This is the PEAK WEEK for Japan as new years is celebrated there hugely!

So SALES will be UP all around.....so WKC will seell definetely over 80K & if sales are up overall I have a FIRM belief it WILL sell 90K + this week

This makes it the best 2nd week for a PS3 game ever in Japan + it ZOOMS past Tales Of Symphonia DOTNW on Wii

& is within hitting range of TOS for the Gamecube

Well done Level 5! (I dint expect this after the famitsu review + it being a new unknown IP n all!!!!)

i hope you're right !!!! WKC deserves it,,, but its better to wait for the real numbers before jumping to conclusions !

ok but I don't see what could possibly be wrong in my calculations as we have no NEW release to skew up the "numbers" or anything this week in Japan

Just wait and see. That's always the best thing to do. ;)

No it's not the biggest week of the year. Sales aren't way down like europe and NA but just look at the previous years, the SW sales goes down after christmas by a bit, preliminary data also said software was down slightly.

It's good, but comparing it to ToS:KoR is stupid.
These two are not even in the same league budget wise.
WKC better sell well so it can at least get its cost back, and so that we have the sequel, at least.

@ookaze

why would you want a sequel

its a crappy game....acc famitsu & apprntly no-one in japan likes it.

I am just happy as now SO4 & TOV will come to PS3...well should

the reviews were mixed, some good ones too.  You should actually play a game before passing judgement if it's crappy or not.

Hmm, if only mgs4 had had a great second week, it would be laughing

If WKC is a crappy game, what can you call TLR??? XD

and I doubt no one in Japan likes it since FFXII was highly praised there, fans would also like this.
