The new Devil May Cry sold 110,429 copies last week on the PS3 according to Media Create. The Xbox 360 did not chart in the top 20, so its currently unknown how well it did. However, Famitsu has both, the PS3 version selling 115,243 copies and the Xbox 360 version 5,827 copies. Again, according to Famitsu data, combined that's slightly less than half what Devil May Cry 4 did it first week, where it sold 212,373 and 40,169 copies, PS3 and 360 respectively. Eventually, it sold 440,000 copies.
Devil May Cry 620,000
Devil May Cry 2 450,000
Devil May Cry 3 430,000
Devil May Cry HD Collection 80,000
All of that is Famitsu data.
As you can see, in Japan, though it never reached quite as high as the first game again, the series sold very consistently. Devil May Cry 3 and 4 have sold steadily, increasing their sales every year for six and four years, respectively. The original sold steadily for 3 years. Devil May Cry 2 is the abnormality for obvious reasons, as it only charted for the year it was released in.
