Nintendo Responds To April NPD Sales, Seems Pleased
By Alex Johnson | January 01, 0001
As we’ve seen, while they tried to put 
a brave face on, April was fairly forgettable for Microsoft and Sony. But Nintendo? Well, Nintendo have something to crow about. https://kotaku.com/microsoft-responds-to-april-npd-sales-seems-pleased-5255379 The DS alone sold over a million, outselling every other competitor’s console, portable and [[link]] handheld, combined, with the new DSi contributing a mighty 827,000 of those sales. That tally set a new all-time record for April 
hardware sales in the US.(new [[link]] Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=995c4c7d-194f-4077-b0a0-7ad466eb737c&cid=872d12ce-453b-4870-845f-955919887e1b'; cnx.cmd.push(function() { cnx({ playerId: "995c4c7d-194f-4077-b0a0-7ad466eb737c" }).render("79703296e5134c75a2db6e1b64762017"); }); But it’s not like the Wii was slacking, either, as with 340,000 sold it did better than the tallied sales of the 360 and PS3. Knowing that the numbers speak for themselves, and that kicking your opponents while down is bad sport, Nintendo of America smile machine Cammie [[link]] Dunaway kept it brief, saying “Nintendo systems and software represented 56 percent of the industry total shares in April, indicating continued strong consumer preference for quality and value”. “Looking ahead, we are excited 
to introduce active-play games like Punch-Out!! and Wii Sports Resort into the market.” Oh come now, Cammie. We bet you’re excited for Spirit Tracks, too.

The progressive jackpots are thrilling, and it's exciting to watch the jackpot amounts grow as more players spin the reels. I hope they add even more jackpot slots because it adds a lot of excitement to the gameplay. I appreciate the themed slot games, especially those based on movies and TV shows. They make the gaming experience more engaging and immersive. The combination of storyline, visuals, and bonus features makes each game feel unique. The variety of games is excellent, including table games like blackjack, roulette, and baccarat, in addition to slots. This keeps the platform interesting and allows me to switch games depending on my mood.
