Demon's Souls. It was a game that was never even going to release in america and now it is steadying out at 25ish k per week. Will surely hit 350-450k in america.



I'd say Lost Odyssey was surprising in that the America sales are greater than the Japan sales.



themanwithnoname's law: As an America's sales or NPD thread grows longer, the probabilty of the comment "America = World" [sarcasticly] being made approaches 1.

Probably Demon's Souls. i didn't think it will sell anything at all.

Valkyria Chronicles hands down

NA sales surpassed japan sales (and japan had all the advertisement and an anime show)

Borderlands and Demon Souls are the most recent.

 

There have been plenty over the years though



demon souls:P it might outsell tekken next week:P



Borderlands and Demon's Souls

Brutal Legend could also count because it is a Time Schafer game which didn't have any hype at all before this one.



Here ya go, surprise hits in America
