You're just missig everything.

Research about Suda's games.  Those number are a record for him. He never sold that amount in such a short period. No one here expects that title to pass 500k. If it reaches 400k already would be unbelievable.

100k for Suda is amazing, he probably is very happy. 

On the other hand, most sony fans where expecting tha Rachet would a million seller from the start, but by now it's still not. 

I would/will be fucking happy if No More Heroes cracks 1 million... its a long way, but it aint impossible.

I definitely want to see more from Suda 51(Goichi), if the man is the right seat with a greatly creative partner, then he'll definitely accomplish some awesome things.

Word. Also - "sandbox games" != genre. Fer serious - it's an aspect of a game, not the core of it. And GTA did not invent that particular aspect of gaming. Hi every PC RPG ever! How's it feel to be completely ignored? Elite? Freelancer? How you kids doing?

The civil way to put it is: this is already the best selling game of Suda 51's career, in both Japan and America now, including Killer 7 on the much-bigger-install-base-and-supposedly-more-hardcore PS2. By the end of its lifespan, expect this to be by far his best selling title (again, it has already achieved that goal in Japan and America, I'm just stating that it's going to stretch that title considerably further).

So yes, it's very good. Keep in mind that I hate Suda 51 games, by the way.

Not that bad :) Maybe 300 k in the US and the same for the EU ? With a bit of luck this could become a 600k seller lifetime :)

If it can keep it up, then it can maybe get to 250k in North America alone in not too long. I've been thinking of picking up the game, but I'm in Japan, so it would be under those numbers, but I feel kinda bad that I've been in Japan, but the games I've gotten have all been or will be available in other markets too. Maybe after getting a game or two only available in Japan will I pick it up.

NMH would sell great on t-shirts in hot topic and stores like that, if they could somehow tap that market with this game those kids would be all over it    

 also is there anywhere i can buy real t-shirts like travis has in the game... i might be interrested in having some made up... like the grasshopper logo would be bad ass. nerely every shirt would be

Man MrStick, I actually expected more of you =\

I'm quite happy to recognise when a game does well on your preferred console and admit that the 360 was the right console for it, why can't you be happy to admit that NMH has done well for what it is and is on the right console rather than going 'It would have sold more on the X360!'.

Its Crazzyman type stuff =\

100K in 3 weeks for a Suda game is good no questions about it. Hopefully this will have some legs and Europe will pull some ZDub action and buy it as well. If it crosses the 500K milestone, I will be very happy.
