===Sales=== Despite the critical acclaim, and Konami's inital hopes that the game would be an international hit, sales of ''Peace Walker'' have been very poor outside of Japan. In Europe, the game failed to chart in most countries and placed 13th in the UK in its first week. By its third week, ''Peace Walker'' fell out of the top 40. In America, the game similarly failed to make the top 20 during its first month, selling only 52,000 physical UMD copies, a markedly worse performance than ''Metal Gear Acid''. However, with the PSP's digital content delivery option through PSN, it has been noted that perhaps sales on the PSP should been counted differently since digital downloads for the PSP and PSPgo are not counted. Industry analyst Mike Hickey told IGN that the "PSP platform sales have faded meaningfully, and likely was a significant contributor to Peace Walker's weak sales." However, Konami has stated that they have a profit of $15 million from sales of ''Peace Walker'' and the ''Pro Evolution'' soccer games, but they did not provide sales figures for ''Peace Walker''. They have, however, said ''Peace Walker'' sales helped the ''Metal Gear'' games sell 1.2 million copies for the quarter.
