I don't see it reaching freedom numbers in Japan. A lot of the fanbase is still on PSP.

Not to mention that people will need to buy a CCP for it, and that might cut off some sales.

Worldwide however, it all depends on how well Capcom can market it to the west. The NA and EU sales jussttt might give it the boost it needs. (Very unlikely though.)

Even without the Circle Pad Pro, it controls way better than the PSP versions. CPP is not necessary.

@OT, it's hard to see it outselling Portable 3rd in Japan, but maybe it can beat Portable 3rd globally if it's localized in the west, since P3 never was. That'll get it to second. It'll be a tough climb to get that high, never mind another half-million to beat Portable 2nd G / Freedom Unite's global figures.

its crazy how MH3U a game that is an upgrade(not original or wat ever you call it) is already at 1.84mil on 3DS and it'll climb barely over 2mil(selling 7-10k per week now) and with the help outside of japan, this game will do 2.5mil minumum. MH4 is bound to do a whole other level compare to MH3U imo. Minumun sales I think will be 4.5mil, I think it has a shot to be #1
