Step and Go weekly sales

Week 1: #01 - 324,223 copies

Total: 348,338 copies [/list:u]For comparisons:

Happiness weekly sales

Week 1: #01 - 192,196 copies
Week 2: #03 - 30,936 copies

Total so far: 271,101 copies[/list:u]I don't think it's fair to compare them though~ Happiness had a drama tie-in SaG doesn't have and SaG's first week sales were totally unexpected XD

^..thanx for the info hikaru chan..im so hoping it to reach 400k..onegai...please do reach 400k :fingerscrossed:

thanks for the info hikaru :woot: um..Happiness got 192k for the first week sales, :confused: far different from Wish if I'm not wrong~hikaru-chan, can you paste week sales for Wish?

^ When WISH was released I wasn't that much into sales but this is what the wiki says:

The single debuted at the number one spot on the Oricon chart, with initial sales of 177,528 copies and left the charts with sales of 303,812 copies.

Although it's better not to trust wiki too much (since anyone can edit the articles there's usually quite a lot of false info) the single has really sold 304k so far, so I would say the first week sales are also correct ^^

i've received the reply of yesasia regarding the oricon style ranking :

i also asked cdjapan, but they haven't replied yet.

anyway, i just noticed that sho is not wearing his piercing lately. is he trying to be more formal now because of news zero...?

but Okada Junichi's is :thumbsup: . anyway, it would've been better if it was Ohno though, coz then it'd be like 3 totally different characters; Ohno has this 'funny' aura

It broke the 200k mark and it's still in the TOP20! <333

here is the reply of cdjapan customer service to me: http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/oricon.html

if you buy with cdjapan, it will include in oricon chart as well. but I prefer yesasia sometimes, because it is more cheaper :hehe:

Yeah omedetou! :)

It's still in the Yearly Top20 for 2008 as well, and only the 4th music-DVD to break the 200k mark since end of last year besides Kanjani8 (262k), KAT-TUN (220k), and EXILE (212k). This is Arashi's best-selling DVD yet I believe!

HMV would have been the best choice if shipping to Malaysia. Price+shipping for 2 singles for instance equals to price-only at YA, plus it's more reliable.

is it counted in Oricon chart?

Yeah, Oricon listed HMV, CDJapan, Amazon, Tower Records as counted. No YesAsia though...

though they only accept creditcard as a payment method.

I haven't seen any clip of the Time concerts but I believe he did the MJ walk during the Time era, so I would say yes XDD
