the irony is that all of a sudden you are an expert of the japanese market... all the others are system sellers so why wouldnt this one be?? it has traditionally sold very well in japan and good in america.. so so everywhere else... i already know what youre gonna say... the ps3 hasnt even sold a mill in japan yet.. yea okay thats fine.. but given this games tradition of selling well why wouldnt this be any different.. |
Guess what, chowderhead. This happens all the time. Resident Evil had a history of selling a million up to the third, and then suddenly RE4 can't sell a million in Japan on two platforms combined. Super Mario may be hot shit now but Mario Sunshine game couldn't muster a million like all the rest.
Past performance alone isn't in and of itself indactive of future performance. Everybody's Golf 5 is going to sell less than the previous games int he series, unless it can somehow get a 140% attach rate going. Even if it does push systems. Get your head out of your ass.
