Forums - Nintendo - How much do you think Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World will sell?

I think I could easily reach a million since the Gamecube prequel sold 1.2 million copies worldwide.

IF the game is published by nintendo it will easily break 1 million, since there are no Jrpgs on the Wii.

Personally i think it will be @ 600k

I think it will sell at least 1,5 million, probably around 2 million.



The_vagabond7 on 26 February 2008

hard to say. I think it will eventually (as in not in the first 6 months) sell a million, but I think it may be a crawl to get there. Though really, I'm not even sure if it will get there. Unless the unlikely happens and a third party game gets some decent hype leading up to it's release this fall.

Honestly, after seeing the kinds of numbers JRPGs have been doing this gen, I just have a pessimistic view of it. Hopefully I'll be wrong.

Tos:dotnw is definitely a very important 3rd party rpg for the wii I hope it sells atlest million.

Here is a quote from Takahashi:
"We're excited to be one of the first big role-playing games on the Wii and think the game has a lot to offer to longtime series fans and those who are new to Tales or even RPGs in general"

1.58 mil in less than a year? Don't think so.


 it will be lucky to break 1 mil

I'm thinking it will end up in the range of 1-1.5 million worldwide. That being said, I really don't know if it will even break 1 million by the end of the year. One thing is for sure, it's going to need a bit of time in NA and Europe before it reaches that milestone. Since we don't know when it will launch in NA and Europe, it's hard to say what it will do this year.

One thing is for sure, it won't do massive amounts in Japan. DQ Swords is just now hitting 500k in Japan, and (I think) the next biggest third party game there is RE: UC at around 250k. If something with the words "Dragon Quest" in the title is taking so long to hit 500k in Japan, I don't think a Tales game will suddenly be a 500k seller. I'd be (pleasantly) surprised if ToS reaches 500k in one years time there, and I actually expect it to end up below that milestone for it's lifetime in Japan.

I think is a million seller in early 2009 and lifetime sells 1.5 millions.
