...To be fair, the Playstation 3 *does* have that 4:1 lead over the X360 in Japan...So it should sell a little bit better, no?

If it does only sell ~100k first week, I think that's pretty bad, given how much this game has been hyped by Sony fans. Time will tell, though, if it's true, and if it has legs.

 

 4:1?

2,644,591

vs

856,307

That's less than 3.1:1

 

My bad. I thought the PS3 had already passed the 3m mark in Japan.

@Steven - Go look at all of the JRPG arguments that have been lobbied about WKC. Many (and I mean many) Sony fans argued that WKC was going to have a massive opening, and blow the doors off of what JRPGs have sold in Japan. If 100k is true, than it's certainly not the case.

 

but its still irrelavent...you didnt answer my question....how are sony fans on the internet a substantial source to determine what a company deems worthy sell through of THEIR product...

And no, if a game sells 90% of its initial shipment it is almost exactly what the company expected to sell...its silly to use fans expectations when determining a "flop" in terms of product......use your own judgement....you dont have to apply all the opinions and variables...

To me, 99% of xbox owners can say X game will be huge, but if its not logical to me, the shipments arent hi and the developer/distribution companies sell what is expected to them it doesnt matter if 99% of kids/adults anyone on the internet says...its the business and those people who should be the focal point of a product "flopping"

I love my PS3 just as you love your Xbox, but to get in pissing matches about product sell through based on other owners posts is silly imo. be your own logical debater.

You do a lot of research on your own, id expect you to be able to step back and not have to resort to forum posts from users as your main point for product sell through.
