We'll see next week. According to our first shipment data (it was 180k on first day according to first day sales news post), and it hasn't even sold through that.

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

So this also supports that ToS was constrained.If it sell more or the same next week then sales were constrained by limited supply.

It's better to wait next week to have a good perspective about TOS2, BTW too bad at Ratchet and Clank at 26, Japan doesn't love this series.

I thought the data said 170,000 was the first shipment size.

because a PSP port didn't sell well? Let's be serious here, Japanese never liked R&C.

Let's not kid ourself, Why don't you show your prediction for this game LT and let's rid of this ridicule.

200k or so. Still, while I recall from our last discussion that your grasp of grammar is...unique...I'd like you to re-examine my original post.

"Still, I'm skeptical: I don't think Symphonia's going to have the legs of a Mario Kart or Wii Fit. I'd like to be wrong, though."

had to resort to that, no? ;)

I suppose it's hard to defend a game that will sell 200K LT (according to even yourself). To bring Wiifit and Mario Kart's leg into this discuss is purely insulting to those two.

All banter aside, I really don't have high hopes for a lot of titles on any console in Japan. Their tastes have shifted dramatically this generation, and they just don't seem to be as interested in the old stuff as we are. Which is sad, in a way, but it's also creating new things that I am interested in, so overall I suppose it's a fair trade.
