How are we defining success?

Sales, Reviews or Both?

Because ToV is looking like it will finish with 80+% review averages, but I'm not sure if the Worldwide total will ever crack 500k.

Well so long as it sells >600k between the U.S and Japan its a success because Naznatips will owe me some Wiiware! xD

Well its shaping up to be a success but we won't really know till next week. I just felt like giving this thread a bump.

 

Don't forget about Europe(even though ToV doesn't get released there until 2009. ToV sales could suprise us(in a good way I might add) and we can't be sure until we see actual sales numbers for the game.

 

 

I just wonder if a 2009 release might cause ToV to get lost in the shuffle in Europe

 

ToV isn't going to sell very well in Europe as most JRPGs don't sell that great there.
