Japan - First Day Sales (Wii Music debut)

[ClaudeLv250]

Well the DQM compilation was just a re-release of the DQM GBC games so most people that wanted that already had it.

However, the Yangus spinoff had surprisingly mediocre sales for a game released so late in the PS2's life when it had an install base of like 20 million.

Looks like Swords may be at the top of the DQ console spinoff pyramid.

Though there are still some people debating how BAD the Wii was especially with third parties even with all the facts.

What do you expect? They're cherry picking and they're not doing a good job at it either.

Soul Eater had a not-so-hot debut too, however the game looked terrible (graphics-wsie) and you could tell how shady SE was being because the trailer was composed of maybe 85% animation. Strangely enough, no one really complained about that game flopping and it's even higher profile than Sky Crawlers. Licensed games sell depending on the license - a fact many people are ignoring here - and it looks like this wasn't the license that would get people to pick up the game on any console.
