ToG :/ It did beat out DotNW though. SW3 had a decent hold so I hope ToG is the same. It'll sell more over here though. And no, this won't be the last Tales Wii seeing as how they can easily use the same resources as ToG for cheap. The same way the OK sales of DS Tales didn't mean the end of DS Tales, etc. But MW2 beating it is sad...MW2 is gonna end up outselling the other Tales this gen too. Time for Namco to cut down on releases, this is the 4th Tales this year. There's a rumor they're going for biannual release though. Being right before FF XIII doesn't help either.
Wow at Wii HW and NSMB. Exceed my expectations.

There's a major difference between Wii Tales (Graces), and DS Tales (Hearts), though. The cost difference is likely enormous, I mean, just look at how great Tales of Graces looks...
Our only real hope is if it somehow does great in the west, or if it manages to grow legs in Japan. I'd love for that to happen, but I highly doubt it will. (... still hoping for it)
I'm not saying this is the last Tales on the Wii, but I doubt the quality will match Graces, from what I've seen of the game.
As for the KH, DQ on Wii comment, seriously? Tales is nothing like a Disney or Dragon Quest caliber game, have we forgotten about MH3 so soon? (not going into PSP MH vs home console MH, that's been done a million times)

Yeah, this is pretty much how I feel too. Sales are fine, but for the series to grow and stay on Wii it'll probably have to do more than fine. That said, I'm not going to judge a game off of only first week sales.
And much like c0rd, I am hoping for both strong legs in Japan as well as strong sales overseas, though things do look a tad grim.
