Fist of the North Star had a great debut. 400k is quite impressive for any game.

And a great second week for Yakuza 4. I'm pretty sure that it'll beat out Yakuza 3's sales with ease.

Great week this week.

I dunno. Didn't they expect like 1 million in Japan?

Kratos is already dead.

Oh wait, you probably meant in Japan. Is it a surprise? God Of War is basically the epitome of the "Stupid American Game" according to the Japanese buying interests.

Yeah, I think so. But that was very unrealistic.

Still, not too many games can put up these kind of numbers in Japan nowadays. I think they should be happy with what they got.

I agree it was a ridiculious prediction, but it should be mentioned that was the expectation, for some reason. There were even people defending the number as i recall oddly.
