The 2 previous Castlevania on DS sold around 16k in their first week in Japan. So 14k in its first day for Order of Ecclesia is actually very good.
And I see it's published by Nintendo, but, what's 'Girls Mode' ?

In that case, Castevania is alright, but Tenchu 4 is not.

Leatherhat on July 6th, 2012 3pm. Vita sales:"3 mil for COD 2 mil for AC. Maybe more. "  thehusbo on July 6th, 2012 5pm. Vita sales:"5 mil for COD 2.2 mil for AC."

Dang, the ps2 still gets tons of releases.



Seneque has this right. Castlevania hasn't been big in Japan for a long, long time. This is the best launch it's had in years. Tenchu, though, not so much. This is definitely well below expectations.

Tenchu didn't do well at all. Maybe that's why there were rumors of a PSP port.

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

Japanese third-party games sell extremely bad on Wii. (No advertising + no casual + not published by Nintendo = bombed percentage 90%)



tenchu 4?!!??!!O_o
i expected much much more... very disappointing



I am more interested about how OoE will do here(in the NA) since Castlevania is actually pretty popular here. I believe PoR sold about 300K+ in the US alone. The last Castlevania game that had decent sales in Japan was SotN and even that game didn't sell THAT great there

low sales of castlevania, too bad, I hope the data is incomplete

Por and DoS had first week sales of 16k and 15k respectively, OoE is going fantastically by comparison with 14k on the first day
