PS4: 180k

PS3: 120k

O_O
Such high hopes from you all, even the low end are saying it will be the best opening for a Persona game.

It should be if even a spin off like Persona Q can open with over 180k, with all the Animes in the last years Persona just seems to have grown quite a lot.

Persona has grown a lot since the last new mainline game, it's going to be on two platforms so some diehards will buy both versions, and if it still falls short I can just fill in the blanks with digital sales = 300k+ confirmed!

Well, as said in the OP the series is just gaining popularity, I mean Persona Q has the third best selling opening week of the series and its a spinoff that released on a platorm without a previous Persona title.

I'd say that having the PS4 version selling better than the PS3's is rather crazy.

Hm. I mean, it's definitely been on the rise, and with two platforms, I'd say around 250k.

I think most are too low. Below 300k isn't happening.

I predict 350k.

So no legs or its going on to crack 500k in Japan alone??

Yes 500k lifetime in Japan and first SMT game to reach over 1 million lifetime worldwide.
