Yakuza -
Every Tales has had horrible legs despite releasing in November or December for the PS2. That is why I've been so hardheaded toward Soriku and Maijin.
Here are the release dates for EVERY Tales of the decade and the % of LTD that was first week:

Now, I must ask this: Of these twenty Tales games, which ones will you argue that Graces is going to perform more like, and on which premise? So far, I have yet to see a single 'Graces did fine' adherent give a single iota of data, and are only basing their arguments on heresay. If the conversation continues in that direction (me arguing with numbers, others arguing with opinion) then I humbly withdraw from this conversation.
Back from the dead, I'm afraid.
