Wow, Soriku will be disappointed, a mainline Tales of game outsold by a crappy spinoff with half the userbase.

Also, terrible bomb by Winning Eleven 2010. Konami really deserves it, I'm happy :)

Full Metal Alchemist an Toshinden also bombed terribly, but it was expected.

I'm dissapointed by ToG number, I hope is because of low shipment and it would end above the first week of ToS2



It's some very bad news what just happened to ToG in Japan.
The game got outsold by a spin-off when the Wii had less than half the userbase and also by a port on a console with less than half the userbase.

I don't think Namco will make another Tales game on the Wii. PSP or PS3 seem like the best suited platforms. The Wii is really unpredictable, that's what draws developers away.

We can only hope it has some type of legs unlikely ToS2



Yeah, but i still expect ToG to outsell symphonia's first week. But its true, its a bit of a disappointment for the game, but lets see FW numbers before judging(like last week for NSMB)



I doubt it, FFXIII releases next week.

FW sales will probably end around 145-160k.

Just out of curiosity, does that number include the ToG bundles?



TOG outsold by a one year late PS3's port,i really didn't expect this to happen.
