Star Ocean 3: 222,986 units in 30 days in September.
Star Ocean 4: <70,000 units in 5-6 days in February

the first 30 days for so4 look as if it will be 130k. the thing im wondering about though is did npd track 1 day for so3 in august or include i in sept. if they counted it for sep. then the first 30 days would be a fair comparison is 1 days of sales were in august then comparatively speaking oso4 would be lower than 130k

It looks like NPD counted the game as a September release:
