I wonder... this being the first game based on the IP, could it have legs?

we have a hokuto game at 1M on PS2 in the data base (and a collection on wii at 10K...).

 

this will release in the west though, so it should sell pretty well overall.

(France is a definite market to release this... we have had most dragonball and saint seiya games since the NES, and "Ken le survivant" as it is called here, aired in the same years as these... and the manga released twice here (currently being rereleased), with the shangai spinoff too).

Does Shin Hokuto include the treasure box edition? If not than this is even more amazing. And wow, 55k for GOW3. That's almost what the previous 2 games did combined. Although technically if you include trilogy sales it's actually more like 90k combined.

That poor sales on 360 can cause that the sequel could be PS3 exclusive, all depend on west now.

If God of War did 40k then I don't think it'd be behind Pokemon and Mario. The numbers in the OP are looking kinda fake right now.

40k for Gow 3 is pretty good.
