Forums - Sony - NGP Might See a Delay In Japan, Aiming for at least One Region by Years End

please be Europe/australia/nz region. America can wait 



Of Course That's Just My Opinion, I Could Be Wrong

Around the Network

With everything it does, Sony should launch in the US first. I caters to every type of gamer possible, plus the HD display.

Europe should be next, but I would try to get the two launches as close together as possible. Here's my personal (opinioned) breakdown of launch for the NGP.

December 10th, 2011 - US launch - 750,000 units for first two weeks.

February 5th, 2012 - UK launch - 400,000 units first two weeks.

February 20th, 2012 - Europe launch - 700,000 first two weeks.

April 27th, 2012 - Japan launch - 600,000 units first two weeks.

Well like I pointed out, it caters to every possible play style and consumer.

Playstation Suite and Android. New content always available.

North American gamers will eat up a true Uncharted, Killzone and Resistance.

Japan will get Monster Hunter, Phantasy Star, Final Fantasy and Yakuza games. I also see Sony making a strong push to bring Dragon Quest to the system.

Europe will eat up a similar list as the North American list.

Think about it:

Uncharted, Final Fantasy, Monster Hunter, LittleBigPlanet, Gran Turismo, Resistance, Killzone, Motorstorm and Socom heading to this platform, plus Android content. This will help sales.

I believe the Japan numbers are spot on. I'm not going to base my North American and Europe off of how the PSP did or is doing. Mainly because Sony has so much experience now and they are really looking at making the NGP as open software wise as possible.

I hope it's Europe then ;)

it'll be America for sure, they did the same thing for the European launch on PS3 by delaying that to spring of the year after, it would be great to see a worldwide launch on the same day though, but I don't think that's logistically possible 



let it be US. Then again, I gotta start saving up.

Never!

Where do you live? On the moon?

There is no chance NGP sales will be close to your numbers. You should know it better, sir.

The price will be higher than 3DS and if launching after the holiday rush in early 2012, even exclusive MH (i don't think so) and ports of the PS3-bestsellers at launch wouldn't be enough.

400t in UK in 2 weeks and Europe 700t? i call bullshit! UK is never >50% of Europe in gaming sales.

That's just dreaming boy, but hell ya it's allowed to dream. But seriously, these predictions made you look stupid, imo.



please europe^^ cant wait! ! ! !
