Well if VGChartz is to be believed, it's a pretty grim picture: http://www.vgchartz.com/game/48546/sly-cooper-thieves-in-time/Global/

Only managed to sell 150k copies in the US over six weeks with an incredibly sharp decline after its second week. In this day and age that's really bad. It didn't help that it was in direct competition with Dead Space 3 and Fire Emblem. It also had nearly no advertising at all, no thanks to Sony. We'll see how the numbers change once the game hits Europe, but I don't think it'll help much.

For comparison, the first two games sold over a million copies worldwide, and the third sold about ~860k.
