	Boneitis posted 03/11/2009, 05:26 I wasn't aware of this games existence. From sales I don't think other people were aware either. Did Ubisoft advertise at all? Message \| Report
	dark_gh0st_b0y posted 30/10/2009, 09:58 deserves much more should have sold in Europe, i've seen in in almost every store Message \| Report
	whacker41 posted 30/10/2009, 06:41 Yeah, combined with sales of the psp version, 120k-140k should be profitable. Message \| Report
	woopah posted 26/10/2009, 03:31 120k are we thinking its profitable? Message \| Report
	Kenology posted 25/09/2009, 07:43 This game deserves much better. Message \| Report

	Kenology posted 27/07/2009, 06:18 This game is awesome! Message \| Report
	DOLBYdigital posted 06/04/2009, 01:46 Shadow mode is even harder. Swing the wiimote at the level select screen and get ready for more enemies and different level layouts :) Message \| Report
	J-Favs posted 14/03/2009, 01:44 This game is awesome but hard, seriously anyone who likes ninjas get this. Message \| Report
	intro94 posted 12/03/2009, 07:40 30k its a decent startup for Japan, maybe 70kish in US might get this to 100k soon Message \| Report
	famousringo posted 18/02/2009, 09:05 The music really adds a lot to this game. Waiting patiently for an enemy to let his guard down doesn't seem onerous at all when you have a kickass soundtrack to enjoy while you wait. Message \| Report

	TheConduit posted 12/02/2009, 11:37 Hardcore coming to the Wii Message \| Report
	Voltaire posted 12/02/2009, 02:17 Good game. Great music, great Wii graphics, ok controls. Overall its a pretty good game, if you like stealth. Id go with a 7.5-8.5 Message \| Report
	DOLBYdigital posted 10/02/2009, 02:32 Very solid stealth action game that really returns Tenchu to form. It is made by Acquire, which made the first 2 and are still the best. The music is great just like all other Tenchu games, the controls are solid, and the game is rather long with good replay value. Also in case you didn't know there is a 'Shadow Mode' for every level after you beat it. Just shake the wiimote at the level select screen and get ready for much harder levels with more enemies and different routes! Great game if you like stealth or ninjas :) Message \| Report
	BoneArk posted 09/02/2009, 04:57 Where is the advertising for this game? WTF Ubi! Message \| Report
	GhaudePhaede010 posted 09/02/2009, 04:06 This game is excellent. Nobody gives the soundtrack enough credit. The game is just master class in thee areas of design, music/sound, pace, and Wii graphics. I have only played the first Tenchu on Playstation so I was not even much a fan of the series. This game is awesome. Message \| Report
	dark_gh0st_b0y posted 09/02/2009, 02:34 this game is AMAZING!! BUY NOW Message \| Report
	naruto3336 posted 08/02/2009, 03:49 Im guessing this will get an opening week of 50-60k in america. Then it will drop to 40-50. If this game makes around 500k it will be a hit and ubisoft will make sequels which they have already announced. 2 sequels. Message \| Report
	fmc83 posted 05/02/2009, 02:45 I loved the very 1st one, still play it from time to time: This is a must get for me Message \| Report

	DOLBYdigital posted 18/01/2009, 10:15 All I have to say is I loved the first couple Tenchu's and since this is made by the devs who made the first ones, I am getting it. This is one of my few weaknesses... ninjas ;) Message \| Report

	hunter_alien posted 08/12/2008, 11:43 So this is why a PSP version is coming... Message \| Report
	AJM Ruler posted 12/11/2008, 10:18 Actually Tenchu Z on the 360 sold about the same as the Wii, but Wii is only in 3 weeks where as Z 20K lifetime in Japan. I think 4 will sell pretty good in Americas if promoted properly. Message \| Report
	arsenal009 posted 30/10/2008, 03:11 Isn't tecmo either the developer or publisher? Message \| Report
	Chrizum posted 30/10/2008, 12:56 If both 2nd and 3rd week fall below 10k, then I'd call if a flop. For now, I'm taking the wait & see approach... Message \| Report
