Oh my....that's exactly what I was estimating it would do. That's a big shock. And a welcome one at that! I was fearing it would only sell down in the low 30s. Let's hope it gets a good 200,000-300,000 total for America lifetime. Message | Report |

Wow! But I doubt others will be much to look at judging by current trends. 3rd party Wii "gamey" games seem to have found footholds in America and Japan has MH3 and can look forward to Dragon Quest 10, but Others just can't seem to shake that "casual" curse Message | Report |

Easily one of the best action games I have played in a long time. Brings back memories of the old 2D classics but in amazing glorious 2.5D stylized graphics that melt your face while you are playing. Besides the fact that the controls are a perfect blend of challenge and reward along with the amazingly addictive large list of unlockable swords. This game just oozes quality/style/and gameplay that is instantly classic. Its hard to describe but this game hits the nail on the head perfectly. Every wii owner who likes action games or 2.5D should buy this game without hesitation. It deserves sales in the millions! Message | Report |

So far I absolutely love the game. The music is awesome and I don't think I need to explain the visuals. On the surface it seems like a button mash free for all but you will quickly realize that it's much deeper than that. I love forward to spending plenty of time on this game. Message | Report |

I sped through Kisuke's story in 7hrs. I got about half the swords though, and only fought two "gates" where you get special equips. I also played most of the game on the muso, only putting it on the shura difficulty before boss fights. The difference in difficulty is immense btw. You'll be dieing a lot on Shura, while never on Muso. Now I'm starting Momohime's campaign. This game is definitely on track to being in my top 10 Wii games.. Message | Report |

So if you count shipped numbers which they base their estimates on this game has likely sold 56k to retailers already. Good to see them meet their goal. And judging from the preorder data that was just posted it should have a pretty big opening in America. Probably around 35,000 - 40,000 Message | Report |

Thank you Vanilla Ware for this masterpiece! Just in case anyone doesn't know, Gamestop has a really nice pre-order gift for this game. It is a fold out wall scroll with detailed drawings of the main characters. It looks almost as sweet as this game! Hope it does really well since I love the 2.5-D push lately :) Message | Report |

That depends on how well Ignition markets it. Same thing's true with ARC RISE FANTASIA. These two titles should eventually sell over time if they find the right audience. In Japan, it would have been a better idea to wait at least until MH3 debuts; then they would have had a better chance of attracting people. Message | Report |

It's indeed a fine start, but whether MURAMASA can maintain that momentum depends on the upcoming weeks. FRAGILE debuted with similar (although smaller) numbers and look at how far that went. But if Marvelous' expectations are that low, then this will indeed be considered a success. Message | Report |
