Simple Question, how well is The Last Of Us going to do in Japan?

 

Do we have any Vgchartz users that know anything about how well it's doing over there?

Oh it should do around 100k ± 15k FW. That's what COMG leads us to believe and it would make sense with what The Last of Us did in NA and EU in comparison to Uncharted 3.

isnt it kind of odd for a game like the last of us to do 100k first week in japan?



What do other SONY 1st parties sell like in Japan?

200k lifetime for a western game is good... really good in Japan.

Yeah I was expecting 100k max LTD



I think it depends how much they try to make it appear like resident evil.

Make it seem like a resident evil knockoff (even though it isn't) might help it. IDK. maybe I'm high.

If they market the way it is here. 150K.

UC2 and 3 sold 200k each in Japan. Is that good? I wonder if the ND name and Uncharted history holds any weight. Not like it does in the west obviously, but is it a selling point?

I would say 200k is good for a non japan made game. Most western games don't sell so flash in Japan so I would be happy with around 200k.
