These Were the Top Games of October

Almost, Wii Fit Plus. Almost.

It's November! That means October is over! And that means Enterbrain has managed to assemble its monthly game sales data, allowing for me-too English language sites like this to write articles with such headlines as These Were the Top Games of September and These Were the Top Games of August.

The October Enterbrain charts, as passed along today by Famitsu.com, cover September 28 through October 25.

Pokemon took the top spot for the second month in a row. Last month, the game handily outsold all other top ten members combined. This month, the competition was a bit tougher with newcomers like Wii Fit Plus, Inazuma Eleven 2, and Gran Turismo.
