If it debuts like that on its opening week, that'll translate to 56K. Not anything outstanding, but not horrible either. Heck, I'd argue that the average third-party game in Japan would be lucky enough to break 50K in its opening week (Monster Hunter 3 excepted of course, not to mention ToS2, DQS, Taiko).
As for whether it'll have legs, well, that ultimately will depend on how the gamers respond to it. It IS possible for games to start out with somewhat meh numbers but then go onto be long-term sellers. If the game gets enough favorable word-of-mouth, it may be lucky to do that.
