wenlan, the biggest sellers in Japan year on year have been Winning Eleven and Dynasty Warriors, both have struggled to put do even 1/3 on PS3 as the million they normally sell on PS2. Hot Shots Golf 5 compared to 3 is a joke, Virtua Fighter (Tekken and Sould Calibur watch out) bombed.
How much did Devil May Cry 3 sell? Silent Hill 4? Gran Turismo 4? Final Fantasy XII? Why should the next sequels on PS3 sell more than they did on the 22m userbase PS2?
