My lord, how many of you are like new to gaming this gen. I swear the number of people going around talking about Minna has 300k customer preorders and DQ:S has 250k customer preorders make me want to puke.
Guys these are retailer orders. Meaning there will be that many games shipped for opening day.....Okay? Christ there are only 950k PS3's in Japan homes right now, and you think 300k have already preordered the game? Use your head, if that were the case, then by the time the game launched it would have about 450k preorders alone. Add that with walkins and your predicting 550k to 650k sales first day on an installbase of 990k. And first week would be something like 750k.
Now Im sure that would be nice....but you really need to be more realistic with your attach rate assumptions here. Thats so far fetched that you shouldnt need us to clarify it for you.
