@stefan: Apparently, many of those games are bad enough for NoA not wanting to publish them in the USA. S&P2 is a very good game, but it has bombed badly. Quality matter very little. FFCC:CB bombed, Super Robot Wars bombed, SD Gundam bombed, Disaster bombed, Trace Memory bombed, Takt of Magic bombed, Bleach vs Crusade bombed, Fragile bombed, ARF and Muramasa underperformed. Japanese gamers actually care little if the game is good or not, the Wii is dying there, no SW is being bought at all save for the rare big 1st party game or big franchises.
This game will be no different. Nintendo has published a game by Sandlot on the DS too, and it didn't sell well. Doesn't matter who publishes it.

Bets with Conegamer:
Pandora's Tower will have an opening week of less than 37k in Japan. (Won!)
Pandora's Tower will sell less than 100k lifetime in Japan.
Stakes: 1 week of avatar control for each one.
