I'm sure it's coming, but it seems a little too soon.

Why? TGS would be the perfect time to announce it. When did they announce MH3 PS3, MH3 moving from PS3 to Wii and MHP2G?

Some random dat if I remember correctly. A TGS announcement would be a good time, I don't see MH3 selling big numbers at the end of september. Besides, everyone who buys the Wii version knows a PSP port is incoming.

A march 2010 release is possible.

I believe LTD's of DQIX and MH3 will do respectively 5 and 1.8 millions.
I'm at 130 hours gameplay and DQ IX is the best RPG I ever played.

Well, I guess it'll take more than a month for MH3 to reach 1 million.

I predict 1.5 million final sales for Japan.

People are saying MH3 fails not out of some prediction on this site but out of the prediction of the game publisher....
Capcom said expectations were to ship 1.5 millions units this year and as time pass it looks less and less likely that this will happen....

Am sure Capcom will still be very happy with the sales.

Hi.

Any chance you could quote a source for their expectations? You seem to know what they were.

Edit: apparently 1.5 million shipped by end 2009. That might still happen. Give it two more weeks and we should have some idea. If they ship 1.2 or 1.3 million it will have only slightly missed predictions.

blaz - Unless it displays some sort of future-driven godly legs, it's going to sell anywhere near 1.5 million.

It dropped 50% on a holiday weekend. The same weekend that DQIX JUMPED.

Unless this sells more than 40,000 units next week, it's doubtful it's going to have some sort of massive legs.
