26K 1st day puts it right about in like with Chocobo Dungeon i think. Which sold something like 100K lifetime.

I'd guess they expected more. A Final Fantasy spinoff should do like 500K at least.

I mean Dirge of the Cerberus i think sold almost a million.

Dirge of Cerberus was on a console that actually did great at moving Final Fantasy games.

The PS2 also did a much better job at moving 3rd party software as well. Still sometimes does.

What you are saying is utterly stupid. Most of the 3rd party titles on the Wii are niche and would not sell much better on another console. If Final Fantasy Crystla Chronicles: The Crystal Bearer would have been an RPG it would have light up the charts. Japan has never been big on action adverture games. Secondly, I would state that 3rd parties, in Japan, need to develop for the Wii like they do the PS3 and the Xbox 360 but even their support is not good. Instead 3rd parties need to support the Wii like they do the PSP and the DS. Then 3rd party games will sell.

Let's not forget that the PS2 had a full year release in Japan before the Xbox and the Gamecube.
