Why is anyone surprised? It was released by Sega. That's sales poison.

OMG IS THIS PROOF PS3 CAN'T SELL GAMES!!! FAIL.

THERE ISN'T A MARKET FOR GAMES ON THE PS3, NINTENDO OWNERS WOULD APPRECIATE GAMES MORE.



/end sarcasm.


Hopefully this puts a stop to single console owning idiots bashing other consoles about WEEK 1 sales of a game because they don't own that system.


It is sad the game has only sold this much, but hey it might get better.

ill buy it next month

I will announce here that, just as I happen to be allergic to fanboyism, I must not have a good reaction to hype.

After see all the hype on how awesome Valkyria Chronicles is supposed to be, and told I had to try the demo, I did, with the idea of possibly getting the game if I liked the demo. Well, after playing the demo, I am seriously wondering why I would want to spend $60 for it. To me, it isn't all that. It is cool, but NO WAY does it seem to be worth that. Drop it to $40 and I would consider it more, but not at $60. And this may be more out of a feeling of guilt that I need to back Sega, and that it is a said "innovative" title which deserves to sell a lot so we can get more.

The problem here is all this hype. You set the bar WAY high for me when you make it out to be all that, "and a bag of chips". I will give credit where credit is due here and say that I like the artistic style. It is a fresh take on cell shading.

Before you say it may not be my type of game, I like wargames. I also like an occasional RPG. I personally am not a fan of the jump to 3D view to move units. If I am doing a wargame, I want to see my units on the board, not zoom into 3D (mouse eye) view.

^^Don't listen to the PS3 fanboys hyping this game, they are only hyping it because it's an exclusive. If it wasn't an exclusive, they wouldn't care about the game so much.

Listen to the Sega fanboy's, like me, and buy it because it's made by Sega and it's awesome. ~_n

Valkyria Chronicles and Yakuza 3, buy them!!!

at this point i actually want it to go to the 360 so it could get more sales... this game is amazing

lol pboy... one thread made by a user to talk about this game = ps3 exclusive hype? most of the hype comes from people playing it and loving it not because its ps3 exclusive.

You shouldn't be worried. Did you see the leaked NPD's?

74k sounds really good when you think games like SMT: Nocturne sold 60k LTD in the states. Persona 4 did just 123k. The Yakuza games for the ps2 topped at 50k. Etc...

Frankly, 74k looks like middle-of-the-pack for your average japanese-centric game in the states.

LOL at that statement. You buy games, because you want enjoy them, not because of your console bias, your logic is really flawed.

Anyway, demo, i didn't found it amazing either. but someone on vgchartz made me buy it, and i was blown away by full version, i wouldn't judge the game by the demo.

I would buy it if I had the money. God I'm broke.
