FF XIII and FFV XIII are going to be more of a system seller than i thought in Japan.

I'm really happy about DMC4....I know nobody really cares too much because it pales beside SSBB, but I am still happy to see a good franchise do well.

Wow. I am amazed at the numbers for Super Smash Brothers. Almost one million. Wonder how much more sales America will have.

I never said the sales were not amazing... I just noticed a trend...

I think FFXIII should be happy to open with 1 million consideing userbase, and yes, 1 million were be amazing... but not for a FF games... I think DWVII may have been around the same level... and Pokemon is the only other series that opens like that. I can't remember but I think G&S opened with over 2 million.

Edit: Ok I went and found a game that had crazy amazing opening - DQVIII - Wow

The game of this year in Japan, and in the wold too, this game sell the double than I expected.



MANUELF on 03 February 2008

Sorry for the double post, I can´t delete it.

The US launch should be huge. There is a lot more hype than SMG and there are a lot more Wii's compared to SMG's launch. It won't be as big as Halo 3 but it will have better legs.
