Madness! Remember the figures are only for the period 1/4/08 to 30/3/09. Which is why something like Valkyrie Profile: Covenant of the Plume is so low, it was released on the 17th March 09 in the US. And on the 3rd of April 09 in the UK, which means that is in fact 20,000 pre-ordered copies! While Star Ocean: The Last Hope is not out until the 4th of June for Europe, and pre-orders for it only really started this month.

I used Google!=P That seems so much for video games! And Dissidia got over 900,000 units sold in just Japan! Imagine when it comes out in NA and Europe!

If you ever see a sign on the side of the road reading "Love Shack," DRIVE AWAY!!! :O Posts: 669 Group: Members Member #82 Joined: Jul 7, 2009 Gender Male	You know... Squeenix has done a good job making games that get people to want to buy a PSP for the sole reason of playing that game. 2008 had Crisis Core, and now this year we have Dissidia. I suppose Birth by Sleep could be next year's big title.

Kyle and Fate > Awesomeness Posts: 715 Group: Moderators Member #81 Joined: Jul 7, 2009 Gender Male	Even the remakes sell for a ton. We have young gamers now who have never played the original, since they were from so far back, so the remake seems entirely new.

Like when I played the Dragon Quest remakes on DS not that long ago, they were fantastic.

If they DO make an FFV DS, it won't be the same. They had trouble with FFIV DS, so they'll have it even worse with that game!
