Thats the 1st day sales numbers, if it had been on 360 and 37% sales in Japan, you (Hasan) wouldn't have a problem with it, infact you would be thinking up excuses as to why it did so poorly.
37% is not poor by any means.
Marumaro for the WIN !!

Still, I have a strong feeling my SB vacation will be spent taking a trip on over to Mr. Japan for some Q & A. They thought Godzilla terrorized the town, O No! That will be a walk in the park from the Hulk Fury I will bring. I stood by when they shunned Zelda, cursed BD, and now shamed VF. No sir. 3 Strikes

There's an absolute dearth of quality software on the PS3 in Japan right now, I expect it to do comparatively well just on that basis.
The problem for Sony is that it will likely disappear off the charts completely the week after.

It's still only one day... !!!!
It's not a test at all, because, the PS3's have already been sold and paid for and gamers are waiting for something decent to come out and not everyone is going to like 3D fighters. (so the true test is that the PS3 is still selling in Japan)
Blue Dragon is a JRPG which is probably likely to sell better than a fighter anyway.
They way i see it is that BD is a must have titles.
VF5 is a must have title only because there is nothing else around.
Software adoption is really bad on the PS3 right now, but with DMC4, MGS4 and RE5 there will be no stopping it.
Not to mention FF13 and WKS
Marumaro for the WIN !!
You really have no idea what you're talking about, so just stop trying. Go back to predicting your 200 gig satellite 360 with Wifi and coffee maker, or w/e you were talking about.

First day sales don't mean a whole lot--first week would be more telling. But that said, it has been claimed VF5 is a big franchise as well as the first high quality Japanese title at all so you would hope for huge numbers. But the wild card: Arcades are big in Japan, so those will dent sales some too. i.e. Not much of an immediate compelling buy. Why buy a PS3 and game when you can drop $15 a week at the arcades?

and to add something to what Acert said, it sold to around 5% of the current userbase. Around when VF4 hit, it sold around 300k(first week) if i remember correctly, which was about 5% of the userbase at the time on the PS2, which was around 6-7mill. I'll look up the numbers, so don't hold me on that just yet :P
here we go PS2 userbase was around 7,020,883 by the time VF4 was released, and it sold around 350k its first week. PS3 UB is around 613,000 and VF5 is probably on track to sell around 50k for the first week, but so far an unconfirmed 34k for the first day. Yeah, do the math. Still kind of unexpected, yes, but not the OMG PS3 IS DOOMED, like the TC was trying to imply.

@Jolli VF series is real big in japan. Bigger then tekken, doa, and most other fighters put together at the same time.
@hansan what do those numbers mean? That info is vague and what do those percentage signs mean?

Not to mention that it's totally unavailable in arcades outside of Japan, well I think that is still true

Take for example gears of war and how many 360 there are (10M). Gears ratio of people buying it and how many consoles out there is amazing but I bet it would be a lot less if there were around 60 milion 360s. And that's all im trying to point out.
But there are many other factors too. Like you said they have many arcade cabinents and there are other things aswell.
Like I said it's not bad numbers nor is it good.
P.S. Sorry if my writing is not clear, concise, and accurate.

Like with BD and DOA4, both sold around 110k and 150k in Japan, to a userbase of around 300k. Yeah, PS3 titles don't have the same luxury. I honestly don't know wtf they are doing with them, since the software sales never match up with the hardware sales really, well not like the 360s.

And VF5 isn't that main stream (well in the Arcade it is), its sucessful on console but hardly a killer app and the Japanese have already been playing this game in the Arcades for over a year.
So it's hardly the killer title people are claiming it to be.
Marumaro for the WIN !!
