FF XII sold 2.42 million in Japan on a userbase of around 20 million. Just to put things in perspective. I think when all is said and done there are going to be a lot of disappointed people in this thread.

 

And yet FFX Sold 3.02 Million in Japan alone on a far smaller userbase ( about 4-5 Million IIRC)

 

Given SE's current trend of releasing sequels and spinoffs for quick cash-ins I see very little indication of FF XIII being a return to form quality-wise.  It's not even out yet but already has two spinoff s of its own. 

As for FF X's sales, PS3 won't be anywhere near even 4 million in Japan when XIII releases.  I'm going to go out on a limb and predict max lifetime sales of 2 million for FFXIII in Japan.  If it were on the Wii then the sky's the limit, but it's not.
