01. [PS2] SD Gundam Generation Wars (Bandai Namco) - 196,000
02. [PSP] Tales of Versus (Bandai Namco) - 153,000
03. [WII] Monster Hunter 3 (tri~) (Capcom) - 138,000
04. [NDS] Dragon Quest IX (Square Enix)
05. [NDS] Tomodachi Collection (Nintendo)
06. [WII] Wii Sports Resort (Nintendo)
07. [PS2] Kamen Rider (Bandai Namco) - 53,000
08. [360] Magna Carta 2 (Bandai Namco) - 38,000
09. [PS2] Winning Eleven: Club Championship (Konami) - 35,000
10. [NDS] Tingle (Nintendo) - 33,000

Out of Top 10 debuts:

[WII] SD Gundam G Generation Wars (Bandai Namco) - 33,000
[NDS] Blood of Bahamut (Square Enix) - 32,000

http://www.famitsu.com/game/rank/sokuho/1226642_1796.html

Excellent performance by PS2 version of SD Gundam Generation Wars, while the Wii rev surprisingly fails to even make the Top 10.

Very good performance for TALES OF VERSUS after a slowish first day, somewhat surprising as Tales games usually don't have legs.

TALES OF VERSUS has better first week than:

- [WII] Tales of Symphonia 2 (151k)
- [NDS] Tales of Hearts (141k)
- [PSP] Tales of The World: Radiant Mythology (127k)
- [NDS] Tales of Innocence (106k)
- [360]Tales of Vesperia (101k)
- [NDS]Tales of Tempest (83k)

Will be updated with more numbers as (and when) they arrive.

Tales of VS had 89k for the first day. MH3 numbers are around 150k or so me thinks.

Possibly even lower, Tales games rarely double (or come close to doubling) their first day performance.

[PSP] Tales of Versus (Bandai Namco) - 153,000

Good performance by Tales of VS after a slow first day! Bit strange, as I mentioned earlier in this thread, Tales games usually don't have legs.
