Relaxe dude. It will have some legs and could reach 400 - 500k only in Japan. And if this game will launch in the west I can see it breaking the 1M. 8-)

I know it's not the best metric, but amazon.jp is suggesting the game really isn't going to have any legs.

Only long tail I can see it having is if the anime takes off.

The same like God Eater 2, it also dropped fast after the first week but still managed 440k units.

a) God Eater 2 was the first God Eater game on the platform - this is the second.  It's likely this one will be more front loaded than the last, if only slightly.

b) It managed 400k physical (ignoring for VGChartz constatracking) and you're suggesting 500k in Japan, and then another 500k in the west?

It should reach 400k with digital at least in Japan.  Western sales will be poor on Vita.

I still don't see a reason why it couldn't sell that good in the west. God Eater 2 hasn't been released in the west so God Eater 2: Rage Burst would be the first version here. And a lot Japanese oriented games did good in the west:
Gravity Rush did 90k in Japan and 360k in the west.
Final Fantasy X / X2 HD Remaster did 280k in Japan and 310k in the west.
Tales of Hearts did 90k in Japan and 170k in the west. 
Soul Sacrifice did 220k in Japan and 220k in the west.

Not to be that guy, buy nothing does well on the vita in the west. Chances are its sales will be poor on the vita in the west because it is usually the case with msot games.

Those are all established franchises, and yet you say this will outell all of those?

Your argument for why God Eater 2 can reach 500k in the west is to list a load of Japanese games which didn't reach 500k in the west?

Okay then.

Curious to see the FW sales of DQH, certainly we will see a great hardware boost for the ps4

Nope, they all did better (or equal) in the west than in Japan though they are Japan games.
God Eater 2: Rage Burst could do 400k in Japan, why not 200k in North America and 200k in Europe? Another 200k in the rest of the world and we have 1M. It is not as difficult as you think.
