Is that the new picross? I've been waiting.

 

Yeah, new Picross. Previous Picross sold nearly 65,000 week one, this one will be lucky to sell 1/3 of that.

Now if Sony cut that price...

Nice for PS3 again, maybe it can maintain in 30k this week, and reach 3 million the same time as the 360 reaches 1 mil.

If games like these are keeping the PS3 doing good in Japan, then image how the FF 13 demo is gonna do? Let alone the actual game which is supposed to hit later this year.

is this good number for Orochi game? can anybody post past Orochi game numebrs for previous generation or PS3..?

 

Much better than expected, it might even come close to/or outsell the PSP ones (LTD).

 

 It was reasonably big game on PS2.. sold around 400k first week in Japan on PS2... so seems like the series has sort of dead now... but with PS3 hitting over 100k first week... it is not a bad debut... but with poor legs on almost all PS3 games in Japan it is not going to have much sales after first week..

Only if PS3 price is reduced i think the games could start having better legs on PS3...

Another week of Sony-domination. Nintendo really needs to step its game up.



Not a 360 fanboy, just a PS3 fanboy hater that likes putting them in their place ^.^

well ps3 selling double than the wii and even costing double it's quite interesting.
all thanks to yakuza 3, and resident evil 5

Considering Musou Orochi Z is just Warriors Orochi 1 and 2, with some new stuff added and made for the PS3 (they didn't really do much to enhance the graphics to PS3 standards), it's a pretty good debut.

Good sales for Musou Orochi Z. Unfortunately, that's the last PS3 game to be released for quite a while in Japan :(
