I broke down and ordered this from ncsx. The asian version has english text and voice acting, so it's very import friendly. Can't wait to get my ass kicked.

Terrible first week? This game had a low budget and very little anticipation, it's sales up to this point have already shattered many LTD expectations.

@ Aj

Remember, legs aren't based on how many games are sold on a weekly basis, but the *percentage* sold compared to its debut and subsequent weeks.

With that criteria, Demon's Souls is doing an incredible job thus far, especially for such a low-budget and minimally anticipated game.

When in the name of God, is this game going to be released in other regions? I don't even have a PS3, but this game looks great and you other region PS3 owners deserve to have this as well as the Japanese.

Umm, Gearbox, people have been saying great legs since week 2. These types of "legs" are all but the standard for average games in Others and Americas. I would agree that if it stayed at 5k a week, for a long time, it would be good legs. But that isn't likely.

Great Legs!

So is this game the slowest talked about game of the year in Japan?

Could this become PS3s Monster Hunter?
Might sell a lot slower but imagine if it just sold and sold and sold and sol. lol

Gearbox posted 12/03/2009, 09:36
@Aj_habfan not true at all

5k in every region means 15k a week which is amazing legs (if they stay that way for a long time)

It's funny how these are great legs in Japan but would be average or bad in the rest of the world.

I'm still pretty shocked this game is gonna sell 100k+, might even reach 125k at some point. But again, the reviews on Amazon.jp are just glowing.

@ DGC: I thought people have already stated that it's the retailers that basically decide on the size of the shipments, as Sony and the creators can't make retailers buy copies they don't want.

So basically, it's most probably the retailers' fault for underestimating this title.

It's not that is is a flop, it's just that From Software didn't expect it to be IN DEMAND so they shipped limited copies and now all of Japan are raging.

Sony sure weren't optimistic when they sent out the batches of this game if it sold out at 40k... It'll be interesting to see how well it does when there are more copies floating around. (Looking forward to this one, mainly because it's supposed to be 'super difficult')

A flop? nope, it initally got a supply of something 'round 30k most of which sold at the first day.

Then it got a bit more later... which all sold out as well.

I hope this doesn't lead to less demand, I hope to see it at 100k.

40k good opening for an rpg, on a system starving for said genre? Sold out or not, with that start, its kind of impossible to imagine this game ever hitting 200k or even approaching some kind of profitability
