I preordered mine when I picked up Mass Effect 3 last week. The guy at the gamestop said he's beat it like twice. States he imported it from Japan and it's probably his favorite jrpg to date. Word of mouth got me to pre-order it.

Good to hear! I'd imagine that word of mouth will push sales for a while after release- because it is INCREDIBLY good IMO... Pre-orders this past week added another 11k, up to just over 160k now. 3 weeks to go...

 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

OP updated. Pre-orders as they currently stand:

 

Will be 5th or so when the pre-orders for next week come out. I reckon we'll be looking at nearly 200k pre-orders coming up to launch, Who would have predicted that?

This isn't really sales related, but I have a question about Xenoblade: I'm living in Europe, but I don't wanna play the European version! I don't like the voice over - at all! Can I, and how do I do to get and play the US version?! Thx for answer!



I'm on Twitter @DanneSandin!

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.

It is no different with the US version. The voices are the same as used in the european version.

To answer the question in this thread I think 100k first week for Xenoblade is plausible.

What's wrong with the English voiceover?

You sure? In the U.S. trailer it sounds as if it's different voice actors...

I don't really like what I've heard so far... It's that particular english accent that I don't find very fancy :P but the US trailer sounds a bit different... Perhaps there's just a difference between in game VO and cut scene VO...

Just play it in Japanese, problem solved.

I'm seconding this.  I never liked the English voice acting (though it has to be said that the English Melia is now the new companion in Doctor Who), but I loved the Japanese voice acting.

I'm loving The Last Story's English voices so far though
