Maybe this will force Sega to revisit the real series and make my 15-years-waiting PSV dream come true! Soul Calibur isn't a huge franchise - no PS2 Inteneration reached 200k LTD sales, and SC1 on DC sold 170k first week, and 288k LTD. SCIV is at 90,000 after Day 1, and should reach around 120,000-150,000 before the week is out, assuring that SCIV is the bigges-selling SC in Japan. And FFIV was never big - yet it should sell 30-35k first week. Not uber, but considering what retailers bought, it's a good number. Now I just wonder how the X360 will do concerning HW numbers. |
It also helps that Phantasy Star Portable has many similarities to Monster Hunter(a series that everyone knows, has been a huge hit in Japan)
