Brilliant :) glad its doing so well, it deserves to

Lets hope it shows some strong legs too.

FFXII had mediocre legs and there isnt NA and Others weekly data for FFX so lets hope so :) 

the only data for FFX we have is some vague statement on wikipedia saying it did just less than 1 million in its first NPD (or jsut a little over).

yeah i couldnt find much either, and there isnt weekly data for FFX-2 either, only JPN data, oh well, will just have to wait and see :)

well from what I can see FFX-2 couldn't have had the kind of week 1 FFX did....it didn't have that kind of hype

We know for sure FF12 & FF9 had a lower week 1's than FFX.

FF7 did 350K in its first NPd (but was massive due to word of mouth)

The only thing I find hard to believe is that FF13 bested FF8's week 1

as FF7 was a BREAKOUT SUCCESS

then FF8 was hyped to the heavens like the 2nd coming....especially with the 9.9.9 special date thingy! (in the US anyway).

All speculation aside....its clear the game is a massive sales success.
