It sold over a million on a dead console in Japan...  Plus I'm sure the fanbase was expecting at least a PSP version.  If Square (Or Capcom) were to say "PS4 only" it will sell 3 million on PS4 because there's no other option for the title.  They can't expect a 3DS/Vita title.  Same with Monster Hunter, if Capcom were to say Monster Hunter 5 for PS4 only (Which is looking likely) it will sell 3 million on PS4.

stop trolling.  How in the hell is the wii a dead console in Japan in 2009?  Bottom line about monster hunter is it will only sell 3 million on a portable console.  There is no evidence that a home console version will sell anywhere close to that.  It is popular because it is played with friends on wi-fi.  The portable version will sell more even if it comes out afterwards as a port.

Selling slightly above the PS3 isn't dead?  Or was the PS3 selling gangbusters in Japan in 2009?  Monster Hunter will sell 3 million on whatever platform it lands on if that's the only platform it will have.  Same with Dragon Quest.  You're also assuming there will be a portable port for either franchises from now on.
