Forums - Sales Discussion - Betting Time: Week 1 for MH3, WSR, DQIX & HW Boosts in Japan

TheSource on 17 June 2009

Capcom listed shipment expectations for Monster Hunter 3 at 2.0m though through March 2010 and it isnt supposed to release in the west until March 2010. So it could be fairly big.  The Monster Hunter G port is going to do maybe 250k on Wii, so you would expect the new game to be two to three times largers at a bare minimum even without the Capcom forecast.

WSR: FW= 250K, LT= 2 millions, HW on launch= 40K

DQIX: FW= 2 million, LT= 4.5 million, HW on launch= 180K

Edit : Upped my MH3 predictions, forgot it was bundled



PS3-Xbox360 gap : 1.5 millions and going up in PS3 favor !

PS3-Wii gap : 20 millions and going down !

Can you link the Famitsu forecasts? I believe you but I'd like to see when they were issued, as the legs of the titles are dependent to some degree on future releases. In other words if they knew Wii Fit Plus, NSMB Wii, Tales of Grace etc were 2009 releases as the post E3 gaming world does, they may have gone higher (or lower)

No link because GAF is down, saw it there yesterday from a poster who always translates Famitsu and MC numbers every week, he has no agenda or anything like that and is credible, he posted the numbers yesterday, so I take it is from this week's famitsu.
