Dragon's Crown, not that valuable in Japan?

Combined, Dragon's Crown on the PS3 and Vita sold 175,000 but that lagged behind the latest Pheonix Wright adventure for the 3DS. To me those sales numbers don't look that high, especially after reports of the game selling out. Either Atlus low-balled on the release numbers, which seems strange for such an expensive game.\

Toukiden finally dropped out of the top 10, but has now crossed the 200,000 mark which puts it into serious Vita hit territory. While on the hardware front, it looks like DC help shift another 5,000 odd Vita consoles as the format hit 19,866 sales for the week. More than it does across most of Europe in a month!, if some national figures are to be believed.

02./00. [PS3] Dragon's Crown (Atlus) {2013.07.25} (¥8.190) - 104.359 / NEW
03./00. [PSV] Dragon's Crown (Atlus) {2013.07.25} (¥8.190) - 71.083 / NEW
17./07. [PSV] Toukiden # (Koei Tecmo) {2013.06.27} (¥6.090) - 8.253 / 208.170 (-36%)

To celebrate the game's imminent U.S. release, there's a new trailer, Europe stand by to import like the good old days.
