The poor sales of Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars on the DS has been well chronicled. In spite of receiving critical acclaim, the title pretty much bombed in its opening month in the United States. Nintendo said that the sales of Chinatown Wars would grow over time, but it doesn’t look like the game has been selling a whole lot more since April. But in a recent interview, Nintendo’s Cammie Dunaway discussed the poor sales of the game and noted that heavier and long-term advertising should have been in place.
