Is it to early to add Crystal Bearers to the list, or wasn't expectations high enough?

These are retailer expectations, not publisher expectations. If the retailers ordered 10 copies and sold 10 copies they can't be disapointed with it.

And if this was America, they would have probably ordered about 5 copies and sold them all in day 1 and STILL complained that the game did poorly.
