Same here. Never expected much for it, especially after all the other fighting games that flopped in the last months. The genre simply doesn't have enough fans to support that many different series.
Street Fighter X Tekken sold 690k units combined
SoulCalibur V sold 820k combined
Persona 4 Arena sold 300k combined (though it's not an established fighting IP)

Now a comparison:
Tekken 6 PS3 - 376k Week 1 (322k USA+Europe+Japan)
Tekken 6 360 - 152k Week 1 (133k USA+Europe+Japan)
Tekken Tag 2 PS3 - 147k Week 1 (USA+Europe+Japan)
Tekken Tag 2 360 - 65k Week 1 (USA+Europe+Japan)
which makes me think that the PS3 version might barely get to 1m, and the 360 version probably below 500k.

If I were Tecmo I would wait for PS4 and Durango to release Tekken X Street Fighter.
