Why are you sad about that Datamage ? 12th is
a fairly good spot,... isn\'t it ? Wasn\'t Ico only released
recently in Japan ? Anyway, we Europeans have
to wait til Jan 18th for ICO, so I\'m still very hyped
about it. It\'s getting great preview scores in european
magazines.

@ #12 but roughly only 16k sold. I think Ico is a great and unique game and deserves far better sales. Just like almost all of the DC game sales in Japan, it sucks to see low numbers.

Yeah, but because it\'s so short I consider it a rental only.  There is really little replay potential.

Impressive, the sales of the system are incredible for a week, and the games... take a look at the list. I´ve summed the complete units of games according to that list and the result is:

643,376 games for a week! Very good Sony!

I don\'t take japanese gamers serious. If dance dance revolution 2 was out it would be number on that chart.
