Mario stays on top

PC Data has released its list of the top-selling video games for the week ending February 17. Nintendo, which had a good week, takes the top four slots. Paper Mario, one of the few RPGs available for the Nintendo 64, continues to sell well, while Pokémon Gold and Silver make a return to the top five. PlayStation 2 software is finally beginning to consistently make the top 10, with four titles on the list this week. Dreamcast software sales have again cooled off: Phantasy Star Online is the only DC title to make the top 10 this week.
