[Edit: Written before the releases of the charts :
The Dutch charts have not been posted yet, but I prefer to create the thread right now before I forget about it.
Regarding "Little King's Story" sales, I am really pessimistic, at least regarding France. Like for previous Rising Star Games titles, the game is not distributed by every retailers. After a quick visit this friday afternoon, it was available at Micromania and GAME, but not at the FNAC or Virgin - and most certainly not at the big supermarket (Carrefour, Leclerc and co). Though I don't exactly know the market share of each of these brands, that's potentially a lost of significant visibility and sales. But maybe this is specific to France ?]
