130k FW, 260k LT



90.000 FW
200.000 LT



 

Face the future.. Gamecenter ID: nikkom_nl (oh no he didn't!!) 

I think it will do quite a bit better than Xenoblad, so I will predict double the first week and lifetime sales of that game.

So FW: 160k

Lifetime: 300k

140k FW

250k LT

It's sad really. It wasn't the best move to release it on the Wii but oh well. Perhaps it will exceed expectations.

Wasn't the best move? Would it be smarter for Nintendo to make a PS3 game or something?



140K FW

230K LTD



I guess it will be around 150k FW and 300k LT It's not Wii fault. The problem is Japanese people, they have dust inside their brains and they don't buy anything that does not follow the next rules:

· the software must be done by a Japanese developers (ok, the first rule is not a problem)

· the software must be a sequel of a stablished franchise like Monster Hunter, Dragon Quest, Mario or Pokemon ( The Last Story is a new IP so this rule ruins all king of hope of seeing this game achieving big numbers )

I hope I would be wrong...but I am afraid I am not...

That's not true. The recently released Ni no Kuni for the DS is the best example for this.
