ChartSpot: January 2007

Last month, NPD Funworld released figures showing that Lost Planet had sold an impressive 329,000 copies. As it turns out, that figure was only the regular edition of the game. Combined with sales of the collector's edition, the well-reviewed Capcom shooter moved more than 408,000 units from January 12-31, making it the month's undisputed top non-PC title.

Also doing well in January was The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. When combined, the Wii edition, which finished fifth for the month, and GameCube version (sixth) sold more than 332,000 copies. Other big January finishers were Guitar Hero II (PlayStation 2, 270,000 copies), Gears of War (Xbox 360, 220,700 copies), WarioWare: Smooth Moves (Wii, 201,000 copies), and Resistance: Fall of Man (PlayStation 3, 143,500 copies).

On the portable front, the month's top game was the seven-month-old DS favorite New Super Mario Bros., which made 10th place across all non-PC platforms by selling 125,000 copies. Right behind it was an even older title for Nintendo's plucky dual-screen handheld, Brain Age: Train Your Brain in Minutes a Day, which sold 95,000-plus units. The most popular PlayStation Portable game was Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories, which came in 18th with 71,866 copies.

However, the month's biggest game on any platform was on the PC. The World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade expansion pack sold a whopping 1.4 million copies from the 15 days in between its January 16 release and the end of the month, proving that the WOW fan base's appetite for new content is insatiable.
