Why is so hard to believe Love Plus came in third?

Because according to Media Create, the last entry opened at [NDS] Love Plus + (Konami) - 84.364

Also, the game came out on tuesday (usually games come out on thursday), so it had two extra days to sell. I can't see Binary Domain and TR Final Fantasy doing more than 80k. So that's why I'm expecting a higher position for New Love Plus.

However, I've read that the game has a lot of bugs, so maybe this is affecting sales.

Hmm, interesting, I guess we will find out wednesday.

With regards to love plus don't forget that the points and rankings are for the normal edition only and there are in fact 9 limited edition bundles of the game which although each one might not have sold much when added together will probably be a fairly hefty number

WOW! 9 games of namco-Bandai on the chart... I haven´t notice that until now... And SEGA seems to do it fine too...

Will One Piece be the greatest hit on first half of this year?

I feel kinda stupid for asking this but do pts = pre-orders?

Ussually 1pt less than 1k of unit solds... it depend of the game.. I see this chart more as "Buy intentions from customers" than pre-ordered units.. Some games make 1pt=1k, some more.. some less...I think Not knowing exactly is what make fun the predictions XD

Ah ok fair enough, I thought it would be something like that.  I love how they update it daily so you can see how new trailers/announcements have an impact on people wanting to buy it.
