and I just looked up some Grasshopper sales. Killer is Dead will pass No More Heroes 1, 2, Shadows of the Damned, and Killer 7 next week. So, it didn't bomb as badly as I thought.

This is only based on Famitsu's reports of the games. There are other regions where they were released. I'd say that the NMH master is probably the only one that did relatively well along with Lolipop Chainsaw.

And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,
Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."

...have ANY of these turned a profit? The current-gen ones, in particular.

Lollipop Chainsaw was a fair success worldwide. It shipped 700k copies as of August 2012 (2 months after release). It probably had new shipments since.

Having played the game I would be really surprised if that's not enough to make a profit. Grasshopper games are usually pretty short of length and content and they're not technically amazing.

Killer is Dead isn't published by GungHo (their next game will) so we haven't seen how much the acquisition will benefit Grasshopper.
