3D Dot Game Heroes Sells Six Times Expectations, Demon’s Souls Does Double

Demon’s Souls may have been Atlus USA’s top selling title, but 3D Dot Game Heroes sales pixel exploded way past the publisher’s projections. Atlus USA estimated 25,000 units. 3D Dot Game Heroes actually sold 160,000 units, greater than six times expectations.

Demon’s Souls sales were 380,000, a bit more than double the 150,000 unit projection.

Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 3 Portable was Atlus’ strongest seller in Japan. The PSP version moved 220,000 units, well above the 170,000 unit projection. Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey sold 150,000 (150K expected), which was a bit more than Etrian Odyssey III: The Drowned City’s 140,000 units (130K expected).

Atlus plans on selling 138,000 copies of Radiant Historia. Catherine, the first HD game from the Persona team, is projected to sell 150,000 units on both consoles.
