Has a 3rd place console ever done these things before?


Nintendo Gamecube?

Not quite.

Interesting to note: This is the highest sales week for the PS3 since it launched. Christmas should be even higher.

I think he was talking software, not hardware.

Take a look at the title of this thread. We're talking about software here.



Valkyria Chronicles is in stock somewhere in the UK! =O

ShopTo, £25.

Demon's Souls is dong great. Sony must be silly for not publishing the game here and instead letting Atlus get it. Atlus have been gaining momentum since Persona 3 and its really going. I wouldn't be suprised if this game got atleast close to million copies sold. Valkyria Chronicles...not sure.

It's probably FROM's biggest (and most unexpected) hit since Chromehounds.  Is SCEE publishing it themselves?  If so, I definitely think it could crack a million worldwide.

Opening month: 33k (VGC has 53k for the same period)

ltd through Jan 2009: 74k (VGC has 98k for the same period)

But VGC is America and NPD is US only, right?



was the game bundled??? a spike like that is very interesting indeed xD
I just hope Atlus try to release Demon's Souls to Europe...
Importing is a pain in the arse.

Yes, but Canada couldn't account for the difference in figures.  It's roughly only 8% of the US market and Valkyria was even a limited release there (Blockbuster and EB were the only major chains to carry it).  There was no Mexican/Central American release either iirc.

Find a site and order it. Go to the postal office.

Real hard, eh?

But hey, keep hoping for a EU release.
