Nice boxart and black too, will stand oout fro mthe rest, I bet 50K FT and just over 150K LT.

I reckon:

100k FW (With Wii sales at 15k for that week)

200k LT

 

500k if released in the west, like Xenoblade and TLS

Nope, 40k max first week, but I'm thinking it will do less, possibly 20k.

Lifetime less than 100k.

Bets with Conegamer:

Pandora's Tower will have an opening week of less than 37k in Japan. (Won!)
Pandora's Tower will sell less than 100k lifetime in Japan.
Stakes: 1 week of avatar control for each one.

 I agree...

but I think xenoblade, TLS and this game could game 500K  america & europe...

something like 

250k america

200k eu

150 japa

------

600 K ww for the three of them... Not that bad honestly...

Perhaps, but TLS is already over 150k in Japan

And they aren't that bad. People expect EVERY.GAME to sell over 5 million in a DAY!!!! And if it doesn't it's a FAILURE! Just like the 3DS, for example...

But these games would be successful, and people deserve to play them. So I'm sure they'll find an audience and sell as well as they deserve!

I agree, I havent check the numbers for xenoblade nor TLS, but is really good that both are above 150k... And yes, I expect something between 500k or more for NA/EU... so 650k or above for new IPs should be considered a good success...

Why the pessimism? It looks very good and looks like it could be perfect for the Japanese market...so 100k seems likely IMO, unless you have proof otherwise...

@Menx- Preicsely. Nintendo would be stupid NOT releasing these games in the west.



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

That dude on the box looks familiar. I guess Noctis got so tired of waiting for Versus to come out that he jumped ship.

Holy shit, that is an AWESOME boxart.

Ha! So it's not just me, then!

It really is uncanny. Still a super hot box art, though.

Damn! Is that image from the Versus XIII boxart? It's as if it was traced right off! Somebody should search Pandora's cover for accidental Playstation logos



Until you've played it, every game is a system seller!

Have you got proof for your numbers?

It's an action game, not even Xenoblade that was a full scale RPG was able to do 100k first week. TLS barely managed to get over 100k with bundles. Don't predict things just because you want them to be true. It's not gonna happen, seriously.

Let's make a bet.

That's one bloody hot boxart mate and yeah, the guy sure has the striking similarities of the one on Square-Enix's versus game... That's it! I need to take a dive in some RPG goodness!
