So it's 1 million shipped (should be very close to sold) in 6 days. Week one was 4 days and about 900k sold. That means Week 2 will see about 200-250k.

...........Where's my Breath of Fire 6, Capcom?

Screw Monster Hunter, 'Fire is where it's at.



Back from the dead, I'm afraid.

ioi is pretty spot on with the 850K software number. Credit is given when due. Good job.

Not really surprised, MK games on PSP have HUGE legs. This is one game that really shows how online play can do to an otherwise slightly above average game.



Soriku (Feb 10/08): In 5 years the PS3/360 will be dead.

KH3 bet: "If KH3 comes to Wii exclusive, I will take a 1 month of sig/avatar by otheres open a thread apologize and praise you guys' brilliance." http://vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?start=50&id=18379

Yeah , ad-hoc gaming is really fun :) Especially if you have a couple of PSP owning fans :)

 With awesome legs like MHP2 had , and more time on the market ( ~2 years ) the game could make a solid 2.5 million copyes in Japan LT , but I doubt it :?
