http://www.vgchartz.com/game.php?id=18897 currently sitting at 931 and a bit K

I was sort of thinking about doing a thread asking people what they think is the best game this gen that won't sell 1 million. I, of course, was going to say Valkyria Chronicles. But what do I see when I go to the game page? >900K. That means it is a possible million seller.

So I abandoned that thread for this one instead.

What do you reckon?

It certainly deserves 1 million in sales; it deserves 2 million IMO.

I don't know, but the first game is still one of my favorite PS3 games, so I'm definitely going to be picking the sequel up.

Sega should have released it on 360 and PC in addition to PS3. At this point it doesn't make any sense for a 3rd party publisher to do PS3 exclusives.

I assumed it already was.

I notice the game did horrible in the first 20 weeks. Explains why they went low budget on the sequel.

i do not think they can ever do it, due in part of the reason being is due to the animation:

look at this:

Valkyria Chronicles (TV)

26 total ep.

Plot Summary: When Imperial forces attack the small border town of Bruhl, Welkin Gunther, son of late General Belgen Gunther, is forced to fight for his life alongside Town Watch captain Alicia Melchiott. Along with Welkin's adopted sister Isara, the three escape to Gallia's capitol and subsequently join the country's militia forces. As members of the newly-formed Squad 7, they must work to repel the invading Imperial forces and discover the true purpose of the invasion itself.

For Japanese publishers who's games aren't that commercial it sure does

I for example don't see any point in Resonance of Fate for the 360 after the lackluster sales, and it probably would have sold more on the PS3 if had been an exclusive, because the fanbase would have hyped a lot more, like with Yakuza 3.
