Not to mention Capcom tends to have way high expectations. Look at their Dark Void or LP2 expectations. They even shipped 600k+ copies of Bionic Commando when it only broke 300k.' lol, March is Q4 financial year 2008. They were still praising sales for Q2 of 2009. That's 3 quarters. Like I said, their Q3 2009 report should be worth a laugh. |
You can probably expect plenty of praise for MH3 in it's 3rd quarter as well. It'll be quiet this coming quarter though, maybe another shout-out if subscriptions continue to beat expectations like last quarter.
In Japan it's already done it's job really though. Capcom won't have another console game that comes close to the same sales until the inevitable Monster Hunter 3G on Wii later next year.
