Gamestop’s Top 8 of 2008 for Nintendo DS
The other day I realized that Gamestop made top 8 of 2008 lists for the current video game consoles. The list for Nintendo DS includes the following in no particular order:
- Chrono Trigger
- Mario Kart DS
- Club Penguin: Elite Penguin Force
- Final Fantasy IV
- Guitar Hero on Tour
- Pokemon Ranger: Shadow of Almia
- New Super Mario Bros.
- Sonic Chronicles: Dark Brotherhood
The list includes some greatt DS games that I have personally enjoyed, but I am kind of annoyed at their pathetic attempt at making a list, as it contains some odd choices, such as Club Penguin , which while I liked I do not see as worthy as a big name company’s top 8 list because it got pretty darn confusing real fast. I doubt it is even on there top 8 selling list except maybe of more recent releases. The main thing I do not like about their list is that it contains games that did not come out in 2008. I just do not get putting the year 2008 in the name of the list if you are not going to keep the list limited to releases for the year.
