Anywho, this game is out in Japan, right? What did they think of it?

i'm pretty sure it tanked sales-wise. not sure about critical reception. i think it's pretty silly that they released an Atelier ripoff around the same time a real Atelier game was released. should have timed that a little better, though there's no guarantee it would have made much difference.

Yeah that probably wasn't the best idea.

GUST fans are guaranteed to nab Meruru instead. And Atlus fans look at the game with trepidation, cause GUST is a COMPLETELY different style than they're used to.

The game sold at least 50k.................



it might of made profit on the ds if costs were 0

I'm kind of hoping it didn't fail quite so terribly, but then I'm just here for the soundtrack, so don't mind me.

[stealth20k]

it might of made small profit for all we know.

it sold 25k the week it was released and then it fell off the sales charts completely. it didn't come anywhere close to 50k...

yeowch...that's pretty bad. Not really for a niche game, but for an Atlus game. Oh well.

[Hero]

well, it's a DS game so they could have still broken even, but yeah those are pretty disappointing sales.

[stealth20k]

Well from what ive been told its broken 50+ k


Those charts dont tell the whole story sometimes apparently...................according to those chartz rorona sold around that in the west too but apparently it was much much more

[Hero]

well i was going by MediaCrate numbers, which are about as accurate as it gets (though they don't track online sales so its not completely accurate)

i don't know where you got the Rorona numbers, but unless they're straight from NISA or the NPD, i wouldn't trust them.

[stealth20k]

Ive asked lyner about how rorona did. And while the numbers paint a shitty picture..................he said rorona did quite well here

And online is likely were alot is coming from. I imported a copy online so obviously that wouldnt be reported by media create..........and theres a decent community of importers.

The numbers painted a great picture for Rorona >.>
From what I got from what I asked of Lyner, was that the numbers on Chartz were too high.

[stealth20k]

he told me something completely different. Oh well

[vampko]

he told me something completely different. Oh well

That's because Chartz changed their numbers from when I last saw them...weird...

Well then, that's probably pretty accurate that it's more than that. But, yeah, Rorona did really well, and I hope Totori does even better ~

[stealth20k]

you cant really trust any of the numbers as they arent 100 percent accurate

Very disappointed to learn Nora didn't do well. That also means it's an even lower chance of it coming here. It's too bad, I was curious about it and would have wanted to play it.
