As for Gundam Mosou, Namco-Bandai and Koei worked jointly to produce the game ... Koei said that they expected the game to sell 2 Million copies while Namco-Bandai expected 1 Million; when complaining about sales of the game Namco-Bandai said that they expected it to sell "at least" 500,000 copies which (surprisingly enough) was the same value that Namco-Bandai clamed was required to break even on a game.

I do remember them saying it would sell about 2 million copies. They said the two properties (Gundam and Dynasty Warriors) merged should yield that kind of return.

And thus the reason the game is being ported to 360 and coming to the US as multi-platform now.

 

 

I noticed that. I'm assuming this will be a rule of thumb for third party games that don't sell well on either platform.
