Persona 5 will be on PS3 and PS4.  if it were released on 360, Wii U, and X1 how much do you think sales would increase?


If it was on PC, WiiU, XBO, PSV id say it would increase by 100% if not more.

Fair enough, did not think of PC to be honest.

I would guess 50% of sales would come from Japan, and other 50% from NA, EU, ROTW.

In Japan I would estimate breakdown would go 50% to PS3, 40% to PS4, 10% to WiiU and less than 1% to PC, 360 and X1.

Everywhere else estimate would go 60% PS4, 20% PS3, 10% to Wii U and 10% to PC, 360 and X1.

Let us use round numbers and say it sells 1 million in Japan and 1 million everywhere else (that would be a major success too).  So, on my estimates porting it to an additional four platforms accounts for 300K of those sales.

You can state think numbers would be different, but last generation really showed me what an uphill climb it is for JRPGs on Microsoft platforms. Unless you're a Final Fantasy keeping costs down and appealing to your base makes a lot of sense to me.
