But Kingdom Hearts is pretty damn big in Japan...

OT: Probably not, it might reach higher western sales than XIII though, depends on the quality.

Kingdom hearts is not that big in Japan... lol. It's about moderate maybe but not big. You need to look again at the sales figures of the series. The PS2 ones were the only ones to really do great.

Yeah, those were the mainline games...both 1 and 2 easily cleared a million, that's big for Japan, very big. If you don't consider KH big in Japan then you could basically say that Resident Evil isn't big either.

um.. have you seen the sales figures for Resident Evil vs Kingdom Hearts? Kingdom hearts had two games hit over 2 million and 7 hit over a million. While resident Evil has 8 hitting over 2 million where as both Resident Evil 4 and 5 sold more than the best selling Kingdom Hearts.  Resident Evil is FAR bigger than what Kingdom Hearts is. There is no competition there. Even in Japan, the game is far more popular than Kingdom Hearts.
