In its first week, Persona 4: Arena outdid the opening week sales of several other major fighting games in Japan.

And it was followed very closely by Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 2.

Sony red striped seven more games and added them to the PlayStation 3′s Greatest Hits library.

Namco Bandai posted sales numbers in their latest financial report and the top selling title for this period was Tekken 6.

Lars Alexandersson from Tekken 6 is joining the cast of Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 2 in the costume Naruto artist Masashi Kishimoto made for him.

A Taiko no Tatsujin drum roll, if you please…

Today, Amazon is slashing prices on PlayStation 3 games like Dante’s Inferno and Tekken 6 which you can get for $38.99 and $17.99, respectively, right now.

Namco Bandai expected to be in the black with a profit of 8.5 billion yen ($94 million). Instead they reported a total loss of 31 billion yen ($343 million).

You’ll be able to play the Tekken Force-esque scenario campaign mode online soon. A free update that adds online play to the brawler mode in Tekken 6 and tweaks Mokujin will be ready on Monday.

The meat of the game is in the first two, arcade and story, while the last two offer more of a “compete against yourself” vibe.

Remember that fix Namco Bandai was working on for Tekken 6? The online update will be ready this Thursday and contains a bunch of network enhancements.

Technically, Namco Bandai already released downloadable content for Tekken 6. The limited edition came with a cardboard samurai costume for Yoshimitsu.

Players earn cash in Gold Rush mode, which can be used to customize Tekken 6 characters.

Online play in Tekken 6 is a choppy experience. Perhaps, grating if you’re ace player timing just frame moves. The good news is it should get better.

Tekken 6 is out on the PS3 and Xbox 360 now. Someday, in the not so distant future, it will be on the PSP too with different features.

In Tekken 6, Kazuya Mishima is ready for Yoshimitsu.
