Hey there! I'm just here to show you all some interesting figures regarding Birth by Sleep's sales.

Media Create Sales: Jan. 11 - 17, 2010 - NeoGAF

Here it shows that BBS sales increased by 177,405 in its second week.
What do you think of those figures? Do you think its doing well or that it should be selling better?

:)

Let's see how well it sells in the US
because like what Azrael said Japanese people have a fetish for RPGs

Ha, this isn't something new. It was expected that BBS is going to be so well loved. :]

But don't you think North Americans and Europeans enjoy RPGs as well?
My classmates sure as heck don't. They like shooting games, and guatir hero, and mario. that's abou tit.

And i spose when i pay somebody to rent a PSP and play BBS... I'll be teased. LOL.

Number of copies sold: 623,000

Population of Japan: 127,704,000

Approximately 1 copy for every 204 people

Population of America 304,059,724

Using the same ratio, that's about 1,490,489 copies in the first two weeks

Not that I expect it to sell that much, but I guess it helps me put in perspective just how well BBS sold in Japan.

People who think these numbers are decreased because of custom firmware, think again. The anti-piracy on this game is so intricate, no one in the world so far (that I know or have heard of) has gotten past it's security. More and more people are importing this game now when they would usually download it! Go BBS, go!
