Bets with Conegamer:

Pandora's Tower will have an opening week of less than 37k in Japan. (Won!)
Pandora's Tower will sell less than 100k lifetime in Japan.
Stakes: 1 week of avatar control for each one.

Pretty good Nintendo numbers there. Up loads on last month.

However they are down on last novembers numbers which were

But not by much so still holding in there.

So we now have Nintendo and Microsoft saying their numbers. Time for Sony to step up and tell us theirs. If you don't hear from them then you would have to think it could be a bit bad. But someone will leak them anyway cough pachter cough ;)
