I found the Famitsu numbers for Minna no Golf Portable :

400K LTD ( in Japan ) and 66K first week ( but like I said previously it was a launch title so it didn't enjoy the large userbase of PSP of nowadays )

No More Heroes sales shouldn't surprise anyone because it doesn't match japaneese gaming tastes in any way ...

 



NMH deserves better



LOST ODDESEY is ATROCIOUS!

anyways

That weird golf game did bad....

NMH & Uncharted don''t appeal to japan so that was excpected



Supporter of

 SONY & Nintendo

 Consoles owned - SNES, N64, PS, GC, PS2, PSP, PS3

 I DO NOT support Xbox

My prediction for YEARS END:

WII - 18.3 Million

Xbox 360 - 15 Million

Playstation 3 - 8.5 Million

None of those are blockbusters but Tales is solid, NMH is not a Japan friendly game



psn- tokila

add me, the more the merrier.

Yeah , HSG was allways a good performer for Sony ... its like Pokemon : its casual in style , but can be extremly complex :)

 Mingol is one of the biggest franchises for Sony in Japan. If it only hits ~70k in the first week that's not really very good. I'm starting to think that the only software that has a chance to do well on the PSP are exclusives. Mingol on the PSP is already superceded by the PS3 version so it's not a true exclusive like FF:CC or MH2. We will see.
