Look at the last SO for PS2. The game sells more in NA then Japan. If we ignore Europe for a moment (no sales data for previous SO games), these are my estimated SO4 sales:

Japan: 280K

NA: 680K

Total: 960K

White Knight Chronicles is a new IP. I think it will sell more than SO in Japan, but less in NA.

Japan: 450K

NA: 450K

Total: 900K

The two games should sell about even in Europe. So I predict SO4 to outsell WKC by about 60K.

 

While past sales of SO are nice look at user base at that time.

And also consider that 2 most recent jRPGs from SE on x360 were failures so this certainly damaged a bit sales potential of SO4.

IU and TLR weren't very hyped and got relatively poor reviews.  Star Ocean The Last Hope is getting a decent amount of hype for a JRPG not called Final Fantasy and if the previews are of any indication, the reviews will also turn out to be very good.
