Theres have to be something wrong with this o_O
For the topic at hand i cannot wait to have my copy of kid icarus, it looks really great IMHO, and gravity rush as well, which is not on the list o_O, but seeing the vita numbers in japan is not that hard to understand really.

@1 You are right – that is a Namco game! Very odd the chart has Nintendo listed instead. I will fix that.
