I suggest holding your hopes back a bit for the sales on this game.

While it's true the series has sold near MGS levels, the buying habits have been different. Just look at the last PS2 iterations - Yakuza 2 opened at 285k, with 750k LTD, while MGS3 opened at 494k, 850k LTD. We're not completely sure if the entire Yakuza audience is on the PS3. Not sure if the Yakuza fans are as hardcore as the MGS ones (I don't know much about the series).

Well, for this reason I'm expecting anywhere between 380-480k. I'd take a bet against 500k, I think...

The Yakuza series usually sells 300-400k and then the cheaper re-release usually pushes the game to 600-700k.

Yakuza: Kenzan! cheaper version was just released and it seems to be quite undertracked based off of Media Create.

And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,
Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."
