Catherine Sold 200,000 Copies In Its First Week

When Atlus said it had enjoyed its best launch ever with Catherine, we weren't expecting numbers anywhere near the 200,000 mark. But that's exactly what Catherine pulled off in its first week on sale, which is a resounding success for such an unusual title, and a big "oorah" for folks that are getting a bit bored of Shooty Shooty Shooty Game III releasing every other week.

For full disclosure, the number was confirmed on a picture of a cake posted on Atlus' Twitter account. But we're respectable, serious journalists. We know a delicious rock-solid source when we see one.
