By Summer 2010, the PS3 will have sold 5 to 7 million copies in Japan while the 360 won't break 1.5 million there.

So you're saying over the span of less then a year... a console will sell 2 to 4 million units in one region and sell a copy of each one of the console owners... and the console has sold just over 3 million units over the 2 and a half years it's been out? .... BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA


    Excuse me, but could you tell me when during those two and a half years the PS3 saw the release of one Gran Turismo game and two Final Fantasy games, didn't think so.

<_< the GT games were bundled with a system that was in it's prime and market leader, it won't be quite as epic as it was for the PS2. 

Here's a bit of information...

Dragon Quest VIII - Japan 3.68

Final Fantasy XII - Japan 2.42

Final Fantasy X - Japan 3.02

How can a series that barely sold 3 million on Japans biggest console install base ever sell 7 million units on one of the smallest?  It's statistically impossible, and further more Dragon Quest's main series is more popular in Japan and it's going to the Wii, so where's your astronomical statistically impossible sales prediction for that game?

 


     I didn't say either Versus or XIII was going to have 7 million sales in Japan.  But, I do think both XIII and Versus will have sales very close to, between, or more than X and VII (VII had 3.97 million sales on a console with a smaller user base than the PS2).  Games move consoles and just as it moved PS1 and PS2 FF will move PS3s.
