OK 300K for USA might be a bit ambitious, but I reckon you're lowballing NA there a bit with only 170K. Only 25K more than Japan with close the double the install base. It is probably right that proportionally Japan will like this game more than NA, but I don't think it will be that disproportionate. The attach rate for Japan FW, retail only, is ~6.5%. 170K means a NA attach rate of about 4%. I would think an attach rate of more like 5% compared to Japans 6.5% would be more like it, so 200K should be a lock for NA. I'm still going to go with about 500K FW retail. If RoW contributes only 30K then that would be a very poor showing for a close to 1 million install base.
