What console did this come out for? I have to admit those are really good first day sales!

I want to say it is for the PS3. These sales are amazing to me. Even after hearing about this game for a few weeks now, I did not know how big this show was.

One Piece is really big in Japan. One piece's manga is outselling Naruto by millions.
