If it releases xmas 2008 in Japan the ps3 should have a userbase of atleast 5M HARDCORE gamers, the sought of people who go out and buy FF games first week. You can say the PS2 had a userbase of 20M, but FF fans are mainly hardcore gamers so would have already bought a PS3 for FFXIII or will buy a PS3 for the game. |
How do you figure?
The PS3 has been out for (nearly) 11 Months and has only sold 1.2 Million units in Japan and the low software sales implies that quite a few of these people bought it as a Blu-Ray player; over the next 13 months the PS3 will be lucky to sell an additional 2.5 Million units in Japan which would also be made up of quite a few people who bought it as a Blu-Ray player.
Basically, the PS3 will be lucky to have 3 Million gamers in Japan by the end of 2008 ...
