期ずれが発生した「ＤＥＡＤ　ＯＲ　ＡＬＩＶＥ　４」の販売状況については、「発売開始後の２ヶ月間で販売本数は７０万本に達しており、４ヶ月で１００万本を販売した前作と同じトレンドできている」（安田善巳社長）

it says DOA4 has sold 700k copies already.

but NPD says only 100k+ in US, and in Japan less than 100k XBOX360 have been sold. Let's assume every japanese XBX360 player also buys one DOA4(possible?......)

Then there are still 500k copies of DOA4 left, so Euro people bought 400k~500k DOA4 in one month?

or anything wrong here?

Decimal-Gate Duex?

That doesn't even make sense... There's barely been 500k X360's sold in Europe (probably a bit more now, but certainly not enough). That'd imply almost 1:1 Doa4 attach ratio, and, frankly, Doa4 isn't that good of a game...

Spoiler

not by a long shot -- Yes, you heard me Itagaki, you're ugly game is cock.

 

[gogogow]

shipped/sold to retailers?

 

[Chi-Town]

It's 70,000 copies not 700,000

And it only covers how many copies they shipped out by December 31.

 

[Rocky_Balboa]

Isn't '70 man' (&#19975 700 000?

Nah it's 700,000. Yahoo,and gamefront are reporting 700,000. The only one who has 70,000 is gamespot.com (wich i assume is where your getting your info from)wich is most likely a typo,or false info

Gamespot's story on it.

I'm more inclined to believe the Gamespot story because Tecmo's press release was about their financial quarter ending December 31. It's pretty unlikely they would've shipped 700,000 copies from the 29th thru the 31st.

From that link you posted

Tecmo shipped 70,000 copies of DOA4 in its first two months in retail.

dec+january

it's already sold more then that in the us alone.

And it has sold more than that in Japan alone as well.

I believe the 700,000 number. Especially since it is more than likely talking shipped numbers.

 

[eeyore the donkey]

[FtsH]

if it is shipping number then I trust it...but '販売' means 'sold', right?
