"I say: FW BL - 400K, BB - 250K"
Seriously, wtf?? Bloodborne can do close to that in Japan alone

So, you believe that a sequel to games that did about 500K and 350K lifetime on 8-9 times the install base can do that kind of numbers in first week on PS4. We can even see that the interest for the game is in decline.
I think many people here overestimate Bloodborne. A lot.

@Bold: Bloodborne isn't a sequel. Demon's Souls also managed 350k lifetime way back in early 2009 in Japan only. Then it was a new entity. Now it has an established fanbase. Dark Souls II did 260k on PS3 FW in Japan only and 590k WW. Why would Bloodborne fall by a HUGE amount to 250k globally? Look at sales of exclusive PS4 software (and 3rd party software for that matter) at this point. Do you see PS4 games selling less than PS3 games despite the huge install base difference? No. Why? Because install base is not everything.

I know it's not a direct sequel, but it basically is sold to the exact same audience of first three games. I basically consider it a part 4 of a franchise.
Nevertheless, of course I could be wrong, but I simply cannot see the hype for that game. Of course, I understand it has its fanbase, but I cannot see it sell on par with other PS4 games, exclusives or not, because it will not appeal to anyone outside the established niche.

How is it niche when it sold millions of copies??!! Plus like I said before, people like pewdipie even loves the series. How is it niche???
