Yes, this game is selling very well. This game actually fell a few places from last week (it was 11th, if I recall correctly), but this fall is only caused by new releases forcing it down the list. This is not an indication that sales are slowing, and in fact, according to VGCharts, sales have increased this week and have been increasing for the last month.
I'm not sure what caused this sales increase, perhaps just a slow month for the DS let consumers focus more on older DS games.
We'll likely see sales pick up as the next Professor Layton game starts to garner hype and again when the third Layton game is released (this game is the first game in the Professor Layton trilogy).
I think this game will easily pass the current stock price. I think 800K is doable and more than that could be done if the other Layton games do well.
And then there's always the chance of a North American (and PAL, hopefully) release, which would make this game very undevalued.
