from ign Bandai Namco wants to sell a lot of copies of its latest PS3 game. by Anoop Gantayat http://lt.dell.com/lt/lt.aspx?CID=18672&LID=425772&DGC=BA&DGSeg=DHS&DURL=http://www.dell.com/content/topics/segtopic.aspx/odg/odg_xps_video_2?c%3dus%26cs%3d19%26l%3den%26s%3ddhs"> February 23, 2007 - PS3 software hasn't exactly been crowding the top ten sales charts over in Japan. Even Virtua Fighter 5 made a one week appearance at the top (just barely beating out Wii Sports) then fell to oblivion the next week. The question is, when will a PS3 game hit the top 10 and remain there until it's sold a billion copies? That answer could be ours next week when Gundam Musou sees Japanese release. Bandai Namco and Koei held an insiders-only (that's the industry kind of insider, not the IGN kind) event in Tokyo today to mark the completion of this unlikely combination of Gundam and Dynasty Warriors. At the event, Koei cofounder Keiko Erikawa had this to say about the upcoming title: "We've made a fantastic game. Gundam Musou is the most ordered PlayStation 3 game, but it's just one tenth of the sales we're thinking of. For us, Bandai's Gundam is one million , and the Musou series is one million. We'd like to sell a total of two million copies." A Bandai Namco rep later lowered that forecast to one million worldwide sales. Sony Computer Entertainment Interactive Chairman Ken Kutaragi was also at today's event and, speaking about Gundam Musou, said "Second generation software has already come out. While a variety of things were said early on, including that development is difficult, we've already crossed into the second generation in half a year." Kutaragi also touched briefly upon the impending European launch of the PS3, stating that Sony has already shipped a million systems for the late March launch. It's still a bit early, so we presume that "shipped" doesn't mean shipped out to retailers. But before that, we'll apparently be getting a look at "second generation" PS3 software when Gundam Musou hits Japan next week. Check back here for impressions.
