I would say Sony Domination but the numbers speak for themselves. Good job Sony you deserve it!

On another not 360 doing way better than the same period last year and the Wii selling good hw numbers despite lack of huge releases.

All around not too shabby.

Oh, I believe Famitsu said it'll be at 61.000. I'm just having a hard time believing Famitsu is correct on this one.



OK, more numbers from Famitsu:

1.バイオPS3 320000
2.7ドラ 82000
3. バイオ360 79000
4.マルチレイド 68000 296000
5.リューサン 57000 414000
6.マリルイ3  43000 378000
7.相棒 33000
8.スパロボSP 29000
9.MHP2Gbest 23000 
10.WiiFit  19000

I'll translate them, and update the OP.

One thing I noticed, is that 7th Dragon is almost 50% lower than in the Japan Preview.



@Chrizum

Why not? My guess, DS with huge install base of >26M is reaching it's saturation level in Japan. PSP as a runner up among two relevant systems for japanese market is grabbing it's niche. Still DS software >> PSP software, but speaking of hardware sales I can't see future for DS in Japan.

//I was hoping Wii would grab second place in nearest future, becoming "the japanese home console", but at this pace it won't happen. Too bad, there're no other candidates to achieve that title besides Wii. Japan = portables since 2006 and forever, sigh...

Those are some legs on Demon's Souls.

Game should be around 100k by now right?

 

Glad to see VC getting some more sales, it deserves it.

Do we have any way of tracking Asian sales for this game (English version)? If so, do we count them here?
I know for a fact that it gets regularly stocked at sites like PlayAsia and sell out almost instantly.
This game is doing very well for itself.

*I am not 100% sure on what territories Famitsu, Mediacreate and/or Dengeki cover, so for all I know they are already counted.
