well that was a bit exagerated, but how many games so far have we seen on hd consoles see a big drop after first week. Metal gear did i remember

It wasn't really that exaggerated. Games typically do see around an 80% dropoff from their opening week in Japan. It sounded like there may have been supply problems on WKC, though, so if there were and they sorted it out in time for the second week, it may hold up better.

Still, 212k first week to ~50k second week would be pretty typical.

yea but also christmas is over so i don't know how big the people going out buying games will be after spending money on presents.  And yes i know giftcards.  But how many big games were released this holiday and are out that this game has to compete with for only getting a mediocre at best score from famitsu.

 

i don't know i just feel the amount it got in the week that this preview is. How the typical drop has been for big sales first week numbers on hd systems for me not to start throwing a parade for it just yet.
