If current sales trends hold true. The DS will his 18 million first. Although I just thought about something that may throw a wrench into things. Eternal Sonata hits the 360 soon. Okay that being the case, I'm going to take a big gamble and say the 360 hits 410k first. If Eternal Sonata is half as successful as Blue Dragon was during its initial week, it will cause the 360 to crack 410k the first week of release.



I'm going to say it will be in this order:
1. DS
2. Xbox360
3. Wii
4. PS3



Currently playing:
Wii: MySims | Xbox360: Halo3 / Pac-Man C.E | DS: Scurge | PSP: Ghost in the Shell

Oh year forgot to do the order I guess. I'm gonna look like an idiot if Eternal Sonata tanks.

1. 360
2. DS
3. Wii
4. PS3

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

I think most people that bought Blue Dragon are likely to buy Eternal Sonata, than people that don´t have 360s. Though their gameplay is different, their artstyle is quit similar. I could be wrong of course.
In my opinion:

DS
Wii or 360
PS3



While they both have an anime style. The art style is quite different. The best way I can describe the difference is this. Blue Dragon=Dragon Ball Z. Eternal Sonata=Princess Monoke. As for why I think the Eternal Sonata will boost 360 sales. I think the boost will come from the Eternal Sonata/360 bundle. Blue Dragon moved a lot 360s that way.



#1 - 360. Trusty Bell launches soon, and Forza gave the 360 a slight slight increase for 2 weeks thus far. TB should sell atleast 10k systems, letting the 360 pass the number in 3 Weeks

#2 - PS3. The PS3 will reach it at 4 weeks due to NGS and Folk Soul bumping enough hardware sales to just barely get to the number(s) at the 4 week mark.

#3 - DS. At a rate of 130,000 units a week, on average, the DS will hit the 18m mark at 5 weeks

#4 - Wii. Averaging 57.5k for 3 weeks, then hit 75k, I think the next few weeks average will be around 70k, letting the Wii hit 3m in 6 weeks



Back from the dead, I'm afraid.

I also think X360 first. Eternal Sonota will definitly boost sales. of the hardware. Despite people who own Blue Dragon buying this title. People who may have wanted Blue Dragon but felt blue dragon alone wasn't enough to buy the 360 will now buy 360 Etenal Sonota(trusty bell) and blue dragon. So I at least for a week expect to see Blue Dragon get a slight boost in sales as well.

They should attach a Lost Oddessy Demo with anyone who buys the Trusty Bell packed in 360. That would really jump start sales. I think.

 360 I think will to it in 2 weeks.(as long as Trusty bell is coming out next week.)

Then I'll see Wii/DS in the same number of weeks.(4 or 5)

And ps3 last. (6 weeks)
