Monster Hunter Portable 2 has done amazingly well, but I wonder how well it is going to do over time; the Japaneese market is pretty unique in that a high demand game can sell 70% (or more) of its total sales in its first week. Fire Emblem's performance is not too surprising ... For awhile I thought Nintendo dropped the ball with this series (and earthbound); durring the N64 generation lots of Nintendo fans desperately wanted RPGs and Nintendo had the IP necessary to release a good RPG every year.
