Seriously FFXIII 2.5 million + in Japan? Lol so its attach rate will be 100%?
And MH3 won't flop just because Sony fans want him to.

 

 So you think by the end of 2009 PS3's install base in Japan will not increase at all? Interesting. 

 

 Well, if FF13 really will take another year for it to arrive the PS3 is in a lot of trouble. The only big game until FF13 and GT5 is RE5, but that will release on 360 as well, that right before that will have the release of Star Ocean.

Without major games, we can assume that PS3 will drop to its 5000 level again, so will only sell 5000 x 52 = 260.000 over the year, with maybe an additional 100.000 for game releases. This makes that PS3 won't be at 3 million yet end 2009. And as much as FF13 will sell a lot of systems, it won't sell a million PS3's. Attach rates more than 50% are not going to happen, not even for FF, so if trends continue I see 2 million as a max for FF in Japan.
