Hmm. I'm not too sure of sell out articles. It's a possibility, but I wish I could read Japanese and see what people are saying in the comments.

*ahem* If anyone could be so kind.

From those pictures, i am pretty sure most stores sold out the Limited Edition and some stores still have the Standard Edition left for sale.

This is in line with the supply situation at Amazon.com.jp (LE sold out, SE among Top 10).

Keep in mind that these pictues were taken before the weekend.

So I expect the sale number for the debut week is around 30,000 copies (LE 5500 (sold out) + SE 24,500 (85% sell through)).

A lot of garbage but their are some interessant comments. Like fans of the series who are very happy that it went 3D.

Most interesting comment was this one:

'Retailers are always expecting that games will sell not that much on PS3 because the PS3 doesn't sell well. That's why we see those little shipments. 

And also some comments of some people who are getting desperate because they can't find the game.

Hard to read all the stuff.

 

Oh yeah someone mentions aswell the development consts are 20 billion yen. (not sure where he got the stuff).

Hmm, that's good to hear. I can't wait for it get here.

@ waron

Oh that's nothing. If Agarest Senki is coming to the West, this can.

星= stars

So, pretty well

Thanks a lot, can you kindly put Demons Soul rating along side it too. I think both of these two games are going to have identical sales. 

Let see

Done, I edited my post

Let see

Demon's Souls User Rating from Amazon.com.jp

5 Star: 478, 4 Star: 72, 3 Star: 34, 2 Star: 13, 1 Star: 7 (Total 604 users; Average 4.5 Star)

White Knight Chronicles

5 Star: 16, 4 Star: 27, 3 Star: 30, 2 Star: 31, 1 Star: 22 (Total 126 users; Average 3 Star)

Valkyria Chronicles

5 Star: 119, 4 Star: 39, 3 Star: 9, 2 Star: 8, 1 Star: 1 (Total 176 users; Average 4.25 Star)

The ratings for DS and VC are very impressive and let me tell you, Japanese gamers are VERY CRITICAL.  That's why these games has very long legs.

 

Edit: didn't see zexen_lowe edited his post.

Great. I hope it brings NIS a pretty penny or two.
