No More Heroes Does OK In America (Probably Better In Europe)

[manred]

Marvellous Interactive have published some worldwide shipping/sales figures for Suda's No More Heroes. In Japan, homeland of all parties involved? It's done terribly. Only 40,000 copies have shipped since launch. Ouch. How about America, then? Little better: they've shipped around 200,000 copies, and have sold just over 100,000 since launch. Not bad! Finally, however, they announce some European numbers. And while the game's not even out there yet (it's shipping late Feb/early March across all PAL territories), they're expecting to sell 160,000 units across the continent at launch. Could something finally be coming up roses for Suda? Let's hope so!

It didn't do too bad of a job here in America.

Yeah this is a lot better than what every thought. What is funny is it was not suppose to do that good. With a bigger budget he can easily make a million seller. The character design and the style are on point. If you watch the vid of the preview you will see a version that would have been an undeniable classic had it had those graphics and what is funny is those graphics could be possible. Just look at smash and realize that this game is not even pushing the Wii yet it still is way above most games for just being some thing completely new.

Really sega or some one really need to throw this guys more cash. Well I think tecmo and nintendo are doing the by supporting the fatal frame.

Lol "not bad"? It blew Killer 7's first month sales out of the water. It's probably going to be Suda's best-selling game. To Marvelous, it's excellent!
