Can somebody explain this? Is this just a prediction? (saw on gaf) http://www.kyoto.zaq.ne.jp/dkbkq103/yso/

With holidays and YW third version approaching better have plenty of stock for Pokemon than facing supply problems again.

Predictions from YSO give a range for next week's top sellers

[3DS] Pokemon Omega Ruby / Alpha Sapphire (wk2) = [3DS] Pokemon X / Y (wk2)
[PSV] Phantasy Star Nova (wk1) = [3DS] Etrian Odyssey Untold: The Millenium Girl (wk1)


Dont kno how accurate that is but for PSN to be less than half of GE2 vita (266k) in FW sales? So under 133k? That sounds hella wrong O.o

Can't help but think that those numbers are awfully low.

ETA: Nevermind my lack of reading comprehension skills, I thought those were sales projections.

It sounds accurate to me.

 For real, the big holiday title! I think many expected 200k+ FW. I guess it aint a big deal... Right!!?? I dont think this game was to do as well like previous entrys (im guessing here btw)

Seems OR/AS really has some luck on the wider market. If it outsold X/Y (which it won't) I would have some hope in the world.

Also, Newkai is mind boggling. Level-5 better give this series as good care as possible.

Tales numbers are zesty. Anyone got numbers for Tales comparisons?

133k is a tad on the low side imo. Anywhere from 150k-200k would be expected comparing to Vita's top 5 games in Japan.

As for Pokemon ORAS, it really doesnt surprise me. Its living up to the standards of remakes whilst XY did alright but not great for a new main entry.

Also it begins?? GE2 Rage Burst has appeared O_O

Nice late performance for SSB.

How's Etrian Odissey doing?

And? It doesn't matter if it's the big holiday title. What it matters is the hype and the interest for the game. And the hype for Phantasy Star Nova is nowhere near the interest that God Eater 2 had last year. I would say that even Freedom Wars was more hyped.
This past week commercials and demos started in shops, and fortunatly is looking better. But I wouldn't expect more than 150k FW.

Freedom wars was definitely a surprise hit! It did far better than most expected. 

As for PSN, i'll take your word on it. Im just saying months ago many including myself thought it be a huge deal. Its still big, dont get me wrong but not was wat many expected (awhie back)
