The Wii boost was unexpected and unexplainable IMO. Also, Disgaea 3 debuted at a lowly 69th on the charts, so quite possibly below 1,000 units. Frrom what people were saying, I thought it was supposed to be a system-seller...

You thought wrong. I saw no hype for this game and I saw no one expecting this to be a system seller, but considering sales for Vita actually increased a bit this week, I guess it was a system-seller!
