With everything it does, Sony should launch in the US first. I caters to every type of gamer possible, plus the HD display.

Europe should be next, but I would try to get the two launches as close together as possible. Here's my personal (opinioned) breakdown of launch for the NGP.

December 10th, 2011 - US launch - 750,000 units for first two weeks.

February 5th, 2012 - UK launch - 400,000 units first two weeks.

February 20th, 2012 - Europe launch - 700,000 first two weeks.

April 27th, 2012 - Japan launch - 600,000 units first two weeks.

Man im doubting it does that good out the gate


Well like I pointed out, it caters to every possible play style and consumer.

Playstation Suite and Android. New content always available.

North American gamers will eat up a true Uncharted, Killzone and Resistance.

Japan will get Monster Hunter, Phantasy Star, Final Fantasy and Yakuza games. I also see Sony making a strong push to bring Dragon Quest to the system.

Europe will eat up a similar list as the North American list.

Think about it:

Uncharted, Final Fantasy, Monster Hunter, LittleBigPlanet, Gran Turismo, Resistance, Killzone, Motorstorm and Socom heading to this platform, plus Android content. This will help sales.

I believe the Japan numbers are spot on. I'm not going to base my North American and Europe off of how the PSP did or is doing. Mainly because Sony has so much experience now and they are really looking at making the NGP as open software wise as possible.

But are those games confirmed for launch? if they are then yea maybe
