| Demotruk said: Of course it's strong sales, but it was also extremely front loaded, indicating that it didn't quite live up to the hype. If more people were satisfied by it and spreading their enthusiasm we'd see a longer tail. Punch Out! was also heavily pushed by Nintendo the same time last year, but that didn't manage great numbers. |
Umm... I wouldn't call 560k first week (beginning August 2009) and then going on to sell 1 million as "extremely front loaded". 5 months later and it's still selling regularly around 3k per week, which is more than most games in Japan do after a few weeks.
