Briefly: During its first week on sale in Japan, Wii U exclusive Devil’s Third didn’t make the top fifty on the sales chart. Number fifty was 3DS title Yokai Watch 2, which sold 1,006 copies. Guess that means Devil’s Third didn’t even sell a thousand copies… or maybe it sold 1005! Correction: As pointed out by several Kotaku commenters, Devil’s Third isn’t in the sales charts because it’s an Amazon Japan exclusive, so we don’t know how it sold. We apologise for the error.
Hope you also post the apology from the US site stating that this didn’t chart due to Amazon Japan not even being included in the charts

So a console exclusive I can understand, even when a company decides to pick the Wii U, but then also forcing it through 1 supplier only? What marketing genius dreamt that up and where do I sign to take over their role?
I expect it to sell well..
It looks great, someone has worked hard to give us an exclusive for the Wii u.
Good on them for choosing us as their audience.
This sounds like an “I told you so”. Not really interested in games to sit back and point at all the mistakes I haven’t experienced nor understand – have fun everyone who is, looks like a lot of you.
Why write something without finding out the true facts first?
Why try to make someone’s hard work look bad in the first place?
There is a lot of effort put into this game for us Nintendo fans!
We must encourage and support the people that make exclusives for the wii u!
We must support people that give us Wii u exclusives!
