Yeeeahh its always like that with fans. Always choosing sides that best fit their argument. I've never liked comparing exclusive sales to multi-plat sales. But thats just me :p

Yes, it unfortunately happen, seems the "hardcore" gamerz are more willing to brag on forums instead of actually play the game. At the end, that's all matter, have fun with the game you like

But we must first concentrate ourselves on the way to entertain people, for video games to live. Else, it's a world where sales representative will win, which has as effect to kill creativity. I want to say to the creators all around the world:"Courage, Dare!". Shigeru Miyamoto.

These numbers are fake. Actual Japan sales are double that.

It's possible the reviews caused a lot of people to pass on this game. I know it did for me... It's possible sales could be strong but spread out over the holidays instead of great sales week 1 and weaker sales for the month following.

Don't believe in reviews, play first and make your own impressions.
