well I disagree completely
FF12 was released in the month Ps3 was released....also remember FF9 and its low sales....well it had the same problem as FF12 (released when the next generation playstation was out)
so that reason is void imo.
MGS4 has proven that PS3 games can sell almost as well as previous iterations
also you have to see it will be the only important JRPG on PS3..so all fans will flock to it.
My predictiions are simple:
Japan - 2.5 million
Others - 3 million
NA - 3 million |
Of course, that is why I compared it mostly to X. Also MGS4 was possible, do you really believe that FFXIII will have such large attach rates? 25% vs 90/100% That is one of the reasons why I don't believe square enix will release it this year. The ps3 needs a much larger install base in japan, or they will have to make it even more popular in the west, with the cost of japanese sales. Also I highly doubt others will sell 3mln. X only sold 2 mln, and VII only sold 2.7 mln.

Don't sleep on the "others" region. This gen around, ps3 has seen some of its best sales in "others" not America or Japan. The others region is the growing market while hardcore gaming is almost saturated in NA and JP

Well others have never been really big in FF sales, but it still possible that sales increase in that region.
@cwbys21 FF games never had large legs, and usally get most their sales in the first month or two. I don't see it being on shelves for 24 months going to help it reach too far.
