In Japan Final Fantasy X sold 1,906,152 copies its first week according to VGChartz and PS2 hardware jumped to 175,118 for the week!
Since the PS2 hardware was actually under 5 million at that point, being roughly 4.9 million i would imagine that Final Fantasy XIII should either do the same as X (since they are both going to be the first Final Fantasy on new hardware and this always results in higher sales) or better since the PS3 audience in Japan are starved of good and highly known JRPG's
I would predict 2.2 million sold first week in Japan with PS3 sales lifting to 150,000 consoles sold! This is all based on how the Slim will raise the installbase in Japan due to the price-drop also
