Hmmm. So Zettai heroes didn't bomb after all.
[PSP] Absolute Hero Modding Project (NIS) 28,500 / 28,500 / 74% NEW

It did.  Well, it could've been worse, but rest assured this was well below that NIS needed.  It's the worst selling Team Disgaea game debut ever actually.


How'd it bomb? It performed in the range they were expecting it to, it's not like they shipped 200,000 and the sale through was 20%.

NIS doesn't decide shipment orders, retailers do.  And honestly, 74% isn't even that great a sellthrough on a low run title, it's means retail was right in the low orders and it likely wouldn't have done much better with more stock anyway.

And it should be emphasized, this was from NIS' main team, the Disgaea team.  This isn't a System Prisma port or Hitmaker shovelware, it's Team Disgaea. And it's their worst seller ever since originally nabbing some success with Disgaea, 1st week comparisons...
