5. Taito’s arcade game, Space Invaders was so successful in japan that rumors have it that it caused a shortage of 100-yen coins.

7. Dragon Quest is so popular in japan, that it is unlawful to release the game on weekdays because that resulted in children bunking their schools and adults taking sickies to ditch work to play it.

8. Guitar Hero: Aerosmith has made more money for the Aerosmith band than the sale of any of their previous albums.
