ToV and BD both had awesome legs, so it's possible that a supply-strapped SO4 could see very good legs, and double it's sales over it's lifetime. Let's give it a week to see what happens to it's legs before passing a lot of judgment. As for hardware, the 360 is experiencing diminishing returns, as the average sales per week is picking up. Every console sees this. If a Wii game launched, and sold a similar number of software units, it may not see a boost at all. If you look at the hardware sales after a 'big' software title launches, you can see that as the HW install base grows, it takes more and more software units pushed to equal a hardware spike. This is normal, folks. Now, having said that, I think the 360 should see hardware sales over 10k for the next 2 months, or so. 2009 is blowing every other year out of the water for the 360. |
But there's a very simple thing that all the games you didn't mention having good legs have in common with SO4, they all have the Square Enix stamp on them. I really don't think you're going to see legs on this one just like the other SE JRPG's for every system.
