Poor numbers for Vanquish.

Good for Naruto.

And Great for FIFA 11 (FIFA 11 fist day > FIFA 10 fist week).


I dont think so. Good numbers for a new IP.

Bayonetta was a new IP = 90k fist day on PS3 and just 205k LTD.

So no... 40k is bad.

Edit -  PS3 received the worst version of Bayonetta.

Bayonetta received a perfect score from Famitsu...

Vanquish numbers are ok.

360 version only.

And? The game still had more buzz than Vanquish and people who didn't care about the graphics and the frame rate issues still bought the PS3 version and probably loved it just as much as if they would have played the 360 version.

Great numbers for Naruto. No Move figures?

Several Japanese Retailer blogs are reporting MOVE is a total sellout

Really? That's strange because every store I went to had stock of it. I just did a quick check online as well and the store's I looked at also had all the move stuff in stock...

I'm curious as to how well the Super Mario Collection sold. I picked up my copy this past Friday.

Neo-Gaf Japanese users are saying that

really?in amazon.jp,MOVE never climb to top 10 and out of stock

Wow, and vanquish PS3 is at position 32 and sold 40k first day with means the move bundle is at 12 so it probably sold about 100k first day then, huh? Oh wait and Naruto is at 21 and sold 70k....wow PS Move bundle at 12 on amazon japan confirmed to have sold over 100k first day!!!!

Great info!!!!!!



Vanquish numbers are disappointing

I agree that the position when compared to other positions says nothing, but the fact that it is not out of stock in Amazon nor is it rising any further in the ranks (it has been showing for hours with a red down arrow) supports the possibility that there is no general "out of stock" situation. If there were, it should have either been out of stock in Amazon as well or on the way up due to people finding it only at Amazon. That said, there could be some stores where it is out of stock.

Well going out of stock is dependent upon allocation of resources combined with volume. So by something going out of stock it doesnt necessarily mean its selling like gangbusters. But i find it very fathomable that retail chains with their overhead and slimmer margins would perhaps order less. And from what ive gathered based on JP amazon it is even more skewed in terms of its top lists to B&M sales than in other places. So in summery its pretty much just completely irrelavent.



Amazon doesn't prove anything. However neither does 'I heard it was out of stock from some people on Neogaf'. It's probably best just to wait until we get solid information before drawing conclusions.



really anxious to see how MOVE do in Japan



What's so disappointing about Vanquish? It's a straight up third person shooter. No non-Resident Evil game is ever gonna do better than that in Japan.



wow naruto impressive!!

So mario didnt break 1k :P
