Personally from the over-compressed distorted noise that is the song I listened to I don't think it will follow through.
Somebody on their team has done a good job. They didn't forget the obvious (January low sales) and got a great result for an unknown entity.
Being down as the first download only entry (If they do get remembered/noted) may be little more than a vanity trip but I would have liked to do it.

Nice one Koopa congrats... unless it really is a nasty major playing games
