Um...I don't want to be a Debbie Downer here, but those are extremely unrealistic expectations. The sales show that the hype was mostly an online affair, nothing more. There are three huge releases coming up (KZ2, Halo Wars, and RE5) that will surely eat up many potential SF sales. Tekken 6 is also coming later this year, and T6 will surely cannibalize any holiday boost SF4 might've had.

SF hasn't been the king of fighters (no pun intended here) since the 16-bit era. This game will do well (2 mil LTD between both systems is my estimate), but there's no way it's going to be the monster that you predict.
