Kinda miss the old days... didn't have as many people to give their silly opinions.
Personally, over 700,000 in 9 days ain't bad. We all knew it was going to drop off heavily after the first week. I had actually thought it would have dropped to under 100,000 but it seems it was able to hold up. So 580,000 to 140,000 isn't bad. Already doing a hell of a lot better than the PS2 ones and at least building off the popularity that the PSP games made it out to be. 280,000 left to go to reach a million in Japan, I don't think it should have to many issues getting that. Although it could fall short if it isn't seen as a big title on Wii later in the year and doesn't get holiday boosts but we'll see. At the least though we should see 900,000.
My biggest surprise is Tales of VS. I'm actually surprised so many people bought that... and then the question of why. Had all these other actual Tales RPGs and they bought a Tales Fighter. PSP crowd there sure is weird. Very disappointed by Blood of Bahamut and I'm sure SE is as well but hey trying to compete with their own DQIX is never a good idea.
What I really want to see is how hardware stood up.
