	Gutbuster posted 29/05/2010, 06:57 That little blog called the Examiner also had this to say in November: http://www.examiner.com/examiner/x-6894-SF-Console-Game-Examiner~y2009m11d11-Ninja-Gaiden-Sigma-2-sales-data-revealed It's pretty clear that the 480,000 figure was lifted straight from here recently. KoeiTecmo doesn't care about this game anymore. KoeiTecmo's Japanese financial reports showed 370,000 copies shipped in one month. If the 480k figure was truly correct, then moving only 110k since then is pretty awful. I hope the next game does better as a fan of the series. Message \| Report

	scottsdone posted 30/04/2010, 05:43 Playing both versions back-to-back and noticing the differences is pretty amazing. This version is definitely better, even though I enjoy and love both. My biggest complaint (gameplay-wise) is that in many areas on the 360 version they drag out waaaay too long. What I mean by that is they throw 1 wave of enemies at you (say 6-10 enemies), and once you kill them they'll throw a smaller wave. Then they'll just make you fight 4-6 more enemies, but just throw them at you one at a time. I don't find it any-more difficult, but it's definitely repetitive. I'm actually finding the PS3 version more difficult due to OHKO grab and increased damage (despite slightly smaller waves). Message \| Report

	Gutbuster posted 05/01/2010, 06:37 The total was at .39m, then within a week it was suddenly at.42m, which was still there at the beginning of last week. Now this week, VGC has this at .45m all of a sudden. Where are these numbers coming from? They really aren't making sense at all. We can look at Week 10 and do the math. There is no way NGS2 sold another 30K last week (on Week 11), when Week 10 before it adds up to 13k rounded up, not down. Someone is just pushing that total number up for the heck of it. Keep pushing it up until it hits 1.0m lol. In reality, I expect this game has sold a lot less than .40m by now. Tecmo is on record as having only shipped 370k. This one is overtracked by a mile. I wish it were accurate and the legs were real. Message \| Report
	nen-suer posted 02/01/2010, 08:36 I wasn't expecting this low sales in others, and this high sales in NA Message \| Report
	st_muscat0 posted 20/12/2009, 04:53 @Gutbuster its because each region is rounded up, and that rounded up number for each region is then added together for the games total. Message \| Report
	Gutbuster posted 18/12/2009, 09:07 Strange numbers again. 2 days ago, the totally was .39m, but now it's .41m? The weekly totals add up to 394k. The .39m is actually more accurate when rounded. I still don't get how VGChartz gets its total figure, but I'm not complaining. Long live ninja gaiden. Message \| Report

	XxXProphecyXxX posted 08/12/2009, 08:46 This game sold so bad its gonna end up selling 600k+ more than half of the original NG2 despite being 1 year old port....yah im sure tecmo expected a old port to sell bazillions. Message \| Report
	nen-suer posted 06/12/2009, 10:05 Amazing legs in NA Message \| Report
	geddesmond2 posted 06/12/2009, 09:18 The problems in the port and not the game. I think developers expect slow starts for year old ports. Just look at bioshock PS3 and the few other year old ports that released on xbox 360 first. Message \| Report
	Gutbuster posted 30/11/2009, 07:06 NGS2 has been out in NA for a solid 2 months Avarice28. It was released and on the shelf September 30. It's on week 9 of its retail run here. That's why I'm disappointed. I think Tecmo is too. They only shipped 370k. If VG chartz is correct, then there will be another shipment. But how many will stores order this time with such low demand? It MIGHT do as much as NGS1 did ltd, but NG2 sold so much better with a similar userbase. I'm sure Tecmo had higher projected numbers for this before it was released. The Slim PS3 release didn't even help this one out. Message \| Report
	Avarice28 posted 30/11/2009, 06:01 It just came out Gutbuster, give it some time it will outsell its predecessor by a lot. Heck it is already half of it's sales and it has only been out a little over a month in North America. Message \| Report
	Gutbuster posted 26/11/2009, 08:44 @Aj_habfan: Thanks for making some sense of this. Still, NGS2 has around 300K units in the hands of consumers at this point. I have a feeling Tecmo expected it to do better than that. I'm a huge NG fanboy so I was hoping this would be a commercial success too. There are far more PS3's out there now than there were when NGS1 came out. Yet NGS1 might have higher ltd sales than this when all is said and done. That hurts. Message \| Report
	Simulacrum posted 26/11/2009, 07:34 Awesome game what I have played...Started right after finished NGS1 and this is much better. Message \| Report
	Aj_habfan posted 21/11/2009, 12:03 Gutbuster, the total below the boxart you see is the total of the rounded figure from all 3 areas. So if NA was at 174k it would be 0.17M, but after it sells 21k it moves to 195K, which would round to .20M. So it sold 21k but after rounding it appears to be a 30k difference in the one area alone. Message \| Report
	Gutbuster posted 20/11/2009, 07:58 So VGChartz tracked this at a net 30K for Week 7, yet it's total goes from 300k to 350k? Something is definitely off with the latest tracking. Message \| Report

	Gutbuster posted 06/11/2009, 08:05 If the numbers here are accurate and not overtracked like NPD suggests, then NGS2 won't even reach 400k lifetime. The trend isn't looking good at all. Message \| Report
	Boneitis posted 30/10/2009, 06:34 I highly doubt the extra content even helped sales. Well that was a waste for Tecmo. Message \| Report
	Barozi posted 25/10/2009, 01:03 NPD has this at a bit less than 38k. So probably 46k overtracked first week in the US. But after looking at these numbers it's highly possible that the 2nd week is also a bit overtracked. Message \| Report

	Rawnchie14 posted 10/10/2009, 10:29 @ Skeeuk Depends on your definition of "better". While the game has more content/weapons - the subtraction of blood and significantly lowered difficulty, wasn't too great to me. Which i could get the best of both games. Message \| Report
	sabby_e17 posted 10/10/2009, 05:23 After seeing Infamous's numbers I can say that any game that has an opening week of 250k will reach 1 million. So hopefully this manages 800-900k. Message \| Report

	Gutbuster posted 05/01/2010, 06:37 The total was at .39m, then within a week it was suddenly at.42m, which was still there at the beginning of last week. Now this week, VGC has this at .45m all of a sudden. Where are these numbers coming from? They really aren't making sense at all. We can look at Week 10 and do the math. There is no way NGS2 sold another 30K last week (on Week 11), when Week 10 before it adds up to 13k rounded up, not down. Someone is just pushing that total number up for the heck of it. Keep pushing it up until it hits 1.0m lol. In reality, I expect this game has sold a lot less than .40m by now. Tecmo is on record as having only shipped 370k. This one is overtracked by a mile. I wish it were accurate and the legs were real. Message \| Report

	st_muscat0 posted 20/12/2009, 04:53 @Gutbuster its because each region is rounded up, and that rounded up number for each region is then added together for the games total. Message \| Report
	Gutbuster posted 18/12/2009, 09:07 Strange numbers again. 2 days ago, the totally was .39m, but now it's .41m? The weekly totals add up to 394k. The .39m is actually more accurate when rounded. I still don't get how VGChartz gets its total figure, but I'm not complaining. Long live ninja gaiden. Message \| Report

	XxXProphecyXxX posted 08/12/2009, 08:46 This game sold so bad its gonna end up selling 600k+ more than half of the original NG2 despite being 1 year old port....yah im sure tecmo expected a old port to sell bazillions. Message \| Report

	geddesmond2 posted 06/12/2009, 09:18 The problems in the port and not the game. I think developers expect slow starts for year old ports. Just look at bioshock PS3 and the few other year old ports that released on xbox 360 first. Message \| Report
	Gutbuster posted 30/11/2009, 07:06 NGS2 has been out in NA for a solid 2 months Avarice28. It was released and on the shelf September 30. It's on week 9 of its retail run here. That's why I'm disappointed. I think Tecmo is too. They only shipped 370k. If VG chartz is correct, then there will be another shipment. But how many will stores order this time with such low demand? It MIGHT do as much as NGS1 did ltd, but NG2 sold so much better with a similar userbase. I'm sure Tecmo had higher projected numbers for this before it was released. The Slim PS3 release didn't even help this one out. Message \| Report
	Avarice28 posted 30/11/2009, 06:01 It just came out Gutbuster, give it some time it will outsell its predecessor by a lot. Heck it is already half of it's sales and it has only been out a little over a month in North America. Message \| Report
	Gutbuster posted 26/11/2009, 08:44 @Aj_habfan: Thanks for making some sense of this. Still, NGS2 has around 300K units in the hands of consumers at this point. I have a feeling Tecmo expected it to do better than that. I'm a huge NG fanboy so I was hoping this would be a commercial success too. There are far more PS3's out there now than there were when NGS1 came out. Yet NGS1 might have higher ltd sales than this when all is said and done. That hurts. Message \| Report
	Simulacrum posted 26/11/2009, 07:34 Awesome game what I have played...Started right after finished NGS1 and this is much better. Message \| Report
	Aj_habfan posted 21/11/2009, 12:03 Gutbuster, the total below the boxart you see is the total of the rounded figure from all 3 areas. So if NA was at 174k it would be 0.17M, but after it sells 21k it moves to 195K, which would round to .20M. So it sold 21k but after rounding it appears to be a 30k difference in the one area alone. Message \| Report
	Gutbuster posted 20/11/2009, 07:58 So VGChartz tracked this at a net 30K for Week 7, yet it's total goes from 300k to 350k? Something is definitely off with the latest tracking. Message \| Report

	Gutbuster posted 06/11/2009, 08:05 If the numbers here are accurate and not overtracked like NPD suggests, then NGS2 won't even reach 400k lifetime. The trend isn't looking good at all. Message \| Report
	Boneitis posted 30/10/2009, 06:34 I highly doubt the extra content even helped sales. Well that was a waste for Tecmo. Message \| Report
	Barozi posted 25/10/2009, 01:03 NPD has this at a bit less than 38k. So probably 46k overtracked first week in the US. But after looking at these numbers it's highly possible that the 2nd week is also a bit overtracked. Message \| Report

KoeiTecmo doesn't care about this game anymore. KoeiTecmo's Japanese financial reports showed 370,000 copies shipped in one month. If the 480k figure was truly correct, then moving only 110k since then is pretty awful. I hope the next game does better as a fan of the series. Message \| Report
