I hate to say it but 20k first week in the us then downhill from there



Getting an XBOX One for me is like being in a bad relationship but staying together because we have kids. XBone we have 20000+ achievement points, 2+ years of XBL Gold and 20000+ MS points. I think its best we stay together if only for the MS points.

Nintendo Treehouse is what happens when a publisher is confident and proud of its games and doesn't need to show CGI lies for five minutes.

That's the most realistic guess so far, and this is coming from Okami fan #1.

It will do better than NiGHTS, so maybe 250k if it's lucky.

As for Okami selling 1 million if it was on the Gamecube...

Maybe, if it was made by Nintendo. Otherwise, it would have sold less than 150k.

Also, Okami's worldwide sales are in the 400-500k range, Capcom just had high standards since it was such a hyped game.

I think it has a chance of breaking 1 mil. Capcom didn't say they wouldn't advertise, just that it wouldn't advertise on tv.

That said, 350k is more likely for first year.

I'm going to say 200K LT WW.

Unless instead of artistic dog, they use a cuddly dog with a baby as the cover art. Then it will be a multi-million seller.



Soriku (Feb 10/08): In 5 years the PS3/360 will be dead.

It's hard to say ... Being that there are (approximately) 5 Million Zelda fans who own a Wii, I think that 500,000 to 1 Million units for Okami is possible being how similar the two games are and how unlikely it is for another Zelda (or adventure game in general) to be announced before Okami is released.

Fingers crossed for 500k



My Games of 2011:

The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword

Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

Super Mario 3D Land

Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception

I plan on buying it but it's prospects make me a little nervous. If even a portion of all Zelda owners actually buy it, as opposed to talk about buying it, then it will do fine. If they don't...........



Zucas on 27 March 2008

500k and higher depending on marketing and price.



Gamerace on 27 March 2008

Hmmm.... this one could go either way. It could be totally overlooked like it was on the PS2, or all those Zelda fans could eat it up.

I think this one has huge potential. Especially with the brush mechanic and the Zeldaesque adventure. But the art style is far from mainstream, and playing as a dog (I know it's a god but joe blow doesn't) won't appeal either.

My guess is it follows Zack & Wiki into sleeper hit status selling a small but consistant 5-10k per week for a long time. 500k ww outselling the PS2 original.
