Noby Raghavan 168 Posted March 20, 2013 Wow! =D Great job KH! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Noobles 301 Posted March 20, 2013 Wow. That is very impressive. Square Enix did do a very good job in advertising and they even made a timeline for publicizing. TV Ads, Posters, Promotions, even one where they invited fans to film a commercial and then gave them goodies. Very good methods of drawing in lots of people. I feel like it will continue to get bigger once people see how awesome the game is and be introduced to people that never heard of Kingdom Hearts.

Tails 6,692 Posted March 20, 2013 Wow, so that's howm much the MGS HD Edition sold on the first week. Glad to know how many units that and the Peace Walker HD Edition did. Though i am glad to see KH did well on its first week. Though I think we all know that once Wind Waker HD comes out that will blow KH 1.5 (and supposedly 2.5) out of the water once it's released.

Elijah Gravenhorst 480 Posted March 20, 2013 I'm glad to see that Zone of the Enders is on the list, congrats to 1.5 too but I always knew it would do well so I'm not surprised. I can still hope for a Z.O.E 3 though right? I mean that's what HD remakes are for right? To prepare for the next release? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VentusX 20 Posted March 21, 2013 i'm confused, how is KH the highest selling game of the week if Monster Hunter sold over double.shouldn't it be Highest selling PS3 game of the week. Never mind, misread one bit Also, final sale records put the SAO game at 138,000 units sold, so KH still came second Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
