Quiz Magic Academy DS ~Futatsu no Jikuuseki~ (DS) – 24k (32%)
Sacred 2 (PS3) – 19k (83%)
Zangeki no Reginleiv (Wii) – 17k (52%)
Tennis no Oujisama ~More Sweet Edition~ (DS) – 16k (65%)

Sacred 2 (360) – 15k (87%)
Dragon Ball DS 2 (DS) – 11k (17%)
Lupin the 3rd: Shijou Saidai no Tounousen (DS) – 7k (40%)

SOCOM Portable (PSP) – 5k (36%)
Madworld (Wii) – 5k (25%)

There hasn’t been a first day sales leak in awhile, and I can’t confirm that these numbers are 100% correct. None of them are too surprising, though, so I wouldn’t be surprised if they were the real deal.

[PS3] MAG ~150K
[PS3] Darksiders ~130K
[360] Bayonetta ~100K
[PS3] Bayonetta ~60K
[Wii] Tatsunoko vs. Capcom ~50K
[Wii] No More Heroes 2 ~25K

[All] Dark Void – 22K

These figures are not confirmed, but they do look like they are fairly accurate. EEDAR recently shared the news that No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle sold about 30,000 units in its first week. Based on the official data released by the NPD as well as the top 20 rankings we posted today, the numbers above don’t seem to be too far off. If they are true, I think that most Wii owners would agree that Tatsunoko vs. Capcom is off to a pretty good start.

Thanks to David S for the news tip!

“Right now we are working on a title that could end up on the Wii, but it is too early to say for sure.” – artistic design of Max and The Magic Marker, Lasse Outzen

I was just talking WiiWare games lately in our last post, and Max and The Magic Marker looks like it’ll fall into the category of must-play WiiWare titles. I’d definitely love to see Press Play bring their next project to Wii.

“The game is finished, and for various reasons, not yet released. We’ve wanted to compensate the delay with improved graphics and extra contents. It goes on sale in Europe, USA and Japan at least in March 2010. The date isn’t clear yet because it’s no longer up to us.” – Jose Manuel from Akaoni Studio

Zombie Panic in Wonderland is one WiiWare game in particular I’ve been looking forward to. WiiWare in general has actually been pretty great the past few months and it looks like there are other great titles on the way.
