On a related note: Ouedan 2 is wayyy too high vs MC data. MC has it barely cracking the top 30, and it's in the top 10 here. Maybe Forza and Ouedan switched places accidently? Also, if Forza 2 really did do 17.5k or so, that would mean that after opening day of Shinbi's reported 5-7k, that it ended up selling 2.5-3.0x the opening day. With numbers like that, could we see some sort of hold for an actual WESTERN game?

After catching a bit of flak the past few days about Forza sales, it turns out you and I might be pretty close to right on this one, MrStickball.

So, after 17k or so of sales in three or so days, where do you expect it to finish LTD? I predicted 75 or 90k, can't remember without looking. I think you were somewhere in the same vicinity.

BTW, I really think this game is taking off in the US. Everyone I know bought this game. I'm curious to see how Europe is reacting to it.

Lets not jump to conclusions too fast. We don't know for sure if those 5-7k where correct for the first day... it could have been 15k for the first day and 2k for the other two days?  Or how accurate do you actualy think those first day numbers are?

If it shows good numbers after the first full week, I could see it doing well. And if the trusty bell week is as slow as this week is, I could actualy see TB getting one of the top spots. If it manages to sell some systems with it, maybe some of the new users also feel like getting forza, you never know :p

Just pure speculation though, both could very well bomb completely also as far as I know.
