It's 800,000. TV-Nihon couldn't (and still can't) translate things properly. Even simple matters such as numbers. [[Special:Contributions/96.52.236.61|96.52.236.61]] ([[User talk:96.52.236.61|talk]]) 00:26, 21 February 2012 (UTC) |

- Bah. Stick it in front of the radio. W1nn4r! --Falos 21:53, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
- That's a funny idea, Falos, but this is not a forum about telling your opinions about the video game. It's for discussing about updating the article about the video game. Parrothead1983 (talk) 17:56, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
Translation
Looks like somebody mistranslated the game center cx show and wrote that it sold 80,000 copies. What they actually say in the show (and it's written in the bottom right hand corner) is 80万, which is 800,000. I've gone ahead and fixed it. --Genericdave (talk) 14:04, 26 February 2010 (UTC)
