Unless its online somehow caught on bigtime in Japan, expect a massive drop. Sub-30k is highly likely, I think.
@markers: I'm not sure about that. JRPG's / games in general are extremely front loaded in Japan - likely even worse for this game, since it released at the busiest time of the year. If it sells under 25k, it'll start tracking under Rogue Galaxy (.36m), at which point legs will have to carry it up. The PS3 userbase is small, and generally the losing consoles see the worst legs. On the other hand, the online component may convince people to hold onto the game (lacking in other JRPGs), so who knows...
Still, the game has already done very well. I didn't expect it to top 300k lifetime (that's where I capped its sales at).
