It does not change that it will be a flop, during the PS2 era sales of 100k would be enough to recover the budget, but not for a game with HD development. I correct myself, it will not reach 100k LTD with some luck it should reach 70k, as this series usually sells around 60% of LTD during its first week, and the movie could be helping it a lot. Now if could make the release in the rest of the world happen? They don't even need to dub the game, the franchise is so niche that subtitles should do it for a lot of people. |
I don't know, the Project Zero/Fatal Frame series has had enough fans that Nintendo bought a controlling chunk of the IP and this would be the third (fourth if you count Spirit Camera or whatever the 3DS AR game was called) released as such. It must do well enough for their usual budgets if Nintendo is willing to put out that many games in a fairly short amount of time since gaining control of the IP compared to most of their other IPs.
Although the quick release does make me wonder if they didn't cut corners and like the fourth game on Wii there will be some glitch or bug that they will use as the excuse as to not release it outside of Japan.
