The DS isn't the only hot item in the Japanese game market right now. Square Enix announced today that over a period of three days, shipments for Kingdom Hearts II have crossed the one million mark. The game hit Japanese retail on 12/22.

While this number is impressive, it's worth noting that Japan's two favorite series, Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest, tend to do double that in their first day or two at retail. However, we're sure Square Enix is pleased, considering that the first release of the original Kingdom Hearts didn't even cross the million mark in Japan.

Square Enix expects Kingdom Hearts II to reach the ten million mark in worldwide sales
