Multiple Naruto games sold 400k on gamecube, but that was when the anime was at its peak in Japan. Don't really expect much from them anymore. |
So the Wii game was released in February, and the PS3 game is going to be released in January. Both slow months in other regions, although they happen to actually be fairly large months in Japan. The PS3 version of Naruto has already sold half a million worldwide, and Japan should add 100k (as I predicted). Given the lower userbase of the PS3, that seems like growth in the series (especially given the Wii Naruto game hitting a million). I may not be as knowledgeable about Naruto as some people, but I'm pretty sure the manga is at its climax right now. It would definitely boost sales.
