Nintendo's free online service has been taken by storm with legions of rockers hitting the internet to face off against fellow five-button guitarists.
Stats for the week ending November 4 show that mighty DS titles such as Mario Kart DS, Animal Crossing: Wild World, Metroid Prime Hunters and even Zelda: Phantom Hourglass were all knocked down a slot when GH III charged in with 622,580 connections, placing second only behind the predictably popular Pokemon Diamond/Pearl games which saw an astonishing 1,455,526 connections.
The recently-released first party war game, Battalion Wars 2, only managed 35,982 connections. Good news for Activision.
Check out the full list of official figures (via NeoGAF) below:
[NDS] Pokémon Diamond & Pearl - 1,455,526 connections*
[WII] Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock - 622,580 connections
