ES is targeted towards a Japanese audience so it could easily outsell the X360 version of the game where 360 install base is one quarter of PS3's install base. The game must outsell the 360 version in Japan. Anything else would be an epic fail

PS3 have a higher percentage of JRPG fans than X360 owners. Proof ?

Let's see (Japan Only):

Eternal Sonata (360) first week sales: 47,460     -    today 79,861

                                  360 hardware sold: 404,055   -    today 715,784

                                                  attach rate: 11,7 %     -    today 11,2 %

 

Eternal Sonata (PS3) first week sales: 40,000 (estimated)

                                  PS3 hardware sold: 2,372,286

                                                  attach rate: 1,7 %


PS3 version of ES could double the sales of 360 version. In Japan ? doubtful

X360 version of Eternal sonata has only sold 270k according to VGChartz sale data. So PS3 version selling 500k+ is possible. 360 data doesn't include Others numbers. 300k+ for PS3 version seems more likely

ouch !
