Hmm wasn't MH3 counted together for stand alone game and bundle with classic controler ?

Anyway move seems to be pretty low.

hmm not a huge impact by move? I mean Fifa 11 'beat' beat sketch

Other than that, everything was expected. How much were Vanquish's first day sales again?

No Sports Champions??? Is it bundled in Japan???

Because Famitsu didn't count bundled games... just stand alone copies.

I am not saying you are wrong, I don't know, but that doesn't make sense given that the game that was bundled with Move in japan is no. 9 here. Maybe Famitsu don't count games bundled with consoles? (as opposed to games bundled with peripherals).

Famitsu track bundled games with console and stand alone copies seperatelly.

MC doesn't track bundled games with console.

But I don't know how they track periferical bundles.

Wii sport, wii play, wii fit, and MK were counted. I dont see why sports champions shouldn't. I've mentioned this before, looks like move's initial impact isnt as good as it is in the west. This might change though, especially since move is going more hardcore than the wiimoe(RE and killzone). However i think it needs a more japanese oriented game

Famitsu counts seperatelly like:

Wii Sports (Bundle SKU/console): 15k
Wii Sports (Game Only): 5k

MC didn't count:

Wii Sports (Game Only): 5k

But periferical/accessories bundles I don't know.

No, Famitsu counts ALL versions of games sold and doesn't distinguish between system bundled, peripheral bundled or standalone. The bundled sales from MH3 and FFXIII were counted in with their totals, if they weren't both would've been at least 50k/100k lower. Same deal with MH3 as CCPro bundles (which accounted for like 60% of all MH3 sales). AC6 and Beautiful Katamari also had 360 bundled copies added to their normal (Platinum Hits) totals for example.

MC tracks peripheral sales with regular sales, dunno about system bundled games, though looking at their FFXIII/MH3 totals, I'd say they have to as well.
