Okay, figure Corbie spent 30 minutes per week compiling the list, adding the commentary and posting the update. At 4 weeks per month, that's 2 hours monthy, times 12 months, that's 24 hours. We'll miss the lists, which most of us can see at will on the Shop Channel anyway, but Corbie's year just got a day longer! Spend it well, my friend!

Aww.... Why couldn't Nintendo make the demos not affect the top 20?

The DSiWare top 2 has only changed twice, from DSi Browser and (insert title here) to Flipnote and DSi Browser and (for one day) Flipnote and MySims Camera.

Well, I do a top 6 on my regular DSi Shop Update on my YouTube channel.

Oh well, thanks for doing the Top 20 guys and I will look forward to what will take its place now :)

I still can not for the life of me figure out how the heck SMB 3 is still number 1. Don't tell me it is because it an awesome game, and with that kind of thinking you might as well say Reel Champion Fishing or whatever and My Aquarium are awesome games too. XD

Anyway, I think Nintendo should remove the demo and free games off of the listing, but if Nintendo Life still does not want to bother then do not bother. :)

That's what I found weird too. If it was just based on actual sales made during that period, should the majority got it by now? Same with WiiWare. My Aquarium is in the top for ages, doesn't all the non gamers own this already? But then a game like LostWinds 2, Tales of Monkey Island or Uno comes along and claims the top spot. A week after release. So then it would account for actual sales. But I'm still not sure.

Yeah. It is quite weird and I suspect there is some fixing involved by Nintendo.

And in site related news, if the demos drop off the list when they're expired, will the charts come back again as per usual?

Just to let everyone know, I'm starting a top 20 for DSiware. It's in the DSiware section of the forums [duh].

Good question. If the demos are only for a limited time and they're not replaced with more, I can't see why not :)

I am not ignoring you. I just do not post much.
