Really disappointed in Trusty Bell's figures. They should be higher for a quality RPG. At least the 360 got a hardware boost - the PS3 got nothing, but at least Sony was saved the indignation of being outsold by the 360. (NGS sales around expectations).
The top 10 says it all - all Wii & DS. Next week, both NGS & Trusty Bell will be out of the top 10 - and business will return to normal. Itadki (sp)? Streets should do really well.

I think everyone is seriously underestimating DQ:S. Its a really original game, with a huge license - on a new/cheap console. If it gets terrible Famitsu scores (say 28/40) it will fall off quickly... but if it gets a decent score (i.e. 35/40+) it might just be the next big thing.
I can't imagine too many kids in Japan that wouldn't want to own DQ:S!

Starting to feel sorry for EG5. Up against Zelda, DQ:S and more. It may sell a few units, but its going to be swamped big time.
