fkn Cellius...? >_<
The top ten best-selling games for Namco Bandai during the 2008-2009 fiscal year.Tales of Vesperia for the Xbox 360 is surprisingly not on the list.

6. Naruto Ultimate Ninja: Storm

Region(s): Europe, Japan and United States
Total Sales: 640,000 units
I do better with Namco exclusive only for ps3 and more than flops been there in 360fixme.
Wow Naruto UN Storm sold rather well! Is anyone really surprised TOV has not sold well on 360.

"
We Ski And Snowboard Ships For Wii As if We Skiing wasn't enough, now We (can) Ski & Snowboard. Hoo-ray! Namco Bandai recently announced that their prime-time snow grinding game is shipping for the Wii, and should be readily available for purchase at local retailers."
Quite a good review for a casual title.
