===============================================================

Week 1: 241,215 units sold
Thanks in part to a strong marketing push encompassing TV and
print ads and merchandise,
AC3e debuts at #1 to some good but not mind-blowing sales.
Namco had also picked a good week without much in the way of
competition (Beatmania, Lunar 2).

Week 2: 55,179 units sold (-77%)
A 77% drop-off isn't all that bad, but it's clearly the initial
splash that counts.
Apples to apples, Final Fantasy Ⅷ had gone from 2.5 million
units down to 270,000 (-89%);
Biohazard 3 Last Escape would slide from 1 mil to 148,000
(-85%).

Week 3: 27,732 (-50%)
Super Robot Wars and Racing Lagoon launch.
AC3e hangs in there at #5.

Week 4: 20,635 (-25%)
Its last week in the Top 10.
After Week 6 it leaves the Top 30 altogether, finishing the
year with a total of 395,000 (#35). 100,000 less than AC2 in
'97 (#16).
