Well done chaps.

Hopefully a sales spike.

What I can't quite get my head around though on these Edge charts, is how can Zelda be game of the year across all system, yet come second to Mario on the Switch charts?

DAMN can't find that old 198X ad ...

CAN NOT HAPPEN BECAUSE :

- Yak never had a GF telling him to send his code to company XYZ cause a classified ad she read on a newspaper
- Yak never had a house with a cellar/basement where he spent most nights coding
- Yak never had a Commodore PET at home to code with

Therefore :

He never managed and/or can never mange to "sometime later in greece" being with his PET CBM on that very yatch coding
while at the sea and his GF is sunbathing.

However I am quite sure if Yak would have that sort of money he'd probably open some sort of "Sheep Sanctuary" or stuff like that :)

Indeed.

Dunno if anyone watches The Angry Video Game Nerd. He did a nice episode for Polybius https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x4hktqhBpzY

I was just thinking that, in hindsight, the game should have perhaps been called "Polybius 2".

Just to play on the urban legend some more, by implying that this is a sequel to the mythical original arcade.

(Also, ever the contrarian, I just love the idea of purposefully using wrong numbering. Starting on "2", just to fuck with people.)

I am reminded of the director changing the title of Alan Bennett's The Madness of George III to The Madness of King George so USAmerican audiences would not think the film was a sequel.
