I predict 20k-25k FW in EMEAA.

I'll get it once it's localized in NA...

Good reply. However, surely if you wanted a game badly enough you'd just import it anyway? Different situations call for different measures, I suppose. I just don't want this game to go all Red Steel 2 and flop due to piracy. I really, really worry it will. 

To expand on Wagram's reply- http://www.thehut.com/games/platforms/nintendo-wii/xenoblade-chronicles/10501221.html (that's a very good price BTW, around $35-$40).


Thank you! Preordered! Although honestly, I'm not entirely sure if I'll end up re-buying if this eventually sees a North American release.



Proudest Platinums:
1. Gran Turismo 5
2. Persona 4 Arena
3. Wipeout HD
4. Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2
5. Super Street Fighter 4

I am going to wait till october to buy it from anywhere available, at that moment Nintendo should confirm that the game is not comming to America or the other way, and also I should have unlock my Wii to play region free. By the way that and The Last Story will be my last Wii original games, after the console is open I will never buy an original game from them, also I am buying a PS3 this christmas and will never look back (if the games are not comming, otherwise will buy the PS3 but still look back).

When it flops in EU they will put that as an excuse for not selling it in America.

You reckon they'd do anything else?

No, but at least they could use an excuse so Reggie doesn't get fired.

I understood the shipments at D1 will be 30k standard edition and 8k of bundles with the red CC Pro, so 60k FW would be impossible. Still I think with all the talking the game will sell pretty well, 38k in the whole EMEAA is easy to reach, it could be sold out 100-150k LTD in EMEAA is possible.


It's actually 38k for France, not EMEAA.

I'll import if there isn't news of a NA localization in a little while. Maybe not day 1 though.


Oh, that makes more sense, even if this means the first shipment could be the only one.



CURRENTLY PLAYING: Xenoblade (Wii), Super mario 3D land (3DS), Guild Wars (PC)

I doubt they'll be only 1 shipment...I just don't know. As long as we get TLS as well (and maybe Pandora's Tower) soon, these 3 games, Tales Of Graces and Abyss, I'll have my JRPG fix for some time :D
