Pikachu and his Pokemon pals have knocked those heroes on the half-shell, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, from the top of the sales charts in the UK. Pokemon Ranger shoved TMNT: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles aside and claimed the top spot for Nintendo, which I'm sure the company much appreciated, given that it had two other titles in the Top 20 (New Super Mario Bros. and Hotel Dusk).
You know what I love about Pokemon? Everyone mocks it, but everyone still plays it. I know three people who are entranced by Diamond and/or *Pearl *right now, and they're all grown men. The time has come to be open about our pocket monster proclivities, my friends. There is no shame in loving the Pokemon--embrace your inner Trainer and declare to the world, I choose you!
Meanwhile, back on the sales charts, EA is this week's big winner with six titles gracing the Top 20: Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2007, Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars, Medal of Honor Vanguard, UEFA Champions League 2006-2007, The Sims 2: Pets, and FIFA 07. ____
