Hard to say
On one hand, they have a 3.6 Million Seller hit in Japan with DQVIII...but that is also DQ.
The rest of their games (with the exception of Layton) all had modest sales with games like Jeanne D'arc, DC 1/2 and Rogue Galaxy, all falling into a 200k to 400k range. However, all these games were met with critical acclaim and praise, some more then others, so very good games are associated with Level 5.
Releasing during the Holiday period should help, although I think a December 18th release would have been better then December 25th. But I'm sure many people will use Xmas money to buy gifts, (possibly even get the game pre-ordered as a gift?) as gift exchange in Japan is generally on the 24th is it not? I'm not exactly an expert on Japanse customs for certain Holiadys.
So taking this into account mixed in with the fact this is the PS3's first big RPG and it will get tons of marketing and hype....
Lifetime Sales of 1.2 Million
