So the real question should be 'was the probable 1 year exclusivity money hat worth it'?


No that question is only valid when the 360 gets a year exclusive.

Actually, it looks like FFXIIIi is really the best selling Ultimate Hits debut for the series. :P

 

ALL OF THEM ARE RELEASED IN THE SAME PLATFORM FF XIII made a 360 debut 

FFXIII didn't make a 360 debut.  FFXIII International Ultimate Hits did.  Yeah, there's a difference...

The 360 got games like Tales of Vesperia, Eternal Sonata and Star Ocean 4 exclusive for a year in Japan.

And some games like The Last Remnant will stay exclusive forever it seems.

So I'm not condoning the idea of the 360 getting a game exclusive for a year.

You're focusing too much on platform here, and not enough on the actual release itself.  This is an Ultimate Hits release, they never have big debuts, and honestly I think this title would've done similarly low on PS3 instead.  Possibly worse even, considering the original can be had for a quarter the price new still.

When I first heard about FFXIII International going to 360, I figured we'd see a sizable first week and probably a respectable ltd (200k plus).  Once I found out it had no new content (unlike every previous International FF rerelease) and was being positioned as an Ultimate Hits release, I predicted a first week pretty damn close to what it actually did.  Again, there's no real incentive here for fans to rebuy, that's the fundamental issue at play, not it's platform.  Had FFXIIIi had additional content, it'd have sold more than this.  Had 360 gotten FFXIII day-and-date with the PS3 last year, it'd have sold more than this.  Had FFXIIIi released on PS3 instead in the same state, it probably would've sold about the same.  It's a problem with the release, not the platform.

Lol, Kinect ranked above FF13? Well those are some depressing numbers for FF.
