RE Revelations have sold 122k

BUT

it seems joystiq effed up the wording there..the 122k is for LTD for the game..so around 30k in march?

also binary domain has done 20k

 

what do you guys think about these numbers? For a RE game those numbers sound horrible imo...Binary BomBain is in the same boat...i mean 20k? ffs. Did anyone here play it to know if its a good game or not? Badgenome played it i think

the first RE on handheld, so i didnt expect to hit a million, specially on the  west. Also capcom didnt really advertise it and i dont think it cost them alot. Ffr its first attempt on a handelh i would say decent, not great tough. Will be hard tomove their alredy stablished fanbase on homeconsoles to a portable. Possible yes? but will need long time work, like with the MH franchise.

small problem. This is not the first portable RE game. Heck it's not the first even on the 3ds

RE franchise is huge. Sales for that horrible (user feedback I read) shows that. These are horrible sales.

I hope we are not talking about mercenaries. But im curious what other re on portables exist?

Also the fanabse its huge on home consoles, ot portables, dont expect suddenly change on them.

well mercs was the other 3ds game yes. I believe there was a RE for ds a few years back :S Can't remember the name

Yeah I'm not saying sales should be even comparable to console titles...but 122k is abysmall compared to millions it sells on consoles. This game is one of the biggest games from a 3rd party dev for the 3ds and had the hype train going strong from the day 3ds was revealed. I can't imagine why capcom would be happy with these sales.
