| samus aran rules said: I still say that people expected to much of SF4 saleswise in Japan. If the PS3 version could reach 100k first week I think that would be nice. Nothing earthshattering but still ok. Sadly 2d fighting don´t sell that much anymore. What do you guys think, will SF4 be a big seller in the west? I think it will do better in the west than in Japan, what do you think? |
I agree completely. The western markets have a userbase of roughly 45 million compared to under 4 million in Japan for the HD consoles. And the second reason is that while arcade gaming has faded in the west, it is still popular in Japan and I suspect that a lot of people in Japan won't be making the purchase on a console because they have already played it a lot on the arcades.
