It only did 55k that is like 30-40k less than I thought it would do considering how decent the first one has sold over the years. Not to mention I hated the first one, but got this one after reading on here and love it. What do you all think about lifetime sales for this??

My game didn't ship until yesterday, even though I preordered it (1 day before release).
I think the first shipment is just extremely low?

If you ordered it last week but get the game this week.
Which week does the sale count in?

No idea. I would think the Week you get it though

it should eventually hit 1 million, albeit slower then the original

Well, I haven't played Red Steel 2 but if it's as good as people are saying it is then I would think word of mouth would help sales in the long run...hopefully.

Word of mouth will keep it afloat to at least 500k I think...

pretty bad numbers for a FPS game with no competition on the wii

So now the Call of duty's and the conduit are not competition?

@OP: 55K is not that bad. Waw sold less and other Nintendo games like PO! sold the same more or less on the 1st week and now are in the million copies.

imagine if there is no piracy on Wii, thats what i am trying to tell people for awhile =[, Wii gets sold more but games sell less.
