Super! As Smash Bros Piles into Japanese Chart
How does Devil May Cry 4 fare?
Posted 7 Feb 2008

It manages an impressive 820,000 sales, making it by far and away the week's biggest release. The next highest new entry is Capcom's Devil May Cry 4 for the PS3, racking up a quarter of Smash Bros' sales. The 360 version also fares well, given the console's low installed base in Japan. It lands at Number 7 with 40,000 sales.

Gamecube controller all the way for me, though I'll probably give the Wii remote a try. I'm a traditionalist at heart, though, and I can play Smash Bros. while drunk with the 'Cube controller.
Good times.
