If it's digital only, I doubt it'll even hit 1 million. If it's retail as well, it'll be somewhere between 1-2 million.

Less than 1m

lol you guys are funny...just like GT5 not sold over 5 mill and Heavy Rain not sold over 500k...really i mean REALLY how you can think a MGS main game on a Sony home console not selling over 1 mill...this is just like saying CoD MW3 will not selling over 20 mill WW...

the amount of people who said GT5 would sell ridiculously high amounts was a hundred times as high as the amount of people who said GT5 would sell 5mil. Don't even argue about that when more people thought it would sell 14-15mil than under 7mil. Its very easy to find ONE or TWO people who said a game would sell ridiculously low.  Heavy Rain did exceptionally well and even ps3 fans lowballed its lifetime sales.

If a psp port on the ps3 sells more than the actual psp game than ps3 owners are far stupider than I thought considering the amount of good games coming out over the next two years. My guess is if sold as a full game for $60 initially it will not pass 1mil. If sold for 20 bucks from the get go it could reach 2mil.

the main thing is that MGS is a home console franchise...Peace Walker is a main title in the MGS series...there are really really much gamers that didnt buy Peace Walker just because they dont want to play a MGS on small screen some cause they dont got a PSP the PSP sales are not the real sales...you know how bad piracy is on the PSP ... selling over 1 million is like a given!

So you got like 2-3 million gamers that only own a PS3 got MGS4 and loved it the MGS hardcore base that buy MGS no matter on which console!

And i highly doubt this will sell at 60$...like you said its a port...i think 40$ sounds plausible!

i am a big fan of mgs franchise , mgs is in my top 5 games of all time but i am realistic , this is a psp port lol

 

also i predicted 11 millions for gt5 in the prediction thread and i buy and liked heavy rain

do you want to make a bet?

i just write to you the same that i wrote to enrageorange :D

im not into bets...i never made one...i know that Peace Walker will sell over 1 mill and i know with a bet i could punish you but like i said im not into bets...hope you understand it...i wouldnt even bet if someone say "the next Halo will not sell over 1 mill...do you wanna bet" :D



I'd say a solid 2 Mil

Wait...it doesn't have trophies? Lame and they just lost a purchase.


its more lame that some wannabe-gamers just buy games cause of trophies "RollEyes"

 


its more lame that some wannabe "hardcore"gamers think they are better because they don't like trophies. (rolls eyes)


no i think you dont understand me...i dont hate trophies (i platinumed several games and enjoyed it of course)...i hate just guys who reduce a game cause of that...imagine if every big developer dont put trophies on it games in 2012...so you got games like Agent,FF Versus XIII,Last Guardian without trophies and games like Sonic Tennis & Hannah Monatana rides a pony with trophies...so you would buy the shitty games with trophies...so do you understand what my point is...you got the trophies but played the bad games and i got no trophies but played the best games...it aint about trophies its about the game and if you dont understand that than you are a "wannabe" gamer...i dont want to attack you but a normal guy with a brain would understand that!

No hard feelings...we here to discuss ^^



It's going to need some impressive grafix and trophies to reach 2 mil.

If it's just a port, then I doubt it'll reach a million.

Ports don't generally outsell the original console. I expect the Japan sales to be lower by quite a bit.



Yes!!! This is amazing news! Will  buy this. Absolutely love MGS!! Can't wait.

On a different note, does anyone have any news on a MGS ps3 collection? Or at least MGS2 and 3 being released/remastered for ps3? Is anything confirmed?

Lastly, I read an article a long while ago that had Kojima eluding to bringing trophy support to MGS4. Anyone have any news on this?

but i think you forgot that the original console is the PSP...you cant get more piracy than that PSP is dead everywhere except Japan...PS3 on the other hand was never more alive than now it already got a 5mill MGS on it...



I exept  for metal gear PW in ps3 MGS4-MGS PW in psp=3-4 millions



PS4 - over 100 millions let's say 120m
Xbox One - 70m
Wii U - 25m

Vita - 15m if it will not get Final Fantasy Kingdoms Heart and Monster Hunter 20m otherwise
3DS - 80m
