I'd say that's pretty good for what a niche game usually sells. Many Atlus titles only do about 50-70k LTD... Course it depends on how much Ignition spent on the game...

Better sales than Japan for Muramasa, so I would actually say that's a great number, given what it is.

Didn't GT PSP come out on the 1st of October?
what the fuck at PSP software
gran turismo fair enough as it's a pile of watered down shit. but the soul calibur game is supposed to be great. such a shame, especially now the psp is getting loads of good stuff
ds games did amazingly well. 2 games around the 200k mark as well as mario and luigi

So, when was the last time 3 DS games outsold NSMB and Mario Kart? I would imagine it's been quite awhile.

So is it too early to talk about hardcore games on the Wii?

I know but 18k is completely embarrassing. I don't expect it to sell like hotcakes but we should wait until next month, when it is officially released, before declaring it a bomb.

Like Dragona said, if sales were significant, we would hear about it.
I predict DD sales will end up resembling Enron Accounting: just put down whatever number you think it is going to sell and call it a day. That or use different ways of distorting the numbers.

I can tell you that the GT Network Cards (ie a voucher you paid for in the store but redeem via PSN) is under 1k. Just for comparison.

It has been stated multiple times that this NPD covers up to Oct 3.confused said:

Great numbers for Scribble and kingdom.
surprisingly decent numbers for Muramasa, let's hope it can stay in shelves enough to get a decent holiday boost.
PSP fails at selling games...
when sony's biggest franchise sells less in its debut days than niche software , you know you are in trouble.

Wow those GT numbers are horrible. But it's a portable version that wasn't well received. People are waiting for GT5 for their sim experiences.
Forza 3 numbers are going to be downright awful next month. I hope Microsoft doesn't get rid of Turn 10 like they did Ensemble studios. Ensemble's Halo Wars sold like 700+k in the US, great sales, and Microsoft ditched them for whatever reason. Forza 3 will do much worse than Halo Wars and probably cost a whole lot more to produce.

I wonder why the PSP can't shift games, there's fucking millions of them out there, just doesn't make sense and I really can't beleive that piracy is making those numbers that low surely ?

Is this the first time since their release that the NPD Holy Trinity of Wii Play, Wii Fit, and Mario Kart Wii have all failed to chart?
Also, those Gran Turismo numbers make me not want to see whatever Motorstorm PSP did.

who the hell is buying psps?
Piracy cant be that bad. What are the 8-14 year old kids i see with psps playing? the numbers are pathetic. there have to be more sony loyals than 18k....
makes me wonder why sony is even bother supporting the system with high quality games like motorstorm, little big planet, etc. even some decent third party support like rockband and soul calibur.
the lineup for the psp is actually pretty good this year.
We have known this for years but when GT does 18k I think we can definitely say PSP is dead in the US.

Piracy + low interest = low sales
They cut out the biggest feature that gets people to buy the GT games. The inevitable rampant piracy for this game merely kicked the game while it was down.

Guess I'll either rent it or wait until it hits 20 or 30 dollars. I am amazed KH did that well.

At least us enlightened few can enjoy it.
Another racing game note: I guess the horrid Undercover was finally the last straw when it comes to killing the Need for Speed brand
