But this won't be viewed as a warriors game by many. Heck, it apparently got like 40k preorders in the US (yes, I know that VGC preorders aren't reliable, but still) I thonk it's obvious that it'll do more than 200k lifetime in the west, and it doesn't seem like it'll do that in JP. I'll gladly eat crow om this if it somehow sells worse in the west.

I have no idea what Koei has projected for the game, but a Warriors selling better in the West than in Japan will be of interest to them.

It would be very interesting, and I think the Zelda brand is strong enough in the West to make it happen.

I do wonder if it'd make them contemplate maybe doing some more western oriented Warriors games, possibly of like European historical stuff (Battle of Hastings etc) or even early US wars.
