If ARF doesn't break, 100k it's a total dissapointment. MH3 will be just as big as the PSP versions, if not bigger


I don't expect ARF to come close to 100K, but it should sell a solid 75-80k if its legs hold up.  Even so, the debut number is pretty good.

Err isnt that close 100k? Just saying...

My expectations a little lower for ARF. Maybe 50k-60k with legs. I highly doubt 100k in Japan alone. New IP on a console. Thats just asking for trouble but thats Wii and why its sales usually look like shit in Japan.

Only game to break this was WKC but dunno how huge the marketing for that was.

WKC had some good marketing and released at Christmas, but Arc Rise also had some good TV adverts and supposedly a better game on a console with more than double the userbase of PS3.

 

So it's a wash really.

From what I saw the ARF tv spots were terrible......
I also dunno how much either WKC or ARF commercials actually got aired. Ive seen commercials for Wii games on the internet but i see more PS3 and 360 comercials on TV. Dunno if its the same in Japan.

I also had no idea ARF was suppose to be a better game. Unless a large amount of people said that I dont think you can really say that. As for the userbase its still new IP so ARF has disadvantage still and  WKC was a miracle imo. Great for WKC though.
