Great thread Rob, someone on the other thread mentioned that Resident Evil 4 has sold 1.8 mil on the Wii. RPGs are MUCH more popular in Japan. so i think this has a chance for at least 2mil, and will do 3mil in Japan.

I really hope it can do those numbers in Japan. Final Fantasy needs to be beaten into the ground, Square-Enix facing no competition has led to laziness, The Last Story doing well will be good for the JRPG genre.

hahaha, yes it woud be. but like i mentioned before, i think it can beat FF12, and FF13. but not FF8, 10 or 7. i think its more important that this game get a high critical reception. like a 92 plus metacritic, and high Famitsu, and western reviews. because Wada and Square will take notice of those things.

the only problem with the western release is that the Wiis casual userbase, are there enough users who will buy this. i think in Japan this is not a problem, but in the west, it could be problematic imo.
